Hi Vince,This is a very good technical thread, but doesn't really answer the question that's niggling me and probably a few more owners of standard Vincents....... What is now the best setting for a standard bike for general riding using lead free petrol as supplied in the UK? .......
If it was possible for the factory in the `40s to provide a good compromise, surely with so much knowledge in the VOC someone can tell us how many degrees we should be using now?
