Timing plate question.

[blaster2006]

hey ive got a small question...a good friend of mine, told me, when you get an adjustable timing plate and advance the timing.. that it puts more "pressure" on the pistons and causes it to wear faster, its like adding a coolhead, when you do that it like adds compression thus it lets the pistons wear out quicker.

 

he told me because whe nyou advance the timing, it gives spark before the piston reaches the end of its stroke, so it forces it to go back down or something like that before it finishes its stroke ( or should i say before it gets to its highest point) and thus it puts more pressure on the cylinders.

 

i would like to know this, because i just want my bike to be reliable and long lasting, the reason why im not getting a coolhead with higher comp domes is also for that reason: i want the pistons to last longer, and its really hard to get bore /hone job here where i live so yeah. thats kinda why.

 

thanks.
