Its the traction control kicking in when the front wheel lifts, as the back wheel is spinning faster thats why its very wheelie happy with it's turned down, same on my bike. It probably hasn''t got wheeliecontrol (not checked it though). Take care, Cheers.

      But theres a proper ECU map required from the supplier that carries out the work for you, an flash unlocks the ECU but and new map is what gives you the big difference in engine characteristics and output power :) I had great help from msg racing in the uk. They also updated my tc map with their own one which has been a great upgrade for track riding.

    Absolutely love the bike! Aside from that as far as traction control and anti wheelie together is inevitable. See essentially when or if your back wheel spins or (breaks traction) it will cut power I'm ecu n shut it down enough till it grabs. Therefore having to essentially give the bike so much power it wheelies is a process of breaking traction grabbing and pulling up.how you said that it would wheelie on a lower setting is cause ecu is cutting less power. The traction not really effecting. If you didn't have traction you would just spin. The traction is what allows your bike to pull up instead of spinning. Just figured I would explain. But great vid, next purchase here soon as my fiance has took over my k5 600.

FREE! thats a $800 usd accessory but they did want to get it sold before the end of the year though... but i guess the only sad thing is that i am trading in my ninja 400 for the H2... but i just dont have the space or the money to take care of both... if i am ever in GB then you can expect me to be looking for you on those hyperspace highways! take care and ride safe.

    Did you record any footage of the suspension fitment at Nitron? Would love see the video if you did. And then the how it feels after review. Custom suspension to rider weight and riding application is the best money you can spend on any upgrade in my opinion but few people do it and opt for bling items instead.

    • @LambChopRides
      @LambChopRides  4 роки тому +1

      No unfortunately not as they took the bike for a week and fitted it. Of course they then setup sag etc when I collected it again. Made a huge difference having it setup and sprung for my weight. I would highly recommend it

      Absolutely agree Husky 701, first thing changed on my Honda CB1000R Neo Sport was rear shock to Nitron, night day difference. LCR review of the bike was enough to sway my decision to buy!

      Aye, you don’t buy a pair of jeans that fit from 28-42 inch waist and think, they’ll do. That’s what you are effectively doing by settling for OEM suspension that suits 9st-18st. For adjustable suspension, throw in a belt.

    Slightly off topic but how do you find the AX-8 on naked bikes? I've got an MT10 and love the looks of the AX-9 but not sure if a 'touring' helmet will get blown around in the wind compared to a sports helmet?

    • @LambChopRides

      Yes not as good as a sport bike helmet, Ive just gone for a Shoei Xspirt for using on the sports bikes as at speed its noisy.

      @@LambChopRides sorry mate didn't mean to be so vague. Basically there was a gearbox fault that took 3 months for Kawasaki to sort. There was a metal burr on the clutch push rod a manufacturing fault which caused the cluch to basically seize made it very difficult to pull the clutch in and disengage the gear. Kawa had to replace the input shaft and push rod which is a huge expense job because the whole h2 gearbox had to be stripped. My brothers dealer had to do it twice because they struggled to find the problem. All costs were covered by kawa it just took a long time for them to sort. All the info is on the kawa forum. Not an isolated case as another member had the same issue. Not trying to put the shiters up you mate. In both cases the fault developed at 3500 to 4000 miles

    Hugger looks good but come on!! held on with cable ties.Why the never utilised the 2x holes in the swingarm its just the designer being lazy .Agree on the cruise control it can help from having sore wrists .The torque with the vvt is great .I find the seat hard as hell and am looking for a gel seat but so far aint found one in the uk .So much better than my previous mt10 tractor .
