As a previous GL1800 and Valk, I'm familiar with the F6 engine, but have some questions about the Rune since it's different in some aspects:
1. What's the valve adjustment interval? Are they shims under buckets like the Wing, or threaded adjusters like the Valk?
2. Chain or belt cam drive? If the latter, what's the replacement interval?
3. Do TBs (throttle bodies) have to be synchronized? How often? It wasn't necessary on the wing because it only had 2 (one per side) and were solidly connected, but the Rune supposedly has 6 individual ones.
4. Does it have spark-plug wires, or the modern coil-on-plug?
5. Finally, couldn't find ANY performance numbers on this bike. Does anybody know crank HP and Torque? How does it compare to the Wing in acceleration, roll-ons, and top speed? Relative terms would suffice (a little quicker here, a little slower there, etc). My wing only managed 120 mph (indicated) top speed at my 4K' of altitude, with the windshield in LOW, tucked in, and only my 157-lb frame in tow (just for reference). Both bikes weigh an identical 900 lbs FULLY fueled (yikes!).
Feel free to answer just one question, or as many as you know. All this should be in the service manual. Thanks in advance gang.
