[QUOTE="Albervin, post: 115449, member: 586"] WOW> 37º is certainly not an optimum. There must be an internal issue with the BTH or your timing disc is not calibrated :-) On the ride back from the motordrome your bike was certainly not a happy bike. My BTH is an original new one; the coils just had points for the leads not screws. It was set up at 34º originally and again when I rebuilt the engine in 2014. I have never pulled the body apart and I live 800m from the sea.I will need to replicate the easy starting I had this week to "prove" it was the coil change that has made the difference. Anyway, if it runs and behaves then enjoy. I trust the big storm didn't impact too much on you. [/QUOTE]
