David,
Try a brand new battery before you do anything else. Last year I had
starboard side spark when I checked the plug outside the bike but when I
dropped it back in it would not fire after awhile. I tried lots of things.
The last thing I did was buy a brand new battery as I finally found out that
the year old battery I had in the bike had a dead cell. I would definitely
find out the condition of your battery before all else. Bob Hawkes

| post. I have no firing at either cylinder, I have checked/set the valve clearances, and on my cold compression test, I am only getting about 85 to 90 psi with the throttle wide open. I assume this is low, but if I have |
| timing off dramatically, could this cause the valves to be open a bit on compression stroke? I did speak with a guy on the phone that told me that |
| is common to have the timing marks misaligned on the pulley of the loopframes, something about them being able to be on but on backwards??? I have also done the mechanical carb sync that Gary referenced in an earlier posting. Again, spark is there, fuel is there, but no bang!
