Re: Fx 140 Speed Question???
yy, i show 10200 on my tach. and yer right i think about there questionalbe accuracy. probably close enough for us. i think a little over 10k is ok, and if i remember correctly the airfiler and stacks is supposed to increase rpm, some. not to 11-12 though. if yer a bit over 10 and at the speed yer going per yer dreamometer, sounds about right then to me.
the oil check methods just plain suck on the these fx140s. however, here's what i've found and is not to hard to do. per the book, 1st ride of the day. start out at 7k for 5 min. then idle for 2, then check it.(i do use a watch for this) this oil level reading is what i've found to be most accurate for my 02. keep an eye on the oil level too. mine uses oil. some folks will say, nah, but i say, yep, i kept track of my consuption and it was quite distressing. however at about a 175 hrs the use has gone down. who knows, it's just now getting broke in???? really.... anyways. keep an eye on it. but most of all, ride and have fun now that ya gottem runnin sweet.....
