ignition timing

[Gary Lich]

My bike is pinging too much...Can anyone offer specifics on checking/adjusting the ignition timing on a 82 1100GK. I have an after market manual that covers alot of different eight valve 850, 1000 and 1100 models but dosn't cover ignition timing check and adjustment on a model with no points.

i thought that the later 1100 engines had fixed timing--or is the G model diferent

maybe they are fixed :?: (it might explain why I don't see any obvious way of adjusting it)

On my 831100e the plate is bolted in place--i am thinking of elongating the holes to pick up a few degrees of advance--some day i will get another backing plate and experiment with it.
