Latest UOA from my 2013 Sportster XL1200C (Stock engine)
The copper jumped again.
Has been high since the original 1000 mile service, but never this high.
My other UOAs are posted here also- 2013 Sportster 1000-35000 UOAs
I did do more running at higher throttle openings and higher rpms during this OCI.
Been tuning the 40-100 TPS VE values.
Still not sure if the copper is from the cam bushings or somewhere else (piston pin bushing, con rod bearing cage or valve guides)
Might have to tear it down this winter to find out.
The Fram Ultra didn't do too well based on the particle count.

My other UOAs are posted here also- 2013 Sportster 1000-35000 UOAs
I did do more running at higher throttle openings and higher rpms during this OCI.
Been tuning the 40-100 TPS VE values.
Still not sure if the copper is from the cam bushings or somewhere else (piston pin bushing, con rod bearing cage or valve guides)
Might have to tear it down this winter to find out.
