Re: Black Knight..Upgrade ?
Thats the best thing you can do with a Scotchlock.
The instructions for mine said to static time at full advance.
I just did it normally, then I was able to twist and hold it at full advance to check.
Spot on. Just gotta tweak it in now with the strobe.

Re: Black Knight..Nothing left but the ride.
Re: Black Knight..First nice ride ALMOST successful
Rach and I had our first sunny ride of the season.
It was almost a success. The circlip popped off and my shifter was left dangling by the rearset linkage out on the breeze.
Got home, drilled a hole through the shaft and fixed that.

Re: Black Knight..Brake upgrade.
Attempting to replicate Irks brake upgrade.
Using factory Honda disc hub w a Kawasaki disc...
the new disc is larger diameter + lighter. I will weigh parts before installing.
Drilled, tapped and countersunk hub for the shouldered Kawasaki bolts.
Fitted w aluminum crush washers as the bolt heads didn't quite fit the disc as planned.
Jammed w flanged locknuts. Will knock off excess threads before paint.
Picked up a second set of forks, along w everything for rebuild...I will swap these for minimal down time.

Looks great. What Suzuki rotor is that? I used an EX500 rotor.
EX500 is Kawasaki. It's a Ninja.trek97 said:
