Cody's right - It will help to indicate TDC, and it's a useful trick. Since there are 2 360-degree cycles, as Allen points out, there will be a 50-50 chance of hitting the compression cycle TDC in that manner.
Checking the valve situation at that time will verify. One YouTube I watched suggested rocking the crankshaft back and forth a little. If both valves move fast, it's the wrong cycle, because that's when one valve opens and the other closes at the same time, showing lots of movement. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
