Team, have a question regarding the more simple ‘fuel’ controllers such as RB Easy (etc) and the new Fuelx, in particular the units which interrupt the o2 sensor to gain the fuel control.
These controllers are somewhat marketed as a good option to smooth out the bike and to allow for minor modification I.e exhaust/ intake - specifically the Fuelx mentions this. I just installed the Fuelx lite this morning and went for a quick blat, definitely much nicer bike to ride in traffic/ slow etc. and power delivery seems much smoother.
My question is, if the o2 sensor is on the closed loop, would this mean I am only able to run ‘richer’ while in the closed loop and as soon as I crack the throttle open and enter open loop I just go back to standard fuel map and start running lean - assuming I had made an exhaust/ air intake upgrade? Or does the engine’s MAP sensors etc take over in the open loop to add fuel to compensate for increased airflow due to mods and ensure the AFR is within tolerance - even if this was at the stock level of lambda 1, rather than leaner?
