#93706 RoadieSL (User) 2004 Midnight Star Expert Boarder Posts: 463 As Things get Hotter 3 Years, 11 Months ago   My Jetting seem to work great at 70Deg but it has been in the mid 90's My ride just doesn't seem to have the get up and go when the temp is hot do I need to tweak the PMS pr what?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #93707 javawave (User) Over 17235 good days in a row and counting Platinum Boarder Posts: 5710 Re:As Things get Hotter 3 Years, 11 Months ago   My guess would be it is starting to run a little richer. Mine doesnt have the performance at 90 that it does at 75 either. Even my mileage goes down.   Logged     \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A mind full of judgment has little room for wisdom\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access. #93709 JHouse (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 204 Re:As Things get Hotter 3 Years, 11 Months ago   Wow, I'm feeling great now getting 44 mpg in 90 plus weather. This the first time I had ever checked my mileage.   Logged     Does this bike make me look fat?

I do not personally notice a change in performance, I do get slightly more popping on decel when it is hotter and that is about it. My mileage does not seem to change much either???   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #93735 Heavy (User) If you're going to play - play to win!

Moderator Posts: 6997 Re:As Things get Hotter 3 Years, 11 Months ago   The cooler (or cold 30's-40's) air is more dense , and I'll tell you , if you don't mind riding around the freezing mark , these bikes run fantastic. Yes , the hotter air takes away some of the "pop" that the cooler air naturally provides carbureted (?) bikes. But , look at the bright side , summers here!
