Tuning = CO setting + Airscrew setting
Cooler air better, coz its more dense than hotter air. But then there is a 3000 Ft altitude difference between Chennai and Bangalore. And they higher up we go, the air gets less dense. Coupled with a drop in atmospheric pressure. The tuning that I was running in Chennai was perfect to the T, the bike was a rocket and Chennai xBhpian's said the same after riding my bike post the 10K service. Here in Blore the tuning is leaned out to a great extent and performance is taking a beating, but I do get MUCH better mileage bcoz of that, its consistently around 37-38 here, whereas in Chennai I barely managed 30-32!

That my boy is misconception, there are primarily two types of ECU's one is open loop and the other is closed loop. The Closed loop sensors have a O2/Lambda sensor at the exhaust, which adjusts the tuning with change in O2 density. Ours is a Open loop with no such feature.
But, still the 220 is suprisingly able to cope with high altitude
sickness with great ease.
Guy, my bike is in for its 10th service (5th paid), any pointers?
