TRX250R87 is starting off with a positive reputation.
how much timing advance with regular fuel?

How much can I safely advance my timing on my EDGE tuner when using normal 87 octane fuel with ethanol?

ReAX is gaining momentum as a positive member of FTE.
That's going to depend on your final A/F mixture. The ethanol should allow you some room, but compression/heat build up may cause some detonation. The good news is the computer should back the timing out if you put too much advance in. If it has a knock counter in the display that will help figure out when your getting close.

Look, see these two tow hooks? They look like tusks. And what kind of animal has tusks?

there's a very fine line between not listening, and not caring. I like to think that I walk that line every day of my life.
