smirk Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Getting my old dinosaur 81 gsx1100 back together. It's got a dyna s fitted & I wanted to static check it's timing. There is only one set of timing marks on the advancer. 2&3 don't have a mark. Is there a trick I need to know? Or do I have to fit a timing wheel to set it 180 degree fron the 1&4 marks? Oh and the mk1 1200 bandit carbs I bought for it are pretty much beyond repair! I can't see the classifieds yet - so anyone got something for sale? Ta muchness. Quote Link to comment

If there's no mark on the advancer then degree wheel is the way ...there not normally a zillion miles out though or try and find an advancer with both marks when you hit 50 posts or on the bay of thieves 1 Quote Link to comment
smirk Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 Though the wheel was the only way.. then mark Rotor at 180 from the proper marks. I don't have one- but a bit of Google shows free printable ones for a standard cd. Think I'm doing that at work 2moro Quote Link to comment
smirk Posted April 16 Author Share Posted April 16 I made a thing! Lunch time - google - office printer - old cd from pile of old cds = free timing wheel 5 Quote Link to comment

smirk Posted yesterday at 07:38 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 07:38 AM My super bodged timing wheel confirmed they are all good. I now have a new timing mark engraved for future use. Quote Link to comment
