How do you change CO setting?

I did this, changed to 14 on all cylinders. Promptly changed it back after a few rides. Makes the lean surge and smoothness of the throttle a bit better, but you lose some of that snappiness from my experience. Felt........doughier. And my fuel economy suffered.

Nobody, has given any type of firm answer to what it is that they are actually changing. I know it is fuel, because I could smell how rich the bloody exhaust was with each increase in value. But what ranges? What rpm does it alter values at? Just closed loop? All the time? Nobody knows. But everybody is doing it. Counter intuitive.

And I had the weird result also of increased engine temp. Not worth it IMHO. Leave it up to the PCV or a dyno tune.
 
you don't have to set it to 14, you can set it to a lower value if you want. just try some intermediate values and find the best compromise.
I tried from as low as 2 all the way up to 14, stepping up in increments of 2. Each time, got progressively smoother on throttle, but progressively worse elsewhere lol.

At 0-0-0.......she bloody rips, and I find it to be the best setting.

Good to see people playing around though, just wish someone could give a firm answer to what it is that they are actually changing!!!!
