They should be .002-.004 like the other bikes. I'd set them at .004.

I seem to have an electronic copy of the manual for a 79 750 twin but every page - all 200 plus pages - is a separate pdf file.

Here's a pic from page 12 which deals with checking valves. Clearance is given at the bottom of the page in mm and I think the figures convert to what Steve suggested in inches.
