i dont think its necessarily, hot climate, but actual engine temp. and engine temp as a factor in detonation.
it was thought the yamaha banshee could be safely advanced so far because the engine was essentially a RD350 engine (air cooled street motorcycle) that yamaha added water cooling to and stuck it in a quad. presumably yamaha was either too lazy, or playing it very safe, and left the timing the same.
