Its good practice to do them both at TDC, take the plugs out to see when the vertical piston is approaching TDC also makes turning the engine a lot easier

Turn the engine with the back wheel with the bike in gear on a paddock stand,
TDC Timing marks can be seen on the flywheel through the window in the alternator cover
