2003LimitedBanshee Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 (edited) Okay I just installed my Ricky Stator adj. timing plate. I've gone up one size on my mains, also fuel is already cut with 20% Trick race fuel (not needed, but trying to use up the rest of a 55 gal drum). I'm setting it up with 4 degrees advance, and I just want to make sure there are no more must do's before I take it out and run it through. I've heard from a couple people who warned me about "melting it down" after they installed a timing plate. But wasn't able to determine if they rejetted, etc. Everyone think all is well, go rip?

FIRST BANSHEE Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 I diden't rejet mine, had no problems. your not adding air so you shouldn't need any more fuel. I ran between 4 and 7 degrees, Ilike 5 the best, still starts easy. at 7 it started a little harder. Quote
hittintrees srh Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 I didnt have to make any adjustments at all when i went to +4. Other than I had to hold on a little tighter. Quote
JA66 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 I had my bike on the dyno this weekend, we ran it once on stock timing, and he said that it was a little lean but it would be fine, then we advanced the timing 4 degrees and tried it again and he said it was leaner and needed to go up one size on the main, I don't really understand but thats what he said.... It did make about a 2 horsepower increase when we advanced the timing though. Quote

I was wondering what kind of difference I was making by advancing the timing, with my current mods. I went up to 340's and the plug color seems spot on. It was a slightly darker chocolate milk color, but now has a nice light chocolate milk color! I think I can feel a noticeable difference and throttle response seems significantly better. Thanks Quote
