I fitted the 4 degree advancer to my standard fazer last night (15 mins), and took it to work this morning.It started quicker this morning and i didn't need to open the throttle slightly to get it to fire up. The differences are the throttle feels more responsive, a definite improvement with vibes on the motorway and it requires less throttle when driving on city streets. I noticed in stock form the bike sometimes bogged down slightly at low revs if you gave it a handful, but with the advancer it pulls cleanly. It's definitely worth doing either the way Mike has done or to buy one on ebay for £14.

If it's broken, it's not fixed.
