Just got new points and condensers for my bike, 79 KZ 650. The SR 650, I think a D1? Anyway, I just moved and can't find the manual... I want to put em on, which doesnt look hard, but I'm clueless when it comes to the timing and setting the gaps. If anyone can help it'd be muuuch appreciated.
Thanks,
Ed

When in doubt, a maximum gap of about .014" to .016" is usually in the ballpark. Set them at the highest point of revolution for the cam.
