Got the valve check the other day hoping that i had a tight exhaust valve and potentially adding to my issues, but alas, at 100,000km the valves are still in check with the stock shims. Just goes to show the durability of these engines.

exhaust
1: 0.28 & 0.28 2: 0.27 & 0.29 3: 0.27 & 0.25 4: 0.29 & 0.29

Intake
1: 0.17 & 0.18 2: 0.18 & 0.17 3: 0.18 & 0.18 4: 0.18 & 0.19

I am still running the Q3+. I think they are a great tire and well suited to the FZ6. They are sure footed in rain as well. So far wear has been excellent. I think they should be good 4,000-5,000 miles. I've been running them at 32/42 psi.

I mounted a new set of Q3+s on 8/23. The previous set ran for 9,020 miles. For the record, after removing them I determined that they were 500-1000 miles overdue for a change. They were thinner than I thought they were . And there is only 1 thing better than a new set of tires.... a new set of GREAT tires. And the Q3+ is a great tire....
