As for knock, you would need a genuine ms3 to do it right. I am running a ms3x with the dual knock board in my drift car and it works great. Problem is a ms3x would be way overkill for a single cylinder engine and would add about $600 to the cost. I plan on just slowing turning up the timing until I can hear knock, then back it off like 2 degrees. The great thing about these chineese bikes is everything is dirt cheap, so if I kill a piston its only like $30 and a few hours time.
Thanks for the info. $600 would be more than half the cost of the bike lol. With HPtuners It was so nice to be able to log a few runs and go back in adjust the timing where there was knock. So for a 230cc engine i'll need to use the megasquirt basemap generator before I even think about starting the engine. Did you take it out for a run yet?
