Valve Clearances?

[Bluehawk]

My ER5 is getting a bit "tappy" and is due a big service, I'm pretty handy with my tools and normally attempt prettymuch any tasks that need doing myself, But I am yet to try valve clearances, simply as i haven't needed to until now.

How difficult is it? And what is involved? More specifically on a Kawasaki ER500?

This is what I done

Wait until November, phoned Kawasaki, how much to do clearances

£75 at winter rates ok thank you very much there you go.

Only £75?!

I was expecting more like £750 from a main dealer, Worth a shot if it saves me a few hours.
