Hi,
I'm in the process of recommisioning my 1950 Comet hopefully in time for 1000 Bikes, and I'm at the stage where I need to set the ignition timing.
I'd prefer to do ithis using a degree disc as that's what I'm used to, but there doesn't seem a way of mounting it to the crankshaft except to make some kind of adaptor that screws into the primary drive shock absorber (large femail thread in centre).
I just wondered if there was an accepted method, and if an adaptor is required could anyone tell me what the size of the thread I need to make it screw into - I have limited measuring and manufacturing equipment and my brain works in metric...
Many thanks in advance,
Mike
