Timing my cams?

[hambly #77]

How do you set the timing on the stock cams. Im used to my LTR where they have dots that you line up. Im sure its something im just not seeing. Any help would be much appreciated.

if you still need it. first remove 10mm headed bolt located just in front of oil filter cap (on center cases). remove valve cover. put bike in 5th gear, remove one sparkplug. rotate rear wheels to turn engine over, when cams face away(intake lobes towards back) (exhaust towards front). stop. lines on cams gears should line up in middle. remove 2 bolts holding top chain guide. notice that both lines line up with casting line on head. stick screw driver in hole of case ( the one in front of oil cap). that will lock crank. reverse on install. any other questions just ask.

hey. I'm trying to get my quad to start and I noticed that my cams dosn't align. there are two sets of markings on my cams IN- and EX- on bought wheels. can i still just put the engine in comp and lock it. where do i find this hole is it behind the oil filter? sorry fore the terible english, but I'm from Norway:P

under the oil filter you'l find a bolt that has a copper ring under it, thats the bolt you schould have. its a M8 bolt.

i made a m8 bolt thats longer than the stock and grinded the head of the screw a litle bit so it fits nice into the cranckshaft. it might by easyer to work than with a screwdriver in it.

I tried this, but when i try to cykle the engine the piston is hitting the valve on the EX cam, is there any way i can find the tdc on the controlweel without opening the rest of the engine?
