Any recommendations in the Washington d.c./ northern Virginia area to get some engine work done on my 2005 cbr 600rr? Just want to freshen up our 17,000 mile back up engine and do some cyl head improvements.Thanks for any help folks!

What's the gain your going to get from a manual timing chain adjuster?

No gains. Adjustability only. My spare engine has 17,000 hard miles on it and the factory hydraulic timing chain tensioner is worn out.

Yeah, they start to get a little "ticky" when they get a lot of miles. Maybe the new bearings would give it enough extra oil pressure to take the noise away but I am going to put manual adjusters in both engines anyway.
