I've searched but couldn't really find anything that seems like my problem.... I've got a 07 dyna fxd 96ci and it will start right up when first take it out. But now when it gets hot and I try to start it up it has a grinding noise like the teeth aren't lining up. Now if I give it a little twist it helps it start. Only thing I know it has v&h big radius exhaust with baffles, v&h fuel pak and open better air breather. Also I've been trying to find out how to check timing on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏
thanks
My Dyna is the same year as yours and I had the same issue until I replaced the stock compensator with a baker unit and replaced the starter clutch with a higher quality one from evolution industries. As others have suggested make sure your battery has a full change.
Had the same issue with mine last year. Ended up being the battery. Tested fine but would damn near always clunk and kickback on hot re-start. Replaced the battery and cleaned all the connections including the ground and have not had a problem since. What surprised me the most was the battery I replaced in '20 was the original from '13 according to the sticker on it.
9.2:1 is the stated but it's probably closer to 9.1:1. Cranking compression of about 190
In stock form the ccp should be 165-170.. the only way to get it to 190 is earlier IVC or shave the heads to reduce combustion chamber size and then there's always a piston swap..

Not trying to step on toes here but I don't want to mislead the OP..
Based on your calculation of 9.07 static compression with the "STOCK" IVC of 34*
With those numbers punched in to the RB Racing advanced compression calculator or Dynamic cranking compression ratio based on an IVC of 34*
It still only comes up to 172 CCP...
