Good stuff Duke! Can you post an easy one like changing the oil/filter?

Hello everyone, i'm new on the forum and have found great info thus far. Great forum!

I have an 07 Recon ES that i'm trying to adjust the valves. When pulling on starter recoil slowly to align TDC mark on tick, it suddenly takes a big jump. I cannot get it to stop on Tmark. Has anyone have suggestions as to how to align them?

Thanks in advance.

It's probably due to both valves being closed and the compression is pushing the piston back down the cylinder. Just remove the spark plug and try that.
