So far.. I have quickly "gauged" each valve to see what is out of specs. stated by Yamaha. Here is my results..

Note: All marked with (X) are clearly out of specs.

Cylinder 1 - .23 mm Intake (X)
- .20 mm Exhaust (X)

Cylinder 2 - .15 mm Intake
- .18 mm Exhaust (X)

Cylinder 3 - .10 mm Intake (X)
- .22 mm Exhaust

Cylinder 4 - .15 mm Intake
- .23 mm Exhaust

I haven't removed any shims yet but will be after I order/receive the tools necessary for the job.
