If you have a real hard time using a timing light to time your bike go to this web site and get there timing bracket. I have been using them for almost 20 years and I just take it for granite every one has one. All my V Twins have one http://www.techcycle.com/techaccessories.html

Good luck

 

That thing works perfect. You make some marks on your stator and Bingo, timed perfect every time.
