With the pot set fully clockwise the timing will be static as per graph.
Just off fully clock the timing will be "BDK RANGE".
The timing is adjustable in between "BDK RANGE" and "DEGREES
29k-50,31Y/K-50,52Y-50 & 1UA-50"
With the pot fully anticlockwise the timing will be standard to your particular
cdi (degrees 29K-50,31Y/K-50,52Y-50 & 1UA-50)
Note: the initial start point (degrees btdc) can be changed by
advancing/retarding
the stator plate. This will advance/retard the whole curve by the amount it is moved.
Cost of modifying a YPVS CDI is £140.00 + vat.
This is an example of fitting one of our CDi's to a Stan Stephens tuned 350YPVS, FII Race Bike, the Power Valves are fixed in the fully open position, it has Bored Standard Carbs with Ledair nozzels, Jolly Moto Pipes, with an airbox. 350MJ and C5 on the needle. Dyno1 Dyno2 The Standard CDi was 1UA-50.
We ran with the advance set at mid position, 12 O'Clock, and got more or less the gains shown, we jetted to suit, and then reduced the advance untill we started to loose power, this was about 11 O'Clock on the adjusting pot.

IGNITION TIMING Degrees/RPM
With the adjusting pot fully anti-clockwise the timing will be standard(47x or 1ge).
Fully clockwise is the same timing asTZ500 (corrected for con rod,stroke length). The std ignition cuts out approximately 5% of the sparks at about 9800rpm increasing to approx 20% at 12000rpm. This circuit is completely removed and will not effect the timing even in standard setting.
We are currently charging £140.00 for the ignition(CDI) modifications and £140.00 for the p/ valve control units, however, if they are ordered/done as a pair we are charging £240.00 in total. The reason for this is that they do complement each other and it is easier for us to set up.

RG400/500 ADJUSTABLE SAEC .
As can been seen from the graph, the optimum point to close the p/valves (on
this bike), would be approx. 7100rpm,where approx. 8bhp would be realised from
7100 to 8300 rpm. This very much depends on how mismatched the p/valves are to
start with. The example shown had been optimised for mid range power, with
loosing too much top end, before adjusting the p/valves. However, although
Suzuki say the valves turn at 7800 this varies by at least +/-200rpm. There is
a time delay from p/valves starting to close to actual closing point, we have
tried to address this by adding a circuit to sense rate of change of rpm . A
high rate of change will start to open the valves approx. 180 rpm earlier,(1st
or 2nd gear) and a low rate of change (6th gear) will start to open the p/v's
180 rpm later than set. In the example p/v's started to turn at approx. 8200rpm.
The best way to find the optimum point is by running on a dyno with valves
fixed closed, and then open, to get the curves as above.
The range of adjustment is from 6000to 8000 rpm with a calibrated and graduated
scale. There is also a calibration pot (which should not require adjustment)
that could be used to extend the range.

The Graph below shows the effect of changing the power valve timing on a Graham File Tuned TZR250.
This is the only change that was made, no jetting, ignition timing or adjustments of any kind.
Power Valve Control
Below are some of the options for changing the power valve starting to opening rpm and the fully open rpm's.
Above example was using the standard TZR250 1KT program. This was reprogramed to prog' 14 (Top Row). As you can see this changed the initial movement of the power valve from 5850 rpm to 6000rpm, and the power valve was not fully opening untill 10050rpm this was changed to 8550rpm, the power gains are seen above. The eg' for the RD/RDZ500 uses RD500 (standard) and is reprogramed to prog' 8, for mildly tuned engines or prog' 18 for highly tuned engines.
The switch options 1 to 12 are fitted so all the programs listed are available by turning different combinations on/off.
