Hi Frank. They are good consumption figures of yours for sure. No one is doubting that. My last reply was mainly in reference too your comment believing I was probably running rich with the settings I changed to last week.
I believe comparing your bike to mine is only confusing matters here. We can talk about that later. In my last I was able to show my fuel economy has improved with my new settings and as I've already mentioned my bum dyno tells me I'm not touching these new settings as before Ferdie was sluggish midrange to wot. Hey, my midrange is that much more responsive now I rarely have to open up the mains.
In short, my fuel consumption is showing I am running leaner (not richer) and, these new settings are more suited power wise to my bike. I was just responding to your suggestion Frank.
Regarding comparisons between your consumption stats and mine, what's the point?
You have 790 cams and 18 tooth counter sprocket and I have 865 cams and 17 tooth sprocket. You ride too up and I ride one up. Where are we going here?
I personally am not in the business of comparing my bike with others. It's a no brainer mate. I've responded to your original suggestion and as far as I'm concerned with Ferdie, he's running like a champion. I do however have a new chain and sprockets I purchased from "the chain gang" before they went broke (they only sold quality), and I'm waiting for my current ones to wear out. That's when I'll be able to put on the 18 tooth counter sprocket sitting there and with it, improve my current fuel consumption specs. Until then:
