    Help adjusting electronic ignition

    I need instructions on setting timing on a GS100LN. The previous owner installed an elecronic ignition and my manual does not cover them. I am getting ready to do the 11000 mile service. Thanks in advance for any help with this matter.

    Is it a dyna S? If so I would think you can download from their website.

    If it's stock Suzuki, it' not adjustable as far as I know.

      If its aftermarket EI, you shouldn't have to adjust it. Ever. Dunno bout stock but im pretty sure you dont have to with it either.

        If it was set up right in the first place. If it's a replacement for an original mechanical, then by definition the pickup disc is adjustable, surely.

        Personally, I would go with the book instructions for adjusting the original manual (ie: rotating the timing pickup disc), and then refine it by riding and tweaking gently by trial and error. When you're happy with it, lock it and leave it.

        The Kid is right about the original factory setup. If that's what you've got, don't touch it.
