About to do that, should the lines on the flywheel & stator line up there or at TDC?

Took the head off & checked to see where the lines met up, close enough to 3.5mm btdc-maybe slightly closer to the first line than the centre. Refitted head & checked for good strong spark, doesn't seem to matter which way I connect the cdi unit to the coil
Still no joy, the occasional kickback & the kickstart looks to be developing a bend
Looks like it's back to points for the last mr vmx round & taupo  :(
Hope the lapped in taper holds up

No idea, don't have a timing light & have been at work all day, at least I managed to make a decent mount for my dti while I was there

Use a dti with the head off, I set the phasing(x mark) at 3.5mm then used the thin paper trick to get the points to open at the same point
The bike isn't a first kick bike when it's cold but thats just because I haven't sorted the pilot jetting out properly yet, think I need to throw a #50 at it. When warm it starts easily
