AFR gauge

I have an innovate motorsports LM-1 for my drag car that I'd like to try on the bike. I think the jetting is quite a bit off. At 17000 miles the emulsion tubes could be worn....

I guess the best place to bung would be in the single collector?

Yeah that makes most sense. I have the LC-1 from my car that's been collecting dust that I've been thinking about using too. They might have a recommendation somewhere on their site in regards to a motorcycle exhaust placement.

Another site had some sort of probe in the end deal. Looked ridiculous and way more complicated than it needed to be. Might be a good idea for those yuppies that don't want to or don't know how to drill and weld a bung.

Another cool thing to do would be to clamp some thermocouples on each cylinder header to determine consistency.

I say you should do it. The LM-1 is much nicer than my LC-1. I would love to see a graph of my AFR's.

If you really wanted to get serious, you could buy 3 more LC-1's and run one on each cylinder.

I'll do it after I get the ford coil in. I even have a bung.

Hey the idle mixture screws are underneath the carbs right? My off-idle tune is pretty lean. It seems to be way worse with the tank cover off.

yes they're right under the float bowls.
