I have a question.

On my 650, the proceedure is to roll the engine past the T mark on the 2-3 cylinder, to a point about 20 degrees past it, to where there is a place on the advancer that is designated at the chain adjustment point. Where did your information come from?

Maybe there is a difference I need to know about.

Don't know about the KZ650 procedure.

Above applies to Z1, Kz900/1000.

Liked your idea of listening while coasting with engine off.
