Default Ignition Advance Kit ?

Is the Ignition Advance Kit worth getting as its only £60 ?

apparently you need to run higher octane fuel, but also apparently the sv i made for 85 fuel and uk fuel is 90+ (dont ask me about details i have no idea what the fuel types are) so apparently uk standard fuel would be fine ?

any info at all would be good

PS it would have to be installed by proper mechanic as i dont have a impact drill

this is its apparent gains but i take them with a pinch of salt

For road riding I'd spend your money on something else personally. Unless you are going for maximum tuning and getting it set up properly on a Dyno, its not really worth it. That was the info i got when looking at tuning my Kwak.

You can get the same effect (whose gains are questionable) for free. Think about how it works.
