On my bike the tolerance for error is exceptionally low. The magnet and sensor must be withing .5mm or it just simply doesn't work.

Or make a bracket that mounts to the suspension that can be adjusted to go right up against a rotor, wheel, drum, etc. Kim 68 2000 CSP NOWROC; /html/datsun-roadsters/2000-06/msg00588.html (8,039 bytes)

I just need to figure out how to mount the sensor...

Set the circumference to an approximate value then take the car out on a measured course (around here we have sect; /html/datsun-roadsters/2000-06/msg00617.html (10,973 bytes)
