It's a very limited form, used for checking for
misfires (as required by the upcoming OBD-III regs --
Harley really looked ahead when designing the Delphi
ECU), but yes, they do use ion sensing (first
motorcycle OE to do so).  However, it would require a
lot more signal processing to, say, run closed-loop
spark timing, or determine combustion efficiency, via
ion sensing.
