Just for clarity, the marks look something like this on my TT600R flywheel (I guess the XT is different):-
H l
They are quite close together.
According to the manual, the one on the left is to be used for a strobe light as I described before (and, in detail, it looks a bit like a T written sidewards, underlined with a vertical mark). That is the one I used a few days ago to set the camchain.
The one on the right is for the valve timing according to the adjustment section of my manual AND in there it calls this mark the "T" position; combined with the re-assembly of the engine bit of the manual that has the crankcover references, the manual is a bit ambiguous and can be read in different ways, which is pretty much what I have done up to now.
Anyone else with a TT600 can confirm that I should use the righthand mark of these two choices?
Thanks Auke,
Taking off the LHS cover is an option but it would be quicker and easier to set the timing to the new mark and see what difference that makes. I take your point about doing it in stages; ; last time I put the spark plug in "early" while it was easier, so I don't know what difference that made last time around.
Cheers,
Dave
