Are the spark plugs wet with fuel? No? Then you have a fuel problem.

But if it was, if everything else was good, but the timing was way off, it probably wouldn't start, but it would make itself known. It would backfire through the carbs, afterfire through the exhaust, kickback while trying to start it, or some combination of the three.
How were you adjusting valve timing?

I respectfully suggest you double check the ignition to verify what type you have. The 1981 and 1982 KZ305 models came with points, so if yours is electronic a previous owner installed it. If that is the case, you may want to try to see if it is aftermarket or possibly a unit from a 1987 or 1988 KZ305 (or other model KZ) as this info could come in handy for future reference. Ed
