It would be fun to see how Randy's FI bike would do as well. But I think he still needs to map 4th and 5th gear. Maybe 3rd as well, getting to the top end in third gear is moving quite fast, not easy to do without a dyno.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

*I think* Randy sent his FI system over to Chris for use on his race bike.

Assumed you were a Center guy.  I'm an engineer. I was in ATO for a while, but back in AVS now.

NAS Operations Manager at ZOA. We probably know some of the same people. I have a few engineer friends that work at the Tech Center in Atlantic City.
