I've done the following so far:

1) Backed up my stock EEPROM
2) Took screenshots of all starting values
3) Reset the TPS
4) Reset the AFV
5) Checked for any codes (none)

Here's a pic of my fuel tables front and rear..do they look right to y'all?

It doesn't really matter what they look like .....If the bike is running OK you are far better just leaving the maps alone.
99% of the time the most useful part of ecmspy is being able to do a tps reset , next most useful is using it to diagnose the problem if you get a fault.Only ever change the fuelling if you are 100% sure what you are doing and why you are doing it.

And let the ecu decide what the AFV should be ...........only worry about it if it goes to some stupidly high or low setting that denotes a possible problem, the ecu changes the AFV for a reason so manually changing it back will just mean the ecu has to change it all over again.

Well damn..everything I read said it should be at 100%. It was at like 140 or so..

As Kevmean says, if it is running fine, I wouldn't fool with it.

And you are correct, the AFV should be at 100. That represents the value on a stock motorcycle in a good state of tune, on a day with the same ambient temp as specified by the engineers as 'standard'. The ECU does have the ability to 'learn' and adapt for local conditions. A bike in Leadville, Colo on a 90degF day may show an AFV of 90, which would be proper. At sea level on a 35degF day, the same bike may need a value of 115.

If you bike starts, idles, and runs well at 140, then so be it. Esp if you have a non-stock intake or exhaust. I would just keep an eye on it. And if you changed it to 100, that's OK too. Just check it once and a while to see where it goes and compare that to how the engine performs.

Hope this helps, Dave

Thanks Dave.

How do my front and rear fuel map ratios look, in relation to each other?
