Grandpa always said if it aint broke don't fix it....Put your new tape on and ride it some more. If you are too rich, sooner or later it will act like the choke is on and start back firiong through the exhaust, then you will know you have a problem.

I would disagree on always. My pipes go from black to blue to gold. It has more to do with how much heat is going threw. I understand a lean bike will be hotter. But a beefed up 1200 that's tuned and is run very hard will change all kinds of colors. And color isnt dependent on lean or rich

I didnt disagree with your statement. I disagree with the always statement. Just because you stated you had 32 years of exp? Does that mean you know everything?

The fuelpak only works in open loop, you need something to richen it up in closed loop. Spend $100 and get some XIEDS, and your bike will run a lot better and cooler. It'll idle a lot better too!
