I did the rest of my testing today, on the stand (no riding). Looks good. Ran about 15 minutes, with no loss of synch - trigger +/- stayed at 0! Cool! With the stock VR circuit I would have been have seen trigger +/- trip at least 25 times in that time.

This synch loss was the last problem I had with the non-tuning side of the FI conversion. Now back to the tuning. Next step will probably be to try MS2Extra.

Sportage, thanks again for the help.

Cheers,
Paul

good luck with the tuning!

bike engines are easier to tune, i find, than car engines. pure alpha-n, lots of cam, and little inertia make for fun 4th gear power slides. oops... that was a customer's bike :lol:
