To be legit with you, I have couple of the graphs but I don't really know what it means, they explained it to me but ehhhhhhhh.What sort of dyno results did you get back from the dyno day? :O
Hey, It's called the Kriega harness pocketHello... i see you have a black tool bag on the side of the bike. Where did you buy that bag?![]()
Hey, thanks for reading. For real, I have had some mods done to this bike, nothing crazy, but a fair bit. I would put the throttle mod on the same level as the exhaust swap, going from the stock with baffles in vs akra pipe with no baffles. that's the level of difference. It's incredible.Hey RJ, youve had me contemplatig the throttle mod since your post. Just need to see if i can unstick the delaer cement heated grips without damaging them.
Any reason for power commander over ecu flash? Did you contemplate an airfilter?
Cool, definitely not doing much to disuade me. Never got to ride xsr with stock pipe. Have it boxed in the attic. Baffles are still in the akra ti but am thinking drill them out, swap filter/snorkel and tune with the throttle mod.Hey, thanks for reading.

I didn't have a ECU tuner near me, so I bit the bullet a bit and went for the PCV. I could've gone for the ECU, since I most likely won't change anything on the bike for a while involving air intake etc. I wanted the DNA filter, but my guys down at HM racing told me that KN filters were better, so I went with that.
As for grips, I think it'll depend on whether the heated elements are on the throttle tube, or if it's on the grip. If it's the latter, then you can swap the sleeve over, as the R6 throttle sleeve will come off as well. But if it's directly on the throttle tube itself, then it requires more skills than I can advise on...
Heading to dealer tomorrow so will see what they can do. PCV seems a big investment. But I guess a bit like the suspension mod, pricey but no doubt worth it.
Interesting re KnN, was thinking KnN just because but saw this and leaning dna for the snorkel.

As for grips, had a look and think its cemented to throttle tube, see your point re grip may be seperate from heating element. At risk/cost of ruining grips not sure im keen to find out. Will attempt a cautious removal from tube in a week or two.
Funny enough, I watched that same vid before going for the DNA, but the garage literally said KN is cheaper and the discrepancy between DNA and KN is not something I'm going to notice at my riding skill and the kind of bike I ride.Cool, definitely not doing much to disuade me.

I am also thinking about the suspension upgrade in the not too distant future, but I opted for the PCV literally because it's transferable to the next bike, should that ever become a thing for me. There are all kinds of crazy stuff, like auto tune with a dual channel O2 optimising sensor drilled in the exhaust so it can sort **** out mid ride etc, but that again is beyond my riding level and expectations.
If you have a garage near you that can do the ECU, just buy the filter of your choice, take the baffles out (not sure if that affects airflow), and then get it ECU'd and save some cash
I've done my homework before embarking on this, and I was not able to DIY it because the cable throttle was already at the loosest it would go, aka the nut was already at the loosest end, so that fix did not work for me. Had to go to the garage to get the cables slacked underneath the tank, which is above my paygrade as an amateur tinkerer.After reading your thread It got me interested in this mod. I used to have an R6 and did prefer the throttle response. I'm going to give it a go soon and found this thread on an American MT forum for the mod. It gives some good info on how to do it for anyone who isn't very confident in messing with bikes! https://fz07.org/thread/828/installing-r6-throttle-tube
Wow, where do you live? £120 for labour + tune? the PCV set me back about £380, the labour about 80, and the custom map 180... It's definitely worth it though so start PINCHING THOSE PENNIESInteresting, am yet to check out price difference. Did you mod the intake or just remove stock?
Is true, like dna v knN and at this point (1200 miles of experience) am not sure if id note any gain with suspension but still enticing. Spoke to dealer, they want £120 for 2 hours labour to fit PC and dyno tune. They dont do ecu flash. Had thought flash was significantly cheaper and a common thing but a quick google and compared to pc and option to carry pc to next bike perhaps not.
Strange as pretty sure Fathers indian flash was free with service. (I blame him for suggesting a filter mod)
So guess a touch trickier than a £50 filter due to tuning requirements...should have either gone 900 or best start saving.
...all that said, next step is get that throttle unglued![]()
