    Lost the spring retainer for the headlight bulb. Looking at the microfiche it doesn't seem to be available separately. Has anyone found a successful replacement? Or can someone post a picture for theirs so I can attempt to match it.

    I have 2009 Yamaha FZ6R. I am doing the second valve clearance check. (80,000 kms, first was at 40,000 kms). The numbers are on the tight side. Three of the exhaust shims are .008 and the min is .009. The .008 feelings more like a .0085. I have heard that as the mileage gets higher the need...
