January 27, 200422 yr Author Hey Mark - I don't know Chuck well enough to know if he intentionally set the timing advanced or not, so I'm not laying blame anywhere - I'm just happy to have the issue resolved. The bike sure seems to like the new settings... no more banging and rattling, just smooth Beta power - that's the way, aha aha, I like it, aha aha.
January 27, 200422 yr Author Billy - I ended up with the 40 pilot and the air screw set at two turns out (was 1 3/4) I still have the 145 main jet (may go up to the 150 as I finish dialing this machine in...) Also, changing from NGK BP5ES to Champion N7YC didn't seem to make any noticeable difference. Hey, I'm curious... does Mikuni make a 'soft' throttle spring for the VM26; one made from smaller wire for less spring action?
