[QUOTE="Tony Wilkinson, post: 110847, member: 4387"] When I fitted mine, I removed the primary cover then used a rod to find TDC, marked the (inner) part of the rotor. Then attached a thin wire with a screw on the case and lined up with my first mark then marked the rod to find the BTDC and marked the rotor again. Line this mark up with the wire and you can fit the rotor. I checked my settings a few times before I was happy to fit the new rotor. I then fired up the bike and set with a strobe light making sure the marks lined up on full advance. It is a bit of a faf but works ok. You can do the same thing using a timing disc but this method works ok. [/QUOTE]
