    Can I ask; why 14.7:1!? is it that most all bikes are that ratio (i.e. petrol engines) or is that specific to V990? Did you see the doner vid?

      The 14.7:1 is meant to be the perfect Air fuel Ratio for petrol engines but rich and lean will occur when riding a bike with no sensor. And I haven't seen the donar video where is it ?
