Ignition timing


Recommended Posts

Maybe someone can help me with this. While going through my checklist of maintenance items while putting my bike back together I decided to look up the ignition timing procedure. I went to the manual and started reading the procedure. To my surprise at the end of the procedure I find out that the timing is not adjustable. So my question is, is it necessary to check the timing at all? Would checking the timing be more of a trouble shooting procedure? I currently do not have a timing light and really don't want to buy one if the timing cannot be adjusted anyway. Thanks.

The only time I ever saw it mentioned is when doing a valve adjustment, but there is no way to adjust timing, so I would say no
