I had a HMF slip on and no lid with a dyno jet stage 2 kit. Ran perfectly and the spark plug always looked good. I added The CS timming key and a hot cam stage 1. It seems like it is smoking a little bit more and running a little hotter. Should i have to rejet after the hotcam1 and timming key? Thanks

when you get a timing key it will advance it 6 degrees and makes it run a lil hotter and idk if u will have 2 jet it but u might but it will still run hotter i run 20-50w vavoline motorcycle oil in mine so it helps me some with bein cooler

the timing key is def wut made it run hotter...mine runs really hot when its slow trails and warm out.

the smoking will not have anything to do with the timing key...might just be coincidence

are you sure you are not too lean on your jetting? I ask that because jet kits are kind of a joke....just because they suggest a certain jet...doesn't mean it is correct for your applications
