Yes I did. I had to adjust the speedo by about 12%.Question? Did you install a speedo healer? Curious to know what the difference in with this mod and how it's going to affect the ODO on the bike (resale value?) Thanks!
You are right... looks sick on the Raven! It would look good on the wife's yellow and black too!
Oh well it runs like a champ; I would say that the MPG around town is better. On the highway . . . well its like running a civic wide out; you tell me. :tard:
I would agree. On our Skyline drive trip (Me and Dart at least) got about 60mpg! This was on 35 mph road, we generally were always between 3-4k for most of the time. On the way home down the freeway, not so goodaround town millage is better??
Stayed around 8k. I think I got mid 40s mpg.Yes, it really is. Just putting around town I am getting better. I would guess its because the bike doesn't lug around any more. It pulls its own weight better.around town millage is better??
It just keeps you off the throttle.Another question? Is this with or without the error correction for the miles?I would agree. On our Skyline drive trip (Me and Dart at least) got about 60mpg!

Average mpg for me on my commute has been about 51 mpg.
I do believe the odometer is ran off of the same sensor the speedometer is ran off of. If this is true then mine is factory accurate. I installed a speedohealer same day as the sprockets then did the math from the gearing change and adjusted the speedo 10.1% this set it back to really close to a factory setting. (That is still off by like 3-7%)Another question? Is this with or without the error correction for the miles?
When you change the sprockets as noted, it changes the ODO as well. Meaning, the mile that is indicated on the ODO is less than what an actual mile really is.
Your MPG hasn't really changed when you consider "physical/linear" miles driven.
If you have a "measured mile" near by, drive it on the bike by starting out with the trip meter reset to ZERO. After the measured mile, look down to see how many 10ths over one mile the ODO reads.
Both bikes have stock gearing. Well I checked and yes they are ran off of the same sensor. The ECU "estimates" miles traveled off of MPH and time. =DUnsure is the same sensor feeds both... Good question!
Here's an interesting gem too. When my wife and I go out touring on the bikes and stop for gas, we always reset the trip meters. For every recorded 100 miles on the FZ1 trip meter, her FZ6R records 96.4 miles.
Has anyone tried running a measured mile using the trip meter? It's too damned cold here for me to try at the moment... maybe this weekend.
