don't be suprised if you get lower mileage numbers after modifying the engine and adding some fuel to obtain the best results from the modifications made.
now that being said you don't have to add any fuel if you don't want to. the unit is fully in your control. try reducing your settings which will take you closer to the stock amount of fuel that you originally had before modifying the engine and adding a fuel controller.
i understand that everyone probably wants to get better mileage with the current gas prices and that's up to them. but don't modify your engine with performance enhancing products and expect stock mileage numbers that's really never going to happen and if it does the engine will die a horrible lean death with mods and no fuel to go with them"
Plenty of reading over here at the Users Forum, oops, can I say that?

The 7:00 setting was more correct and kicked in at 4000, plus even keeps the green from working till 1200 rpm.
I have a similar setup: 2004 RKC, SE a/c, and Wild Pig slip-ons. I had it set to the recommended settings, but found from other forums that the yellow pot (at 6:00) is aimed at a full exhaust replacement. Settings I use now work well and cured the "shortness of breath" at WOT too:
Green: 3:15
Yellow: 4:30
Red: 4:15
RPM: 7:00
The odd RPM setting came from other users who found that in this position, it acts like 4:00 but holds the red pot until 1200 rpm. Don't know for sure what it does, but I do know that my bike runs strong in any gear and is strongest now at WOT. Popping is gone on decel from high rpm. Let me know how this works for you.
It is here somewhere........ In the meantime, here is a Newsflash from Dobeckbarrygreen said:I see some are setting the RPM pod at 7, why and what did you gain? :whisper:
My current settings are 2:30, 3, 3, 4.
