portable Wideband Air/Fuel gauge?
« on: February 25, 2019, 11:55:28 AM »
I thought about making a portable wide band AF gauge to aide in bike tuning. Wondering if anyone here has ever made a portable one with success.

I saw a youtube video where someone made one.

I also found this:

If anyone has tried it, I would like to hear your results.

 I had contingency to spend from car racing. I got one of these for my bikes, it's still in the box. This one records to a data logger, other ones are a little cheaper.

Some members have done it with differing brands and set-ups.
Some info here:

Best case is being able to use it on the road under actual load conditions, as the ratio changes with rpm and throttle position.

Thanks for the info!
Found this this morning. It seems like a great, simple setup.
