HELP ..

The crank shaft from my Z1000H seems to be missing a nipple locator thingy - sorry I don't really know what to call it. The photo below is of a different shaft ..but it clearly shows a nipple right at the bottom of the photo.

The question is ..Do I need the nipple and if so any ideas about where I can get one or even if its possible to graft one on :wink:

do you mean the roll pin that locates the timing advancer? it is still available from kawasaki part no 555A0408 PIN-SPRING,4X8 or you could try a good engineers merchants 4mm x 8mm roll pin
