Stiffening advance springs
« on: November 21, 2008, 12:42:42 PM »
So I thought the reason why my bike won't rev over 7k was due to my timing. My 'F' marks were far retarded and the plate was maxed out. Took off the plate and looked at the springs. I could see there was a little free play from weakened springs. To help increase the distance I used heat shrink. The smallest size slipped on the post and contoured the extrusion where the spring seats. Added a couple thousandths to get the spring tought. It did help a little bringing the 'F' mark into sight.
