Is the bike on stock exhausts or Termis? I'd misread the thread and assumed you had Termis hence the CO adjustment idea. If the performance ECU is fitted, then adjustment is possible. If it's stock, the lambda in the front header could be playing up...

full termi system and race ecu i checked the air filter yesterday and it looked like a termi one, but today i saw on the net the oem one is similar(dont know if the air filter will make much difference or not.

well ive been out today on a blast and managed 85 mile until the light(spirited ridding) then 15 mile with the light on, when i filled up i got just under 12ltr in. ambient temp was between 10-13 all day and the bike was running a bit hotter so i think its been down to the weather. it was my first proper blast on the twisties and jesus there mental out of corners

The ECU will be adjustable then....
85 mile isn't that bad tbh. Same set up on mine got down to 65 ish with 80 being the "norm". I'd see how you go now the weather is warming and get it set up at the next service just to be sure.

thermostat isn't opening til about 70 or 80 so covering rad wouldn't help a great deal. The cold running will have an effect, but a setup is probably the best course.

ok chaps ive just been on the phone to my local dealer M&S motorcycles newcastle the guy i spoke to passed my info on to the ducati mechanic and he said that a reset wouldnt make that much difference tbh and the Co cant be adjustd on a 1098. so im wondering if i should just wait till the weather warms up and see what happens from there. on a side note does the oil constantly run throught the oil cooler or only when its up to temp like the coolant?
