I am under the understanding that the most accurate way to test is to drill the headers on the vertical part to accomodate sensors as the balance pipe makes it difficult to differentiate between left and right cylinders.

I am not brave enough to do this so my mate who owns a dyno adjusted the settings by ear blink.gif and the dyno now shows 1bhp improvement but, more importantly, the revs top out 1 second quicker in top gear. No more stuttering on pullaway too banana.gif .

This is with the air box mod and the CO settings were reduced by 10 on both sides. Don't know what the actual CO percentages are.


Jez,

you said they were reduced by 10, so what are they now ?

C1 is 9, C2 is 10.

Notes from previous owner suggest orginal settings C1-18 and C2-19. He then tried 30 and 25, and 20 and 20. Obviously going richer was not the way in this case but, as someone here said, each bike is different.

Thanks to previous owners for keeping all this paperwork in tact drinks.gif . You know who you are.
Red and black '96. Blue spot Thunderace calipers with braided two-line front hoses - 'kin brill. 17 incher out front. Renthal street/trail bars - vibe free. 1150GS brush guards. HIDs - niiiiice. Stebel Magnum - crikey. Nonfango hard luggage. Nexxus. SW-Motech center stand. Had a Powerbronze tall screen - too noisy - went back to standard.

Stealth Diamond Black 900 with lurvely black frame. GS brush guards. HotGrips on a relay - cos I keep forgetting. SW-Motech center stand and engine bars. LED rear light. Vario set to min. 17 incher. PR2s.

All now a fond (very fond) memory. Maybe again some day.
