Had my bike dyno'd today and have been told its running rich, power is still good 71.6hp, i was told smaller jets would sort it out but is there anything else that i could do to help lean it out a little, would a better filter help things . As far as i'm aware my bike is stock apart from a Delkevic tri oval stubby.

SVs tend to run slightly on the rich side...well mine have. Better to run like that, than too lean.

How rich is rich?

its sitting at pretty much 12 right through the graph apart from at the start where its higher. The guy doing the run reckoned i could fit smaller jets to sort it. I just wondered if a K&N filter or something would let more air in and lean it out a little more. Whats considered to be the right mix for a SV
