This is not a good timing to talk about it.

Question

Someone tries to say what I do not want to hear and what is not appropriate, which sentence is natural to you?

This is not a good time to talk about it. VS. This is not a good timing to talk about it.

I think the second is correct but I also have heard the first one used. What do you think? Thank you so much as always and have a good day.

Only #1 is correct and natural. We say good timing, not a good timing. Even without the article, #2 is unnatural.
