Since you have the plugs out, stick your finger over the hole. When it wants to blow your finger off the hole, you'll know you're on the compression stroke. Then, go to your mark.

So when the bike idles the ticking is gone, but with any pull on the throttle the ticking comes back. I've watched a few cb360 test ride videos on youtube and the ticking can sometimes be heard, is that normal?
For the timing adjustment, you first check left side on the compression stroke at the LF mark then rotate 180° to the F mark, or would you first rotate a whole revolution and then go to the F mark?

However, when I take it out for a ride, anything past 1/2 throttle open has no power.
How would you do that? And what exactly does "full advance" mean?trek97 said:Did you check timing w a strobe to ensure you get full advance at 3000rpm?
Well I have inspected the advancer before when I replaced the seal behind it but it seemed in good condition and didn't seem stiff or worntrek97 said:If its in the advancer. Most likely old sticky grease or worn springs. If its the springs (stretched and loose fitting), sometimes you can cut a coil out and bend the next coil to fit. Or just disassemble clean and re-grease.
