Hi, New shims etc ? What's the total mileage on the bike? (Maybe over 25k?)

YZF750R oil consumption
Oil consumption is definitely high. Mine sometimes needs a blip on the throttle to get neutral - I think that's quite normal. Haven't noticed much difference with oils, just use what's recommended by local Yam dealer.

600r brake bleeding
Just wondered if you had succeeded yet? I've the same prob (YZF750 too), tried pulling lever half way, tried with brakes off the bike on a bench, calliper sideways, calliper bleed valve upwards, tapping them, pistons pushed and held in with packing, lever tied up for days, new master cylinder seal, just about everything I can think of that's worked on other problem bikes. Have braided hoses so not sure if I can clamp. Any other advice please?

exup valve, yzf750
Found it! The other ( wider) ceramic bush was in the tailpipe - shook it around and got it out.

exup valve, yzf750
Taken mine out for cleaning/ lubing but now I can't get rid of a rattle that wasn't there before I "fixed" it. I have the ceramic? bush (about 4mm width) on the far end of the valve itself, but I'm not sure if there should be another item. The workshop manual shows two bushes (not clearly), should one of them stay put inside the exhaust? Sorry for all the ? marks, but any links /photos would help. Thanks.
