The ignition advance on these engines is extremely conservative.

I did pull the stator cover today to look into advancing the pickup, but decided to revisit it once my VFR is back on the road.

Since the stator and pickup are bolted to the cover itself, the mount for the pickup is essentially dowel pinned in place, with the dowels themselves being a part of the pickup bracket. It makes sense that it was done this way since there is no way to set or adjust the gap.

I have a plan in my head for how to achieve it, but I want to wait until I can afford to have my Hawk down just in case I break the pickup lol. There is a lot of room for the pickup to slide on the bracket, so if the bracket can be freed up from the pickup housing, it can be slid over. There is a lot of room to work with in that regard.

Or I may just drop the coin on the programmable CDI by that point.
