Hi all:

I posted a few weeks ago that I had acquired a 94 K1100lt with about 83k miles on it.
The records show that at 60k miles the previous owner had the splines lubed and the valves set.
Are the above items something I should do again now?
Was out for a ride today and the K runs and shifts perfect.
I am very impressed with this bike!

Thanks
Dean
(this is a great site by the way!)

I wouldn't worry about a spline lube. I'd have the valves adjusted at the factory recommended intervals (every 12,000 miles), so you're probably overdue for that, but I doubt it's a huge concern, they probably aren't much out of spec.

By the way, did the Sharks beat the Calgary flames tonight?

Didn't have a chance to watch.
