Hey Guys
I just purchased a 2012 NC700X with 8400 miles on it yesterday.
I have had a couple fuel injected scooters, (Yamaha Majesty and Honda Silverwing) but this is my first fuel injected motorcycle. Both of those scooters had simple open loop FI without an O2 sensor in the exhaust.
1. Do all years of NC700 have an O2 sensor in the exhaust stream?
2. Does the fuel system have enough range to compensate for a lean condition from aftermarket mufflers?
3. I didn't see any O2 sensor on the muffler or exhaust pipe. Maybe I just missed it, where is it?
My bike came with some carbon fibre aftermarket can on it and the exhaust pipe is a bronze color. Not sure if that color is normal or it discolored because the exhaust gas temperature is higher due to the aftermarket can. This can is not excessively loud but the original muffler came with it so I am tempted to switch back anyway.
Thanks for your input in advance.
