    Hi all, well it's time to get the bike out of hibernation.
    Question, does anyone know the diameter of the valve pads/shims on the 600 8 valve airhead fitted to XJ600 / Seca
    I have none to measure and want to know before I start, any help appreciated.

    According to parts manuals
    Xj and fz all use the 29mm shims that are the same as BMW "k" bikes.
    Your 600 seca uses shims along with v-max, xt350, royal star up to 2013
