Need clarification on GS450 timing TDC piston location

[Guest]

Hmm, so if your rotor timing marks are really intended to align to the sig gen modules (per GS500 procedure) with RH piston at TDC and cams properly indexed, you should be okay, no? Could be your Clymer manual is in error, would be worth your while to acquire the Suzuki manual to confirm the correct procedure.

Here's a shot of my Clymer timing procedure for reference, particularly figure 22...you can see the start point is alignment of the RH T mark with the index mark in the casting... curious to know exactly what your manual says.

I have the same manual, albeit downloaded from BikeCliff's website. For the GS450 they reference fig 24, which is difficult to read.

I'm all set at this point based on the info from the gstwins forum I posted earlier.

Thanks again.
