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
fantastic, much better than all the others I have tried.
A good quality bit of kit delivered quickly. Just what I needed.
I was struggling to get the brake Piston out of the housing. Bearing in mind it was 21 years old and sized solid, I thought it wasn't going to move let alone come out. his tool after trying all of my normal tools which which failed, I ordered these. It was still a struggle, but I got there in the end. An impossible task without them
Always good to deal with bikers toolbox. I modified this fuse holder to upgrade to blade fuses on my 1977 honda 4.
Well made with a chrome finish, excellent additional leverage when necessary, allows access to deepset screws or adjustments.
Great bit of kit. Light, magnetic and very powerful light
Strong, sharp- very handy. Brought them for wires, but they’re perfect for fuel & breather pipe too. Definitely worth having in the toolbox
