    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Does this bike have points and if so, where do I find them and what are they supposed to be set at? Also, how do you check timing on a bike, same as a car? If so, wheres the timing marks? Thanks in advance and sorry for the bundle of questions
 
Electronic ignition.

Located behind the small right hand cover.

Nothing to set.
 
Thanks for the reply, so the timing cant be set? Its either working or it isnt? thanks again
 
Timing can be set, but once it's set, it shouldn't move.
At least not until the bike is wrecked on the right side and wipes everything out. :eek:

As brveagle mentioned, the ignition pickup coils and the timing marks live under the round cover on the right end of the crank. You can check the timing the same way you do a car, just clip your trigger wire to either #1 or #4 plug wire and watch the marks in the little window.

Do you not have a manual? Check BassCliff's site to get one.

Ahhh, I knew id seen a manual somewhere. I actually have Basscliffs website bookmarked too. Thanks for the reminder, been awhile since Ive had to do anything. Thank you both for helping
