Been on the dyno Don't want this to turn into a max power type hype thread but just had the 998r on the dyno. 127 at the back wheel. Hopefully some more to come (back) when a poorly chosen mod by the previous owner gets junked. Wasn't sad enough to video it, maybe next time.:o Ray |
go on then what was the mod?????? |

Anything to do with airfilters? |
Felix, You guessed it. I don't want to upset any particular fan clubs but lets just say that the filters are going back into the air tubes. (pipercross) Bizzarrely the thing was running very lean up to half revs then a little lean from there on up. You would think that any problem with a lack of airflow would cause it to run rich? Maybe Junking the mesh on the air intakes has leaned things off but I would have thought that removing an obvious restriction in the intake was a good thing IF you can keep the fueling right. I don't think there is a lot to be done to adjust the fueling with the OEM open pipe ECU. Maybe a power commander to richen things up is needed? Looks likes its Bye bye to 50 plus MPG in cruise mode??:lol: Ray |
Ahh, what you need is a map switch on the handlebars, so you can select your 50 MPG cruise mode or full power, low MPG mode. Suits you, sir. ;) Seriously, though, have a read here |
Felix, Interesting, I had been aware that FIM had been working on this. To start with I am going to try and make the best of what I have as it were. Its maybe an option to follow up if I can't get the fueling somewhere near. The facility to fuel map front and rear cylinders independently might be vital 'cos my bike is lot leaner of the front cylinder at the moment. Who is my "local" FIM dealer who would be able to map this up to suit? presumably they need a dyno? or at least the use of one. maybe an F02 is gonna be a cheaper option??:o:lol: Ray |
Yes, yes, I know I still owe you an answer on the F02 question! Cheeky sod! :lol: Have you spoken to John Hackett? I am sure he'd be able to sort it out. Pro-Twins I believe are the official importer, but Neil Spalding is pretty handy with FIM stuff, or so I am told. Much more locally, I am sure Nelly has nowt to do and would be happy to try his dab hand at something new.;) Or, how about Paul Kalatowich (sp?) of Ducati Technical Services in Wakefield. I know he's got a dyno. |
I can vouch for Neil Spalding - I have FIM chips in my 996 and my monster both done by him. |
Felix, Thanks, I'll let you know how I get on in a week or two after another dyno run. Ray. |
Whose dyno are you using? |
