Feels rich on top going over summits. The E1 feels stronger. Ran 87 AKI all day. 100* temps canyon carving with three Hondas; two 1000s and one 600. Some good average speeds maintained on the straights.

Need to take it down a notch in October: sand, rain, slick paint, cold surface and tire temps.

MPG dropped due to pace. Another guy said he normally gets about 220 to the tank and today his needed fueling by 170. Ran straight 89 octane in an ongoing experiment to determine if lower octane produces better MPG. Inconclusive.

More civilized riding, mostly uphill though. Still higher than expected given that and the high speed cruise. Found electrical short. The positive battery terminal was cross threaded and loose. Replaced. Don't know how bad that affected today's run, if at all.

Better still and I distinctly remember pulling some wheelies passing groups of cars. I would have figured <50 MPG, considering all the high RPM stuff.

Better than stock. Riding like a stole it. Hwy conditions with 1/2 of the trip clearing two summits and ~100 miles of canyon type roads.

Tuned the bike finally identical to the E1 ZX-9r. The bike runs like a top and this initial fueling seems to indicate that even with different carbs the setups translate between models.
