[QUOTE="C5Performance, post: 139671, member: 2938"] I will tell you that it does not because jetting is controlled by the carburetors, not your ignition. The C5 burns more of the fuel that already made it into your engine and I question the accuracy of the Colourtune unless you showed me how it compared to an air/fuel meter at the same time. Certain not the accuracy of a quality EGA (Exhaust Gas Analyzer) with probes in each head pipe. Honda jetted these bikes lean to pass EPA testing, and I've shared proof. At 3100 rpm and below, your pilot jets and needle/nozzles control fuel. You should figure out at what rpm the needles first begin to lift. If the stutter is above that rpm your pilot jets are ok and the needle/nozzles are responsible for the issue. I hope I didn't confuse anyone. [/QUOTE]
