Yes, as I recall the white mark is the TDC (0* mark) and the Red mark (one with 2 others around it) is 16* BTDC (the other 2 are +/- 2*s) and those are used to set your ignition timing.

I know this is kinda old, but what is the timing supposed to be set at?

We're doing this on a 99 GSR but can't find the info. I only see 2 white dots. No red like I've read.

Thanks in advance.
