Howzit guys. Had my Vara's valve clearance done. Engine runs beautifully, nice and even for a change. Not hunting rev's when idling. I am so impressed with the bloke I used, and he didn't try to rip me off either.

I've noticed that I don't get to high speed as easily as before I had the valves done. I used to get to 200 in a flash even when riding 2 up! Today I was battling to go beyond 180 riding solo...
The performance however has improved on lower speed. I really need to get on the tank to keep the nose down from pull away on up. Will the top end speed return with time or should I have my "yster" dino tuned?  Or just enjoy the new found power...

What do you guys think?
