    Anyone in the 8th gen adjusted the factory fuel mix or had it done with those of us living at 4100ft higher than sea level? I still think that I am running pretty rich. I as sure are factory setting for the bike on the west coast being California settings. Anyone in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Oregon, Washington st. want to pipe in on this. Canadian friends are welcome as well. Thanks.

    Are you talking about fitting a power commander?


    The ecu automatically adjusts for altitude.

    Fuel injected engines do not require fuel mix adjustments.....ever. That's one of the main benefits of FI...it uses O2 sensors, and an ECU to take care of it all by itself. Other than being down on power, mine runs great, even when I'm up in the hills at over 10k ft.
