Measured the new wheel base. A little longer than I thought.

I love watching your videos Steve, I watch them all, and I just wanted to say, thank you and keep up the great work that you do,
I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.

GoPro 3 sucks. I was talking about buying a sidewinder baffle so it would come straight out not up like the one I have. Got the tail end on my comments. The cam skips over a few clips so the video is choppy and hard to collate. Going to buy a different one. :angry:
I put washers behind the sprocket to move it over to align it with the countershaft sprocket. Looks good to me. Will report back tomorrow. B)

Steve KHI made a spacer between the crush drive and the sprocket when using an O-Ring chain. Might be more solid then a stack of washers.
