betaboy123 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 What I got told was that 2 gives more revs and is for dry conditions and 1 gives less revs and is for wet conditions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betaboy123 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 What I got told was that 2 gives more revs and is for dry conditions and 1 gives less revs and is for wet conditions But it does not make a difference in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pindie Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) I found this on my Raga. I think it applies more to torque tthan horse power. The changes are very slight and you need to be very accurate to feel the difference. I would not worry about it. The switch is not a miracle button.

outlaw dave Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 The #2 position advances the timing - and therefore more revs, it is noticeable on the Beta, but only at larger throttle openings - We have not seen much difference on the Sherco. - In fact one customer asked if the wires were connected to anything !!

billyt Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) As Dave say's. To add to that, one will only feel the difference in the mid to top end range. Nothing different to feel in the low RPM's range regardless of switch position. We have experimented with this switch on many occasions and that is our findings.

rlracer Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 The graph chart that I saw showed the maps were mirror images till 3500 rpm then they split. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
