I really think you should get to a dyno tune up because if you are using the lights and buttons you R note finish to pull out your hairs..

what is your setup on the bike? filters,pipe ?

I am no expert but mine doesn't move from lean unless I rev up the engine. You might want to take it to a dyno tuner. I tuned mine by using a O2 sensor on a pipe put into the exhaust and a air/fuel gauge to monitor it at the different RPMs and throttle positions. I like doing stuff myself and it took about three weeks to get a map that was smooth and not too rich or lean. If you don't want to wait and done perfect a tuner is the way to go.

took my bike to kcadby in Jacksonville Fl...he mad a custom map for it at a reasonable price. Bike runs strong and smooth...its worth the money in my opinion.

When in doubt, lean farther and go faster....
