[QUOTE="Robert Watson, post: 106610, member: 38"] With the innovate "sniffer" I asked the Chevy LS hot rod guys next door to me, who of course tune by computer with specific LS programs. They have one guy who is an absolute whiz (and well over the age of 50!) and he reckoned that if we got too close to 12.7 on an air cooled (and fuel cooled) motor we would be asking for trouble for street use. On the first bike we did, a Comet, we were well in the 20's all over to start. We started on the pilot, then the cutaway and finally on the main and got the numbers in the 14-17 range. Gas mileage improved from somewhere very dismal to up over 50 mpg so thought we should leave it there. Before all this techie stuff I would get a nice tick over idle and then start looking to get mileage in the 50 - 55 range on a nice 65-70 mph 100 mile potter on the local highway. [/QUOTE]

The Series 'A' Rapide was known as the '********' Nightmare?
