I have heard a lot of different answers to what the valves should be adjusted to. I don't know which to choose. The Honda manual says 0.05mm(0.002inch). I have heard up to 0.13mm(0.005inch). I have no idea which to choose. What do you guys run your bikes at?

Stock motors with stock cams .002 to .003". Race cams with high lift and duration = more clearance. The cam makers usually give a spec on what to run.
