4 magnets here too

You sure you don't have newer than K3 clocks?

He says it is reading fast, opposite problem.

Depending what sensor you have, try space it out from the disc a way. Maybe it is picking up the rivets as well as magnets.

The K5 on clocks need 8 magnets, the K3/4 need 4. The only thing I can think of at the mo, is that it is reading the other rivets. Not sure how to space it out any further though, as it's mounted on a bracket that is sandwiched between the mudguard and the fork stanchion.

What magnets you using?

DarrenSV650S · 08-03-10, 07:55 PM

You get sensors that are like a big bolt. So you can unscrew them to get them at the perfect distance.
I would try putting some cardboard or something over the other rotors just now

Not sure what magnets as someone off here sent me some from America. I think they are neodinum (sp?). They are glued into some holders that are bolted through the rotor rivet. Thee is only a couple of mm between the sensor and the magnets. It's a 1GT101DC sensor so doesn't screw out. It also cost £20 so I wanna use it if I can!

Just having a re-read of my old thread and realised I never updated with the solution.

After a little bit of fiddling I found it was the spacing so after bending the sensor away from the magnets a touch, it now reads perfectly.

final pictures?

This was taken a while ago but is basically what it looks like now. The old difference is that now it is a little dusty and is wrapped up in an Oxford Stormex in my garage as I haven't had time to ride it this year!

Just a couple of quick questions if you or somebody knows the answer.

I've got the following front end to fit to mine.

GSXR 750 SRAD yokes
GSXR 750 SRAD front wheel
GSXR 1000 front forks k1/k2
GSXR 750 front axle
GSXR 750 tokico 4 pot front brake callipers
GSXR front mudguard
TL1000 Clip Ons rather than riser and bars.

My first question is can I use the brake resovoir of my K4 as I'm not sure the brake lever/resovoir on the above set up will fit with clip ons? If i can great though. If not which to use?

Secondly I'm told this should go on fairly easily, the only worry is will I be able to use the top bearing again off my K4?

The yoke above has the ignition unit in the centre which I believe is fine it just means that the lock will only work with the wheel straight forward rather than off to the left. Is there a top yoke I could swap this with with the ignition set off to the right like my K4?

Any recommendations for somebody to powder coat both my wheels black?

Cheers and sorry to slightly de-rail the thread.
