Good to see you showed all the relevant operations re disassembly too. Clear and concise thanks.
Another cool vid mate, sticking around from the fxbb days for the quality content 🙌
Thanks for sticking with the channel mate, appreciate the support 🙌
Nice job. I’ve been following you since the Street Bob. Got good points on the air filter mod for my 2020 Softail Standard. I still have it and a 2004 FZ1. I like the MT-10, too. It’s grandfather, the FZ1 is still running great. You have good taste in bikes.
Cheers John, I've since sold the mt10 and bought a sportster 72.
Mate you make it look easy,I'm afraid my abilities don't extend that far to do those mods, but kudos to you, well done .
Cheers mate, trust me its not too tricky, you just need to be patient and take your time with it.
Nice vid man! As an owner myself looking forward to seeing the dyno results when lockdown allows 👍
Thanks mate, yeah didn't anticpate lockdown lasting this long, looks like ill be waiting a few more months before I can get it tuned.
Nice my next project on my 2021 mt10 ty
Great job I like man who knows what he’s doing..👍👍👍
Cheers mate 🙌
Nice set up. I basically have the same deal but with the Leovince mid pipe.
Thanks mate, I would prefer the leovince mid pipe but this was a tad cheaper.
What codes does it throw at you when you disconnect the servomotor, catalytic converter and cables?
me as a german watching this and thinking about the way that things like this are illegal in germany xD but i really like your video
Very nice and informative video man. Did you emptied the fuel tank before removing it?
Thanks mate, and no I still had half a tank of fuel.
👍🍻
hi bro,can you give me the link to buy the smog block off plate and debug connector like yours? and can this block off mount for r1 2015-2019?
i would appreciate if you help 😊!!!
Thank you very much🙏!!!
nice video! can you show us the dyno chart if available to see the gains? thanks!
Will definitely do a vid and show the dyno numbers as soon as lockdown ends when I get the tune done 👍
@@TheGingybeardMan thank you so much!
Great video. Have you still got your Harley.?
I had to sell the Harley for funds to start building our new home.
Be careful using a K&N filter, they allow everything smaller than a mid-size chicken into your intake increasing wear. I'd go with a Sprint (not the see through one) or a DNA filter as they are within 3/4 of one HP but much more protection.
Hey man, what is the use of the smog block plates? Does the exhaust pop more or anything like that? And if I understud correctly, the exhaust servo wont give you an engine fault if you just plug the wiring back in right?
That's correct mate the fault code wont come up if you plug in the exhaust servo wiring. The exhaust does pop more with the decat but once you get it tuned to suit the popping wnt be as apparent. Smog block of plates are designed to seal off the ports used by the air injection system. the air injection system is used to burn off emissions and makes the bike harder to tune without blocking them off. There's much more information on Google on the use of smog block off plates.
What does a smog block off plate do? I’ve never heard of that before.
Here is a good explanation of what they do.
-To get an accurate Air:Fuel (A/F) ratio when dynoing the bike. The air injection system pumps fresh air directly into the exhaust stream in order to burn off any unused fuel. Unfortunately by doing this the A/F ratio is thrown off by the extra "fresh air" in the exhaust stream. By removing the air injection system you can achieve an accurate A/F ratio.
-This addition will typically remove the majority of popping on deceleration that can be experienced with un-burnt gasses within the emission charcoal chamber. Note: Proper tuning may be needed and this is general feedback.
-Greatly reduces popping on deceleration.
you have removed the lambda probes. what have you put in order not to turn on the engine light ?? Thank you
The 02 sensor error codes will be removed when the bike is flashed tuned.
Does it require gaskets where it slips on the headers? (like the stock cat does?)
I just used high heat pipe sealant. Didn't come with gaskets
Did you block off the air injection breather hole on the air box?
Yes sir, a plug was provided with the kit
Do you reckon this link pipe will work on a 2022 Mark 2 MT10?
I'm not 100% sure mate, I just did a quick google search and many mid pipes state they for from 2015 to 2022 so can't see why it wouldn't
What was the horse power gained post the tune?
I did a review video on the dyno on my channel 👍
Which site did you order the mid pipe from?
Just off ebay mate
Hey man, I know it's been two years but I bought the exact same exhaust setup for my 2020 mt-10 and the black widow mid pipe is too long at the Akrapovic muffler. There's a little ring inside it that stops the mounting holes from lining up about an inch short. Any suggestions? Looks like yours fit perfectly!
I ended up cutting some of the black widow pipe down.
Didn't want to show that in the video? Bummed I have to cut it now. @@TheGingybeardMan
Did you use a dremel or angle grinder?@@TheGingybeardMan
@@Filmingtherush You can use anything that'll cut steel, Grinder, hacksaw, dremel. I used a bansaw.
How’s the wind on this monster? Is it manageable at roughly 190-210?
I'd never been that quick on the bike brother.
@@TheGingybeardMan Im sure he meant KpH not MPH so 190kph is not even 120mph
@@dougiequick1 sure hope he didnt mean mph. I'd never been even 190 kilometres per hour on the bike either mate. I didn't get to do track days. Our speed limits are 100kms so I didn't double the speed limit on public roads bro
Make sure you get that ECU flashed, Installing the air filter and decat to a stock back, you LOSE 10hp until you get it tuned.
Yes sir I explained in the vid the importance of getting it tuned. I had it dyno tuned shortly after this vid.
@@TheGingybeardMan Cool. What was it putting down? With a slip-on, filter and proper flash they seem to be landing in the 148-150 range...
@@SquireSCA the dyno said without the tune it was making 142hp and with the tune it was making 151hp. I did a vid showing the dyno chart 👍
😁
at 6:55 why did you dont open up the air box . snorket out and cut a big holes in that restricted air box
What was the smog delete I seen in the video called ?
They're called smog block off plates. They replace the air injection system by blocking it off.
Here is a good explanation of what they do.

Hi mate, do you know if the black widow is the loudest decat pipe? Thanks
Sure is mate, its a straight through pipe, you can't get any louder
@@TheGingybeardMan Looks like i'll be getting this then, cheers!
The constriction below the filter limits the power. remove it. After this treatment, you need to flash your computer because the AFR is high, the engine will be damaged.
originial better than decat - for ME!
this midpipe look like it will get bad airflow when they join into 1 pipe .
I disagree, this mid pipe is way less restrictive than the stock catalytic converter.
A lot of work at the end of the day for what gain?? Mabye just buy an R1
Don't understand the relevance of this comment. The r1 has the same restrictions from factory and isn't as suited as a daily commuter.
I'm going to sell my street Bob and pick up an mt10
K&N filter.... Less HP on the dyno .. Blank off plates pointless just get the AIS turned off.
I disagree. The K&N air filter provides more air flow than stock thus better performance which is proven in the video below on a dyno
ua-cam.com/video/WixTvlFvOlA/v-deo.html
Also its recommended that you install smog block off plates even if AIS is disabled on your flash. There is still oxygen that can get through the AIS if BOP's aren't installed.
But you do you buddy 👍
