Adjustable Timing Plate

[twinrock]

just got done putting my timing plate on set it at+4degrees and all i can say is wow. i just ran a few passes in the field behind my house its a little wet so it was spinning alot but wow with that and the decked head its alive.

yeah yamaha did make a bike with adjustable timing..the early rd350lc..not the pv modle...and guys actually retard their timing..not advance it..this is done when engine is tunned really high..its retarded to stop it reving too high and detonation giving more engine life...but im sure there would be more infor on these bikes about timming...and they r almiost identical to a banshee engine

On my 99, I modded my stock plate for a 4% timing advance. I thought it gave it great throttle response down low, but killed my top end power. I went back to 0 degrees advance, and might retard my timing for more top end power.

Is there a difference in the brands out there?

Pro Design, Rick Stator etc??? I know Pro Design makes a billet one for $70.

I'm being offered a Ricky Stator one $25 shipped & just want to know if I should go with a different one. Also what kind of top end power are you guys sacrificing from running +4? Thanks.

Spend the extra money and get a billet one. Ricky stator ones are junk! They strip out really easy and are just crappy quality. PM majicmike, he has nice ones like the one on my bike. They are good priced too. :thumbsup:

wait wait wait.....advancing it 4 degrees will make you lose some top end?

im insalling an timming plate on my shee today and set it to +4. is it safe to run 95octane gas. the mix i do is 40litres of 95octane pump gas and 1litre motorex full synthetic 2stroke oil

[87sheerips]

WOW, you have been digging. This thread is 5 years old! lol.... 32:1 mix ratio and as long as your cranking compression is 155psi or lower you should be fine with 95 octane gas. In my opinion.

[ClayAiken]

Holy shit this is some digging.

More likely your mom's birth canal.

i assume you are no in the US.

 

If it is 95 RON number, it will have a lower AKI number than the 93 pump gas we run in the states.

it would be close to a 90-91 AKI number.

 

and a 40:1 mix ratio isn't bad if the oil is good quality oil.

i run 40:1 with R50.

 

as for the +4, you should be safe depending on your other mods. what other mods do you have?

Good search, as I was about to start a topic on advance timing. I'm going to be running 100LL & I want to know how to determine the proper advance timing adjustment. I know it depends on compression, squish, pipes & etc. just say if my compression was around 165 psi & squish was .052, using SB IF Shearers. How much timing could i add using 100LL? What do I look, listen or feel for?

Yes. I liked all my shee at +4. Noticeable difference.
