Well I've got one of these on order now. Hopefully it is here before early next week and I can fling it on and see what sort of difference it makes
I would have thought its just a case of swapping the advanced back over for the OEM one to undo it. I was going to wait till after the full Monty as well, but may as well fling one on now for a few weeks and then see what difference it makes after full Monty is done as well. Are you planning on dyno ing your bike after you have had the full Monty done Bbb?
Yes, with the "slip on" version its dyno'd at 134bhp at the back wheel and the fueling is pretty much spot on......according to Mike the gains are an additional 5-6bhp over the "slip on" so I should get it to approx. 140bhp........then I'd fit the advancer, road test it and dyno it again.

1.) a gasket - isn't this "compartment" dry? Has anyone''s gasket come apart when you opened the case? Re-used the gasket? 2.) Yamabond? i have heard engine builders swear by this stuff, but really - won't a small smear of silicon gasket do the same job?
I have purchased one of these and just taken the cover off to have a go at fitting. I have backed out for tonight as have found the bolt too tight to remove with my small socket set and will have a go with a larger one tomorrow when the light is better. Just a little concerned at the amount of pressure required to free the bolt and the effects on the cam chain turning as I don't want to upset anything. Should I be concerned or just use more force? Any advice appreciated. Thanks
