Title: 87 KX500 Static Ignition Timing
Post by: Bikingbagga on December 26, 2016, 02:29:40 AM

I understand setting the timing dynamically with a strobe light but what is the initial static setting BTDC.

17 deg BTDC @ 6000 RPM is the only info I have recorded..

The reason I'm asking is that I'm installing an aftermarket ignition so I need to at least set it up with an initial static setting. Any suggestions what that might be?
