I bought mine in Machine Mart - http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/cht461-ohc-valve-spring-compressor

but I wish I had bough the dearer one -

Whilst I managed with the cheaper one it would have been much easier with the better one.

I have a feeling that a Kawasaki one would carry a big premium. :( [/url]
