    With a degree wheel you can get it perfect

      Static time it with a degree wheel or use the timing marks behind the ignition.
      This is only if you are getting spark.

        i have good spark, tried my friends running bikes ignitor and still not running. sounds like it wants too, but think I need new carbs. put gas down the screw and it kicks over. the twin carbs on my 85 550 have always given me fits. even after soakin and new orings. I might need to send them off somewhere, I must be doin something wrong with them.

        thanx for all the help you all have giving me and the patients as well.
