Exhaust Advancer

(1/1)

vaaprider:
Can anyone explain to me how the exhaust advancer,  (in the clutch cover) works?

KX500freak:
it works this way:

when you gain rpm the kips actuator gets activated by centrifugal force ,
that way the actuator (the little arm that connects to the cylinder )
starts to pull out the rod which links the 2 powervalves together .
at idle it,s closed ,full rpm makes it stand wide open

there are a bunch of tips and tricks to it ,like keep the assembly clean of carbon,
make sure they are adjusted correct ,not overclosing  in either way

awak100:
I'm kinda like you vaap, I've always wanted to either pull or add shims to that thing, just to see what happens
