Need help. Bike is getting spark & fuel. Popping noise when it almost starts. I'm thinking check the timing, valves & rings. Am I on the right track? What kind of service manuals to you guys use?

Check valve clearance.

Either valve timing or points timing I reckon.
Valve clearance should be around 0.05 to 0.06 from memory.
Go on youtube ( Alexman ), he shows you how to do that, it is very easy.

When was the last time it ran?

Got it started, low on power & smokes a little. Probably ran about 2 years ago.
