      Best options for this is if you fit an aftermarket exhaust system especially if you delete the CAT,then it like the mt09 can run lean as for emissions reasons they are already lean from factory,let the company know off all more so they can make the changes needed,the mt09 really benefits as it smoother out the jerky throttle and gives full power that is restricted on factory ECU.

    "EVERYTHING" is a pretty broad statement when you don't actually answer "every" question people may have. One of the biggest that you guys missed is will it void my warranty? A Harley tech says if they hook up your bike to their machines it will detect if something is out of spec and will auto-flag your ecu to their system that your powertrain is void. Most every other tuner says the manufacturer can't tell and it won't void your warranty.

    Hello I just bought a full akrapovic racing system exhaust and plan to put in my 2012 Yamaha r6.. I’m just wonder after install this Akrapovic exhaust in the bike do I have to get fuel tuning and ECU flash services for bike the to ride smooth n normal.. BC I reach out to people working from Revzilla and they said With Akrapovic full system exhaust doesn’t need fuel r ECU services.. and he was saying akrapovic build this exhaust system around the stock fueling of motorcycle which allow them to pickup power over stock unit.. please I love to hear from your advice

    • @wildwhiskeywolf
      @wildwhiskeywolf  4 роки тому +1

      YES. Anytime a part is installed that effects the air/fuel ratio of the bike, a tune is the best option to get maximum smoothness and power out of the bike. ECU flash will unlock all the factory restrictions, so that’s good to do before the tune.

    Hey i have a 17 r6. It had a recall on the ecu, due to the cold start issue. I had it dyno'd and flashed 3 years ago after i did the air filter and exaust. The cold start problem has become worse and worse and i brought it to my dyno guy and hes telling me he needs to take it to yamaha to be factory reset. Is this normal, he wont elaborate on why this needs to be done. Hes telling me he will get it factory reset and perform another dyno on it. Based on what ive said is this normal, have you heard of this before? And so you think its ok to still ride for a 4hr trip i need to take it on this week? Thanks!

      kristofer john oliveros you should flash your ecu whether or not you change your exhaust system if you want to unlock the full power of the bike. Bikes come restricted from the factory and the flash unlocks all the restrictions. When you change your exhaust you will want a FLASH as well as a dyno TUNE.

      I would recommend getting your ECU flashed locally that way you can go through all the specifics of the flash with the tuner. Flashes are different depending on what mods you have done to your bike and if you have emissions, o2 sensor etc
