I'm just trying to avoid spending too much idling time warming up from the cold garage - not that I let it idle very long, building up carbon deposits.
As is (summer) I mentioned that I have to ride several miles just chugging it to keep it down under say, 70 lbs.
That would be much longer on cold days. Maybe I'll get an oil heater for the tank to help, but now I'm spending money again. Seems like I have more pressure from the 1/4" lift of the slug than I really need - 45-50 at cruise and 20 idle.
