I agree with that comment about it being unlikely to burn a piston or a valve when you are not using full throttle. That is the reason my main jets are always slightly too rich.  I run as lean as I can everywhere except at full throttle. With 6D Mikuni needles, I feed the throttle on, as I would do with a two stroke.  Full throttle is reached when I am well into the straights.  So getting maximum power there is not so important. Getting maximum acceleration does not depend on using full throttle - it is a balancing act.  If the fast guys are going to pass, they need to do it at the ends of the straights, as they approach the next corner, and most of them have plenty of go there anyway.
