<><><><><><><><> <><><><><><><><> Skypilot, Valve clearances will get tighter as the valve train wears. So going for the maximum spec gives the longest interval between adjustments.

If the engine spec has a minimum and a > maximum > why would you go for anything but the exact middle?

[dsn_klr650] valves check max or min clearence ?
Still doesnt make sense. As things wear out they get looser. The valve
gap should get looser as things wear out or break in. What would make
them get tighter?
One other thing is still eating at my mind too. Performance is
calculated in the middle of all spec clearances. That means the best
performance occurs when all things are in the middle. The KLR is easy to
work on. That is why we all like it. Why not just keep it in the middle.
Valve clearances don't change that fast on a single that it would be
hard to keep near the middle
