This was so thoroughly done and signifcantly important. Very well filmed, described, appreciate the slow mo so we could see the timing marks. Everyone always thinks they know how to do this but your description was great because it had the basics, the mid level wrench and the advanced tuner in mind. Excellent!! Phil you the man
Back in the '90s I put a Rev-Tech dual fire ignition in an EVO. This is dual points to make single-fire ignition with a points-type system. Basically, do what you did on this video, do it again for the rear cylinder. It ran great, but replacement points/condensers became unobtanium, so I was forced back to electronic single-fire systems.

Replacing the stator. Adjusting the pushrods. Adjusting S&S super e Rebuilding a 4 speed transmission Good video, watched a lowbrow one on timing a couple years ago and was left scratching my head
thanks for that video, dude! it’s really useful, but what to do if I have an ironhead? can I do exactly the same steps on it? because I need to take off the clutch cover 🤔 thank you! greetings from Russia!
Yes its a little more difficult with a sportster. You'll have to use the clear bung in the case. But yes, process is exactly the same just work out what timing marks your flywheels have.

Thank you mate! Comments like this make it worth while spending the extra time filming editing and posting. Thanks
Legend! … I’d like to see one on an oil pump diagnosis/replace
The next one I get through the doors ill be sure to document it!
Thanks for this one mate...I needed this video....
Glad it helped! Can seem super complicated but it’s really not

Yes Cb750's have from factory twin points sets that are individually adjustable.

Glad to hear it was well explained. Next video coming out is a 4 speed Tranny rebuild!
Nice work my friend.

Thank you for the support all the way over there!
