[QUOTE="Nigel Spaxman, post: 95921, member: 2907"] I use the standard settings on my Goldstar, my Norton Commando and also on my Triumph Bonneville. I have been doing this experimenting on the Vincent because I was thinking maybe a little less advance might be better, but now I don't think so. I have one Bonneville though with a very modified engine. It has 10:1 compression, and a 4 plug head. I have found it runs best on 34 degrees advance. On that engine the extra plug changes things quite a bit. (When I only had 2 plugs it used the standard 38 degree setting. [/QUOTE]
