Hey how's everyone doing? I know this has been covered already, but not exactly for my application. If anyone has any pictures of when they put a timing advance plate on I would greatly appreciate it! I forgot how my stock plate went on and I know it's crutial to set the new plate at stock timing and then go from there. Or if no one has any pictures of their timing plates, could someone just explain what it should look like all said and done. And Im really kind of hoping to get answers from people who have already done this and who's bikes are running. Thanks in advance!
 
So you should be looking into the stator housing there should be two empty holes top and bottom we'll call them and a few "stand-offs" that the stator plate spins inside of.

There should also be three "cutouts" in the case two should be plugged, the big one on the upper right (towards the back of the quad) and the little one on the bottom right (near the chain) with one "cutout" left empty on the upper left (front of quad pointed towards the exhaust kinda).

The stator plate should go with the wiring and little protection plate pointed forward so that the wiring can pass out of that hole.

If you align it correctly, the timing "marks" should be at the bottom of the front alignment "peg" at 0 degrees advance with the bolts in the middle of the slots.

I'm sure someone else has pictures but I don't.
