Guys and gals,
Today I am scheduled to receive the bike bullets and can finalize power and ground connections to my AFR gauge. To get a background and pictures of what I'm talking about, check out the below thread:
https://www.hondarebelforum.com/f18/52mm-afr-gauge-mounting-122021-3.html
I decided to start a new thread because the following discussions are more appropriated under, "...Carburetor, Fuel System..." than it would be in the thread above.
My only target at this time to come from obtaining AFR data, is to improve the AFR under WOT conditions. I've had some time to think about this, and this is what I've come up with. From 65 mph to whatever top speed the bike may attain, the performance is dismal. Not unexpected though, as we are only given 233.9 cc's! I expect it runs leaner than optimal AFR at WOT. It seems it runs a lean at cruise speeds too, but personally, I'm OK with it because the mpg is so good. So, my efforts at this time are for WOT performance only. Any other data is good to know, but I don't intend to change it.
What I want to provide to the forum members here are at least the following things. Feel free to add to the list, and I will achieve those where possible. The below measurements to be done on my totally stock (at the moment) Rebel.

- Cold and choked idle AFR
- Warm idle AFR (no choke)
- Cruise AFR (5th gear, from 30 mph to 60 mph in 5 mph increments)
- WOT AFR (5th gear, from 55 mph to 80 mph in 5 mph increments)
