Ignition timing

I have a black box ignition system.  The timing plate is fixed in one spot.  is the plate for the red ignition system adjustable?

Yes the red box plate is adjustable. You can also make the black box plate adjustable by slotting the mount screw holes.

And what is the advantage?  I know what it does in a regualr car motor but are these motors not set up from yamaha for the best performance anyways?

Thier is a little to gain just like a car engine.  Another consideration with timing is fuel, some fuels require diffrenet timing due to the different burn rates.

It is sure looking like we will be on pump (93 oct.) fuel next year. I think that is a good thing. So there would be no gain by advanceing your timing.
