  The points will be open when you go past the F mark and line up the timing mark on the engine case with the peg the spring is hooked on. This is just past the F mark. If you have a dwell meter, this will show you how long the points are open to spec. I think I have mine set at .014". Also, make sure you have good spark and don't use anything but NGK plugs in these bikes. Check your cam chain adjustment to the book, it needs to be on the right stroke to set. You should not be clear to one side on the advance plate. You may have carb problems that whatever you do to the timing won't make it run right. Run some Seafoam in the gas and check carb sync too.
