Timing?

Could the timing be so far off that some of the exhaust is actually coming out of the intake? If the timing was that far off, would it even run?
If it were me, I would stop guessing about the timing and take the valve cover off, set it at TDC and see where the cams are at. If the timing is off and you are messing with the carbs, then the carbs will be off when the timing is fixed.

One thing I noticed today. When the bike is running and I hit the throttle, I see air/smoke come out of the carbs.

I've got an extra MSD in the garage so, let me know if you want me to bring it to DS Days to try a swap-out.
We could try a carb swap out too.

i'm really getting pissed now cause something is draining my batterry.
The other day I leaned out the carb a little and it seemed to backfire less often and start a little easier.
Today I leaned it out a little more and it backfires worse than when I first put it back together.
i'm so upset, I'm eating a bag of Cheetos and I don't even eat that crap![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
