Default Gas milage before and after a stage 1

How has your milage changed after a stage 1, or a needle lift?

Default RE: Gas milage before and after a stage 1

Yes my son's did. You richen them up some gas mpg will drop some. My son still gets in the high 40's close to 50 but he has not hit it since the stage I. And it runs a hell of a lot better no more farting back thru the carb. They should be assshamed of them selves the way the bikes run after a stage I. My son had to do a little fine tuning on his to get it runnning the way they should run. Had to do about the same thing to mine after there so called worthless download. I will know next time to not let them touch it.

What was the top end after the stage one was put in? My stock bike is getting 110 to 115 mph.
