This tool is used to hold the bucket down on classic Kawasaki Z1 based engines whilst the shims are changed. Using a spanner or socket on the end of the crankshaft, you turn the crank until the lobe of cam, for the valve you are working on, compresses the spring pushing the bucket down. You then insert the tool so that the little spiggott just holds the edge of the bucket, being secured by the supplied 6mm cap screw inserted in one of the threaded holes used to hold down the cam cover ordinarily. Once the tool is in place, the cam can be backed off by turning the crank the other way. Now the shim can easily be removed. The easiest method is the use a pair of forceps and a slim magnetic pick up tool. Whilst this tool does work the genuine Kawasaki tool is a better bet, but you do pay for the superior tool.

Let customers speak for us
Really helpful and great customer service
Top quality will buy from here for all my future projects thank you
Good quick service with good quality product.
Great kit,
Good selection of sizes.
Good quality
Nice made, strong and good in the hand. Perfect JIS screwdriver set.
Good compact unit ideal under seat
Useful In-line fuses for adding a bit of safety as my bike only has 1 fuse for everything, good price.
Have a similar set from Stanley but this has a slightly bigger section of tools. This means I'll be picking this one up more than the other.
Great value for money, wouldn't buy this from laser direct as far too expensive.
I really like this set,brilliant piece of kit,small enough to carry on bike.Yet another great bikers tool from a trusted source.
