Motorcycle EFI?

[Dave Balfour]

I knew if i hung around here for a while some other motorcyclists
would pop up. One other problem that i can think of is the dwell
of an injector. How many times can it be turned on and off to
maintain sychronization for an individually fired circuit. My
application (1000 cc Yamaha) has rev limiter at 12,000 rpm and now
peaks at around 10,000 rpm. It idles at 1,000 rpm. I also noticed
that eldebrock sells a system that has smaller (physically)
injectors. I am assuming that smaller generally means quicker.

| That's right.  That's what I was thinking might be "the great 
| equalizer".  My bike red lines at about 9K.  And if I remember
right, I 
| think I have 4 35mm carbs with velocity stacks.  That's a lot of
air 
| moving through there.
| 
| Hiway cruising is about 3000-3500 though.  That might be the
kicker, 
| getting something to operate within the extreme range of this
machine.
| 
| It may not happen.

Here's

ford

size of the
