Many bikes, especially classic two strokes like Kawasaki H1, H2, S1, S2, S3, KHs etc had inaccurate ignition marks from the factory, some so bad that if you timed the bike from them you would be holing pistons! Many factory workshop manuals admit this. Many set the timing mark as a piston height before TDC (Top Dead Centre). This means that you screw the applicable adapters into the spark plug hole to hold the dial gauge in the correct place and turn the engine over until the piston is shown by the dial gauge indicates the piston to be at the top of the stroke or TDC. You can then turn the engine backwards until the dial indicates that you have dropped the correct amount eg Kawasaki S2 fires with the piston at 2.4mm before TDC (BTDC) and you can then re-mark the flywheel or back plate correctly. This kit contains a dial gauge, extensions for the dial gauge plunger, adapter for the dial gauge and an extension for this adapter and adapters to fit 10mm, 12mm and 14mm plug holes. This is a professional set but, as can be seen from the photo, the plating on some of the adapters leaves a bit to be desired. Whist we don't like the quality of finish it is a perfectly useable product at a very good price.

Let customers speak for us
Used the harness tape for grouping wires together in head light and at end of pvc sleeving runs .
Apart from naming me wrong, the fuses were delivered quickly and helped me get the bike back on the road with spares in case of more emergencies. Thank tou
Great lamp. Well worth the money. So good I’ve ordered another one.
The tool works perfectly and is a good alternative to the original. It's a shame that the UK is no longer in the EU. Customs duties make it expensive, but I couldn't find anything cheaper on the European mainland.
Bought one of these when I started as an apprentice toolmaker in 1968, After several new heads both hyde and copper, I thought it was time to replace it.
Brilliant tool, well made, heavily used and never let me down. WShy would I not replace with exactly the same model.
Quality instrument well made with good case. Excellent value for money
Good quality handy size packs quick postage
Excellent service again from Bikers Toolbox, cannot recommend highly enough.
As soon as I held the vernier calipers in my hand, I could understand the quality.
Absolutely brilliant just plugged it in and it worked perfthanks
