Default A few Timing Belt pics from my in-progress writeup due to recent TDC questions on AW.........

These were taken during TB replacement on my 2002 225 TTR last April. Full writeup is pending forum migration to (bump) vB.

Looks excellent. Well done. Wish I had thought of the clamp thing.

This is great! I guess I did miss the pictures before. I hope I can find that pointer on my rusted flywheel. I did count 68 teeth also. I believe the camshaft was moved by my volunteer helper while the belt was off, so I will need to rotate it with the belt off to reset TDC for it when I also align the flywheel. I found a trick to release the tensioner by placing the pointed end of a old style lug wrench into the brass split end of the tension pully and applying constant pressure downward. I had much trouble trying to turn the head of a (substituted) M5 50 bolt due to the tight space. I found this bolt at my small town old style hardware store.
