Shim shiminy, shim shiminy, shim shim sheroo
If you own a four stroke, then you have a clue.
We have to shim valves, yes this is true.

Pull the seat, pull the tank, igniter too.
Pull the valve cover with the allens, get oily goo.
My garage is so crowded, it looks like a zoo.

Pull the cams, the chain tensioner, this makes me blue.
Find the micrometer, the feeler gauges, listen to The Who.
This bucket is worn, oh what shall I do.

My mic reads in inches, my calculator I view.
This new shim is out of spec, by point zero two.
Dropped the shim, by the chain, pull magneto cover too.

Oil has dripped on my new left shoe.
The feelers are working, the clearances are true.
The bike is on the trailer, a shower I need, Pee-*.

In bed late, try to snuggle with honey-boo.
She looks over and says “forget it, no nookie for you.”
My two stroke was easier, had more punch too.

I like my thumper sorta, but more maintenance too boot.



:D
