where do you want your AFR to be and at what value does it become too lean?

Ideal would be 11.2 - 11.5 and not to go over 12.0 WOT

Idle it can be in the 12s to low 13s even driving on the trail you could see it in the mid to high 12s with little to no boost. The motor has like 9.5:1 compression. The concern is at WOT, that's when you want to see it at high 11s low 12s. I have 2 superchargers and 2 boosted sleds... so I have been around the block a few times.
If you keep the numbers in the high 10s and 11s cruising with little to no load or boost you will waste fuel.

Few seconds... not at the compression of the SW. Zero load lower boost no way. If u were seeing mayb 13, I would be more concerned.

I would ask them about a flash. I had heard they run lean up top.

If it were me I would Call OSP and check with them..
Or it sounds like you want ride without calling or a tune.. I will say its VERY hard to not squeeze the flipper to the bar on these things,.. You do it once its like super addictive .. that's going to be the issue, why chance it? We got a whole riding season ahead of us!!
