Post by: Snowy 76 on February 06, 2010, 10:41:22 am

You should be able to get a good dial indicator from a reputable tool place (I don't mean a footy club). I bought an addaptor with mine that screws into the plug hole to hold it however it wont all fit on when the motor's in the frame. I just use the indicator without the addaptor in that case and it works fine.  ;)

I've machined a fair few up, if you have a lathe I'll send you some dimensions. A 38mm indicator works much better rather than the 50mm face, you also need some extentions for the plunger.

I bought mine from www.biketool.com.au It,s fairly small so you can get it into the motor while it still in the frame. Darcy

Always thought when asking about yamaha parts the answer was come round the back of the counter, drop your pants & bend over little boy :o

Just bring it around to me, I will time it for you Snowy.  Of course I couldn't be held responsible if it was a tad out as I haven't forgotten you took me out last time I saw you (ha ha)!!!!!
