[QUOTE="Attila, post: 1185288, member: 19123"] Does anyone know are have access to information regarding the ignition timing on the FJR? The shop manual gives the initial timing as 5 degrees BTDC @ 1050 rpm. I'm looking for the total number of degrees at maximum advance. My dealer doesn't know nor does the tech rep at Yamaha in California that I talked to by phone, so I'm cluless. I bought a new timing wheel from Yamaha with the thought of degreeing the wheel, installing it and checking it with a Ferret type timing light which will be a chore if I can't get the information any where else. The shop manual say's that the timing is not adjustable but of course like most all things, nothing is impossible, diffulcult maybe but not impossible. The FJR has a ton of low end grunt anyway and so more timing might not help it but it would be nice to know what it is. I've never understood why Yamaha failed to include this information in the manual because both my XS-1100 and my V-Max did but then it's probably out there I just haven't found it. Thank's for your help. [/QUOTE]
