Adjusting the valves on my Steamer.  I need the following shims if any one has extras:

two 2.25
one 2.35
one 2.5

Thought I would ask hear before turning to my local Hoodat / Kamakazi / Susuckme dealer who will only tell me he has to order them.  Let me know how much.  Thx

What sizes do you have to trade?
Mostly commuting around town on the Steamer these days.

Sorry man. None of those are around the sizes I could use in the next year or so.

I went to my Triumph dealer and they required $7 AND my old shim in trade. Cheaper route is to buy on ebay. I was getting them for around $5 each without trade. Do you want me to get you the sellers I used? Let me know I can look them up.

Found some at my local Yamaha dealer.  $7 per but saves further delay.
