The part you are showing is keyed when it goes on the crankshaft - it cannot be 180 degrees out, you should see the T 1-4 mark point to the marker on the timing cover which is screwed to the engine when piston one / four are in the top position.
I suspect you haven't fitted the cover with the timing mark. Let me know if you have a problem understanding this, I can take a photo if required.
First Permanent ride the Z1R since Dec1977 (220,000km) as of June 2015
Second permanent bike 1989 FJ1200 dyno'd 140RWH, great bike.
Third ride is now the Frankenstein 1981 GPZ1100B1, 1983 fully recon motor fitted LOVE THIS BIKE
Forth my work bike FJ1200 1989 (same type as FJ above)

That's correct.
When the pointed end of the rotor passes by the left-hand (9 o'clock) pickup module, a signal is sent to the ignition coil that fires outside cylinders 1 and 4.
When the pointed end of the rotor passes by the right-hand (3 o'clock) pickup module, a signal is sent to the ignition coil that fires inside cylinders 2 and 3.
Good Fortune!
