Hey guys.

I was wondering what's the valve setup on a 2000 ZX9 Kawasaki?

Is it a shim/over the valve spring bucket,
where a side slide follower pushes down on it from under the cam?
Or do the shims go under the valve bucket,
like the much older kawasakis where you had to remove the cams?

What's involved in setting the clearances for this model?

Any insights will be appreciated.

Yes.

Camshaft removal with the guidance of a shop manual.
