Tossed a timing light on my 1978 CB750K's wires after noticing that pipes 1 and 2 were cool and 3 and 4 were finger burning hot. Light did not illuminate on the two cylinders on the right side of the bike (as seated on it). I did ride the bike since getting it and noted occasional miss fires when cold but they clear up as the engine gets hot. The bike will easily do 35mph but may be down on power. This is my 1st bike so I have no idea how it should "feel". I feel like there is a bit of knock at idle but I do not know what it should sound like.
Bike has the stock airbox on it. Manifold boots are hard and will get replaced eventually. I have not taken the cover off the points yet to inspect but will tomorrow. What else should I test and where?
Any tips on troubleshooting this?
