I'm sure it will work fine, but.. Along with a map made specifically for your bike you will gain more.

It comes with a wide band 02 sensor so you will not need to get it tuned. All you have to do is set the AFR you would like it to run at any RPM and gear. It will adjust it to the set AFR no matter the humidity, elevation, temp, ext. Think of it as a map that consistently changes on the fly. A shop might be able to squeeze an extra pony or two out of it by adjusting the AFR for every 200 RPMs and gear, but it won't be worth it unless you're racing IMO. I'm planning to add an 02 bung to my exhaust for the autotune feature and don't plan on paying for a tune this spring.

If I remember correctly it should be around 13 or 14 to 1.

14.7 to 1 to be exact is a stoichiometric mixture anything less is rich anything more is lean.

stoichiometric does not mean the most power. Stoichiometric does not mean best power or gas mileage.  Stoichiometric is what is considered to be the lowest harmful emissions.

It depends on how much gas mileage you want vs how much power you want.

Max power is usually achieved around 12.6:1 A:F ratio.
