1.27 +/- 0.1mm BTDC http://www.3wheelerworld.com/oldsite/files/Manuals/YTZ250S.PDF you might need to download this PDF to view it, go to last page (service data)

18degrees BTDC at 2000RPM http://www.3wheelerworld.com/showthread.php/126115-YTZ-250-Tri-Z-Service-Data

I don't know if this info is all correct there is something weird in the PDF file, in the same section (service data) it says spark plug NGK B9ES and the first page (cylinder head parts list & diagram) NGK B8ES

Thanks Dave I had it set at 1.66 it just didn't seem right today, ill re set tomorrow, on the plugs side they both do work but I think the No9 just runs hotter
