I´m really sorry for digging this post from the past, but I have been searching the forum and this is the only post that "covers" what I´m seeking (at least after 29 pages of searching!)

I know that I might beasking a lot, but could you please share the info on how to time the EX500 engine? I hae not had the chance (nor the financial availability) to get a manual, and after surfing for about 3 days, nothing has shown up....

I would really appreciate if you can give me a hand here!

Thanks!


Frank,

Bro you will need instruction from the service manual or a real good mechanic.

here are two pics of when I did my R1 and it was a bitch!
First is the # 1piston in theTDR position, this is a must. Name:  IMG_0278.jpg

This is what the cam looks like when it is in time, see the arrow and the dot.

Good luck, someone here probably has a manual and help you with the instructions.
