[ST] update on low mileage, rough running

In case you missed it my '00 ST suddenly began burning
a lot of fuel and slowly began running rough and
surging a lot at low speeds. Had it checked and found
the CO level around 7% (should be 3%) My mechanic had
trouble getting the CO level to hold steady and after
two seperate trys the mileage is up to a steady 42 mpg
(up from a steady 35 mpg). We've been waiting for the
tech from triumph to come back from vacation to get
some input as to how to proceed.
Today I called the mechanic and it has been suggested
that he regress back to tune #8. I had been running
#9 until the first attempt to re-set the CO level when
they loaded #10. Triumph emailed the older tune to my
mechanic today and I will head over tomorrow morning
to give it a try.
I guess they have seen other bikes not responding well
to the newer tunes and this treatment has been
successful.
I will of course report back after I have run through
a tank of gas with the new (old) tune.
