Timing retard on 2014 R3R?


I think you should change your tag line from "Destroyer "to "Revitalizer". Provided it works when you get that battery charged...
 
Now imaging that about 5 feet behind you while you are going 5mph waiting for slow poke Nolton to appear in your mirrors after leaving a site seeing spot... you count the oil drain bolts to make sure they are all there to inform Steel that his bike is in good working order and you drop the hammer to get out of his way...
 

I still can't see Steel's oil drain bolts!!!
 
To answer the OP question about timing.

1,2,3 have "some" ignition retard, was looking it over last night actually. The strangest part is that the retard is in the 0-20 percent throttle area only.

As far as front leaving the ground in 2nd on a stock bike. I'v had mine do it, full throttle in first and a quick shift to second popped it right up. The flywheel action keeping the engine spun up, fast shift, and fast back on throttle and up she came. I'm only 6'3", 180 though, so pretty much anything will power wheelie if I'm on it as long it isn't a Hardly Ableson.
