Re: bike shoots flames
this is just how i would explain it from how i understand this stuff, might be totally wrong... but there is always unburnt fuel when you close the throttle, if your running rich there will be more of it but it will cause your exhaust temps to be lower and not burn, if your running lean your exhaust gas temps will be high enough to cause ignition when the unburnt fuel reaches the air outside of the exhaust

some bikes have more than others. harley's, for example, have closed-loop systems. most jap bikes are open loop, and the FI system can only compensate so much.

that's a damn good way of putting it. you're about spot on.
see above. backfiring, especially on deceleration, is usually a lean condition. but i understand why people would automatically think otherwise.

nope.
but with all the stuff you're doing to increase airflow in and out of the motor, you really should get a PC to match the fuel flow to the air flow.
