Not a true choke, just increases the rpms at idle and allows the bike to warm up. Also, I did find that mpg decreased, but worth it IMO.

I tried this and it worked like a charm. It raises the idle just a little and keeps you from havin to bugger the advance from cold to warm settings.

I started bass-ackward? Put on a single plate from Chuckster 2 weeks ago.....still stock exhaust with no programmer. Did it for the looks for now as much as anything. Now reminds me of my '74 Buick when we used to turn the air cleaner lid over........really sux the air. Still gettin 40 mpg.

Well you will have to Vision some things for it and see what comes of it. :-)

Nah, no wrong order. I think the fuel processor will affect mileage more than anything.

I hadnt thought about doing that in years. Whenever me and my Moms 68 Buick LeSabre left the house on Fri/Sat night the air cleaner got flipped over. You're right, an 8 cyl 4 bbl really sux. A couple of times I forgot to flip it back. She would get back in it the next day and tell me something was broken. I would go out and "fix" it. Sorry Mom.
