    Ok, new ICM should be in today from Thunderheart. Issue is now knowing where to start on the timing. Can anyone toss me some info on what a good starting point would be for this. It is an 883C, Stock Carb, and VanceHines pipes.

    Well our local bunch of UPS employees are a bunch of retards :rant: and couldn't find my house 3 days after leaving a package here from the same people before. So it will be tomorrow now before I see it if then.

    I have been to thunderhearts site and read through both instruction sheets online. They tell you HOW to adjust but not where to start for what bikes. Well other than the speedo setting, they do have a chart for that.

    I found some information on another site that had some factory specs, so I will start with those knowing they aren't exactly the best but a good starting point to tweak from.

    I would still appreciate any info folks around here may have. Not real comfy with only one source for information about anything, especially my new hobby.
