I started with cars so always end up checking the manual. I enjoy the job more on cars. Used to spend hours on the Renault 4. Ran like a sewing machine. Easy enough to keep the distributor a little loose and dial the ignition in by ear.

Meh, I'm not mad about four strokes in general. It's still a toss up whether I do them myself on anything with bucket and shim, particularly multis. I've done GSXRs a couple of times over the years and even just getting the rocker cover off/on is a fucking major ballache.
Fortunately that's the only bike I have with bucket and shim and I don't ride it enough to worry!

Whatever is says in the manual - usually cold for bikes, though I think hot is more of a thing with cars.
