Over in Misc Tech this can be seen in the 2009 Fuel Injection thread:

i want the efi, so that i don't have to mess with anything. i'm planning some trips into the mountains, and i live at sea level now. i don't want to have to worry about tinkering with my fuel mixtures as i climb in elevation, i'd rather just have a sensor and chip do all of that for me.



Hmmm. Got me thinking. I live at 4000 feet and just spent a few days at sea level. The bike ran great in Seattle. It runs good here in Helena but maybe not quite that good. I didn't touch the carbs at all during the trip (does that make me a bad person? <--rhetorical). Does that mean I'm running too lean at 4000 feet? If I recall correctly I have the following config:

Short TORs
TBS needles, no shims
Bellacorse Thumbscrews (can't remember the turns, possibly 2)
Drilled slide holes
stock springs
K&N Freak-style filters
42 pilots
145 mains

I haven't looked at the sparkplugs lately.
