Agreed, I should have stated that he deserved "some" credit. He may or may not pick up performance but his combustion chamber temps are running too high at WOT and inviting damaging detonation. That engine should not be run at WOT until that is corrected.

He was focusing more on just straightening the AF line out first since he can just drop the whole thing down to 13 once its straight.

Bike is all apart in the garage right now so it's not being ridden anywhere. Got my new bars on but still have to get around to doing the cables

Is he new to tuning? I'm not ragging on him, just trying to figure out the thought process he's using.

Nah been doing it for awhile but he'll be first to admit he's not the best at it. He's just had to learn along the way on his own since our owner won't spend the 1500$ to send him to a class.

The way he explained it to me was that once he has the line straight he can just adjust the whole table down. I have not a clue how any of this works. I look at the screen while we are in the dyno room and I am completely lost LOL
