For the do-it-yourself maintenance group, this is a good one to have.
Restore of immovable ESTRELLA.
Final touches, Tappet adjustments.
Oil leak is gone but Engine noise is annoying.
However, I need to prepare Thickness Gauge for Tappet adjustment, so I bought this one.
[What happens if I don't make the Tappet adjustment?
Of course, if the tappet noise is too loud, it will bother you, but if you leave it as it is, the wider the gap, the stronger the impact of the blow, and the tappet clearance will widen more and more, which will cause the starting performance to deteriorate and the motorcycle to gradually go out of tune, so adjustments are necessary. 。
What is a mismatch in Tappet clearance?
When the Valve clearance (Tappet) gap becomes Large, a hammering sound begins to be heard. 。 Sound is emitted when Engine is cold, but disappears when warmed up. 。 In such a case, the gap is large, but as it warms up, the gold expands and the gap becomes small, and the sound disappears.
Symptoms
When I stopped at a traffic light, the car stalled while holding the clutch and dropping the GEAR.
In accordance with the Fat Engine Rotation "Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle." and strange noise.
Procedure 〜For ~ESTRELLA
(1) Unload the Tank from the vehicle body.
↓
(2) Cook must be Off 。 By turning it Off, you can lower the hose without wasting Gasoline dripping out (some Gasoline in the hose will come out immediately after the hose is removed).
↓
(3) ESTRELLA can be adjusted to the upper dead center by removing the Cover and turning this Screw. 。 Top dead center is simply the state where the Piston is at the top.
When adjusting the tappet, the position of the piston must be adjusted to the upper dead center. 。
↓
(4) Remove the Plug so that no compression is applied.
I have to move it with no Engine on it.
↓
5) Front Tappet Cover. 。 It can be adjusted by removing here.
↓
(6) Loosen the lock nut attached to the head first, and when the center screw can be turned, it is OK. 。
At this point, it is normal to move the Tappet by hand and hear a chica-chica sound. 。 If it does not sound kachica-chi, either the upper dead center is not correct or the adjustment is gapped considerably.
↓
(7) Insert the Thickness Gauge into the gap and align it. 。 Strictly speaking, this is the process of adjusting the gap between the Valve and the Arm that is pushing the Valve to the proper value.
↓
Clearance on the exhaust side is 0.17 to 0.22mm 。 If the Gauge is pinched by inserting 0.20mm of Thickness Gauge and closing the Screw at the Center, the Gauge will be pinched, and if the Gauge is moved in that state and it feels a little stuck, it is OK. 。
↓
Clearance on the intake side is 0.10 to 0.15mm 。 The intake side may be a little more difficult to do because it is more intricate in location.
↓
(10) To be sure, make one more rotation of the screw with the upper dead center aligned, and then align it again.
[After adjustment
When I drove it, it no longer stalled and blew up better!
I think a single cylinder can be done by an amateur.

A gem and a masterpiece
Replaced a set of 4 KOWA T-Type Wrench up to 8,10,12,14 after several years.
Although I have been working with KTC and Kohken, I can say again that KOWA is the best fit for TWrench.
According to Large's senior maintenance staff, in the past, whenever the Japan GP was held at Suzuka, overseas mechanics used to come to Large's tool shop to buy only KOWA's TWrench, which makes sense.
There are a few important areas in TWrench, but the welds are weld treated or there is no spatter on the weld bead at all as shown in the photo.
This smoothness leads to a sense of security while working, because it is the soft area between fingers that touches here.
The surface treatment is pear-shaped, and when wiped with wet tissue, the finish is such that the fibers are uprooted.
Everyone may have their own preference for the center of gravity balance, but in my opinion, this position is one answer to the question.
Although there are now products that exceed the thinness of the Socket, they seem to have settled on a balance of sufficient strength and thinness without pursuing excessive thinness that is not necessary.
In fact, I have never encountered a situation where I would want to use TWrench that would not be Accessible with this thinness.
The slimness that fits comfortably in your hand, the length of the handle, the length of the arm, the thinness of the Socket, and the center of gravity are all excellent, and I will probably keep buying the same one even if this one breaks in the future.

Easy to use!
I have not used Rim protector or used a piece of hose until now,
I bought and used it because I thought it would be necessary to replace the tire on the carbon wheel.
It is thinner than I expected, but it is rigid and fits well on the Rim, making it easy to use.
By the way, we sell them as OEM Parts at Wa***a.
I also tried Rim protector, but it was the same thing, just without the string attached.
It was also understandable that they were sold as OEM Parts.

I purchased this to remove the Rotor on my GB250Engine. Since it is an OEM product, I was able to remove the Rotor without any problems.
It would be great if we could get it for a little less.

A must for Valve clearance
I purchased this for Valve clearance adjustment.
The part requiring Thickness Gauge is essential because it is not possible to measure it with other measuring tools such as Caliperetc.
Kowa Seiki is a company that I had not heard much about, but it is a very long-established tool manufacturer established in 1952, and it seems to be a company that manufactures not hand tools that we ordinary users use, but special tools and equipment that motorcycle and automobile factories install as equipment. It seems to be a company that manufactures not hand tools for us ordinary users, but special tools and equipment that are installed as equipment in motorcycle and automobile factories.
Unlike Dial gauge and Micro meter, Thickness Gauge does not deviate so much.
However, if rusting occurs, the thickness can easily change with rust, so only that point should be noted.
Since it is not a tool that is used so routinely, it is better to store it in Vinyl after use with a rust inhibitor, or if not available, a lubricant smeared all over it.
It has been about 10 years since I purchased it and it still remains rust-free.

Torque wrench at last!
[How is it used?
I have been tightening the brake disc, caliper, and other important parts by hand for a long time, but I finally purchased a new one.
Was the one you received as per Image?
Yes
How was your experience with it?
You will want to Torque wrench everywhere.
[Points to note]
When storing, store at a lower level than the low value estimate.
Spring, etc., so that Torque settings do not go haywire.
How did it compare to other products?
Compared to KTC and others, the same.
It costs a few thousand dollars and is rarely active, but it is fun to work with. It's safe and you can learn the Torque sensation.
