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
Great selection of parts, all received very quickly, needed some thin walls cable for running repairs replacing 50yr old brittle wires, good prices
Well no actually!
Nicely weighted Copper/Hide faced hammer. First use for me was to fit the new head race bearings to my Katana.
British made!
And always a chance to chat with Ralph!
Excellent tools, that you can give a whack to a screw to loosen corroded threads without ruining your kit! Great service too, well done Ralph!
Stud extractor worked perfectly. Smooth process from order to delivery. Ralph from Biker Toolbox went above and beyond in helping me. Top man.👍🏻
Great replacement for my old and battered old Vice Grips!
Competitively priced, arrived promptly.
Brilliant service, thanks
Top quality and excellent delivery
Very pleased with these connectors, they bailed me when I needed something to take the place of some proprietary connectors that I could not obtain anywhere.
This crimper does a very reasonable job for the price
