That was a typo... I meant it was using 1/8th of the fuel to maintain the same idle speed. It's funny how adamant everyone is about saying this is not possible, it's perpetual motion, etc. when it's really just adding a second source of fuel. It's not free energy. Also, I understand BSFC, dyno charts, efficiency, etc. I Have a B.S. in Aerospace Propulsion.
As for the "I'm not saying it works, I'm saying it works"... Really, I guess I should say that I don't think it is practical or even possible on a large scale, but at least there is a little bit of energy there to work with on a very small scale.
The Triumph TT600 was the first fuel injected sportbike, so maybe the system was not as refined as the newer fuel injection types.
