Seems a bit ridiculous to be tuning a KLR, but then again, I ran mine at the Sturgis drags this year (which is also comical, but was fun)
We can tune anything. From 30hp KLRs to the world's baddest 660 HP turbo Hayabusa(check my most recent short).
He just wanted to make sure the tune was safe. He ain't trying to set any records with it. Lol

had a gen 1 and a gen 2 KLR..enjoyed both , these are not big horse power monsters..more tractor-ish... the power is down low in the rpm range 2-4k..with proper servicing these bikes will go many thousands of trouble free miles..
Yeah man... I could definitely see it being a fun bike. It's just not going to make the big gains that sport bikes will. And that's what everyone is used to seeing.
...unless you try to tweak them and make them into something they are not. Sort of like beating a good mule because it ain’t a stallion.
@@onerider808lol
Ive gone 101 mph on a flat stretch on my 22 fully stock
Down a mine shaft, ya!!!
I’ve done 85 (according to the speedo) going up a slight grade 🥴. That’s all she had.
honestly, those numbers are so close to stock that the money is not a good investment. that is at least $500 for the power commander. I personally don't see the point. spend that $500 on tires and heated grips or other useful mods.
On my 23 klr i couldn't get passed 85 with the bags on. As soon as i removed them she was going 90 +. Ill be removing the front faring and dropping it with an eagle mic. It's like a kite in the wind on the highway.
Yeah.... They're not race bikes for sure... But they look like they can be lots of fun.
As an owner of a KLR is nice to see a pig fly. If the cam's are like the older klr's free horses in the exahust cam. advance 1 tooth for 7.5 degrees. Eagle Mike and others worked on it is well documented on a klr forum. Did on my 04 was as much butt dyno gain as the 685 piston loosing 14% mass.
And theres no, and never has been the ability to do quickshifts or floating the gears on KLR's without causing damage. I noticed you did that every time, and didnt have yourself or someone else sit on the bike for that. Just kind of a bad practice.
@@alexmaccity what makes their transmission any different than all of the other transmissions in bikes?
Will it be too hard to crack the Ecu compared to sports bikes? Man, an ecu reflash would kill the market among Klr fellows.
Idk. We don't crack the ECUs. We just tune them. We use Woolich and they are the ones that crack them. Idk what you would have to do to get them to do it.
I've talked with Mr Brock himself on ECU reflash. Most are downloaded from a secret place and are only for the most commonly raced bikes. The klr and klx must go w power commander type mapping.
@@berttompkins9096 correct... There are multiple different companies that crack ECUs. Some do different ones that others don't. We use Woolich and they don't have these bikes cracked.
Just for posterity, that's not a baffle. It's a spark arrestor. Dirt bikes are fitted with them as well. They're used to prevent forest fires.
Who are u Smokey the fucking bear!... In the motorcycle world we call it a baffle in relation to sound.
Mr. landscaper
Alot of money spent for such little gain. Love mine. If you want big power etc then this isnt the bike for you. If he wants wheelies go to a 14 tooth front sprocket and it will stand up nice and long for him for about 20 bucks
Lots of people not only want more power, but they want proper AFR as well. That was his biggest concern.
The only thing cheap about a KLR is the owner 😆
Klr is a strange bike. Run like you stold it. These (slow bikes)are a blast to drive fast. Esp. On fire roads.
There's a method to the madness... They say "it's more fun to ride a slow bike fast, instead of a fast bike slow."
I agree with that some, and sometimes I don't though. On the way to the twisties, the slow bike sucks. 😂
Good video, thanks for sharing!
I went with the JD tuner on my 2022 KLR and have been very happy with it so far. Not to mention it’s about 1/2 the cost of the power commander 6.
In combination with the airbox mod, Leo Vince slip-on, and tuner, she pulls much harder than in stock form.
Every little helps when riding a slooooow KLR!
Yessir.... The gains definitely aren't huge. But based on a percentage of where we began to where we ended, it was big gains. 3hp gains on a 1000hp car isn't anything worth it. That same gain on a 30hp bike is way more.
You should be able to get 39hp out of it. 6hp increase, not just 3hp. 15% increase in both power+torque. You need the snorkel delete, and high performance air filter (uni) and exhaust. Then Dyno tune. The JD part has a built in accelerator pump. Interesting video. Everything seems to have been done right. Was there nothing more that could've been done? 😊
What's the secret to all the latest 450cc engines performing similarly to the KLR? Well, it seems he enjoyed it if the wheelie was any clue 👍 I wish the result chart was easier to see and study.
Find a 2nd gen head pipe and heat shield. Weld a nut that matches o2 sensor. Drill it and use the 02. It will amaze you. The header coppergasket and the rear muffler pipes all match. Kawi welded that small header pipe into the same size ends. I'm a tetired master tech and enjoy finding cheap horsepower.. Pure brappp.
Pretty sure that's just a spark arrest or not a DB killer.
It would have been nice to see the dyno figures in the stock condition. It's likely that the figures would have been not too far behind the final figures. That was a lot of money that the guy spent on maybe a two HP and two ft lbs gain, in addition to being loud and obnoxious. Additionally, his fuel mileage probably took a hit. But, to each his own.
I can only tune what they bring me. Lol
What surprised me is, There is a video from Cycle News, they run a dyno on it and it had also 36HP stock.
Bonjour est-ce possible de partager la Map de tuning pour le klR, j’en possède un et j’ai un Power commander 6 merci
Wheres your air flow? Thats probabaly why its running "rich" no fans to represent real world.
@@alexmaccity I've tuned plenty of race bikes and street bikes. I assure you it's good. And Ram Air doesn't do much of anything below 100 and doesn't make boost until 150. And this bike doesn't have ram air so that wouldn't matter either.
Still want to simulate that air flow you would have down the road. Send it to gale banks, and see what he says.
@@alexmaccity okay... 🤷🏻♂️
I cant wait for my teamrighteous tune!
I just bought my 3rd KLR, all 3 were slow
Thanks for a very informative video. I’ll be contacting you regarding sending you a Power Commander to set up.
@@BaileysDad369 reach out to me on Instagram @TEAMWRIGHTEOUS... I can do it for you.
So if I get a power commander is it pretty much plug and play? Do I need a dyno or can I just go by what you did? Feel like I wanna compensate you for something. Do you time harley twin cam 88's? Are ya close to the mid Atlantic?
I actually don't work on bikes anymore as I closed 57 Motorsports... That being said, I just had someone ship me their power commander the other day and I flashed this tune in it for them. I can do the same for you... Email me at teamwrighteous.chad@gmail.com and I can get you taken care of.
Mine sounds like a machine gun going from WOT to closed that fast. *Popopopopopop*
@@alexmaccity that's the pair valve putting fresh air into the exhaust.
What are ya’ll doing to the SRAD?
What's the price to reflas the ECU on a 2022 kawasaki KLR 650?
We aren't able to flash the ecu on these. This was tuned with a power commander
A slip on with the KLR is a full exhaust, as the cat is in the standard muffler. The stock header is pretty good, not really worth spending the money to replace.
thank you. from stock to seeing you with the add-ons, about how much did the owner spend?
Not sure... If I had to guess, around $1500 or so.
We never called it tractor power, we just said it was more power to the ground, or a ground pounder! When you got behind a XR 650 they would uproot the ground and throw it at you!
I could not ride this bike with the exhaust like that. The noise would kill me in long rides.
Tuning is over my head but I have this exact bike and I'm curious to know why the ecu can't be tuned.
I'm not sure if it can or can't be. We just can't. Our tuning software company doesn't have an offering for this model bike. They generally focus on the most popular bikes.
That makes sense. "The factory has to have their secrets blah blah blah" somebody in the old world hafta unlock these ecu's please for the love of all things!!!!!!!! I just want a lot that wills cheep the tires at a.stop light because AMERICA!
OK I'm selling my 22KLR, that was pretty sad. LOL
Lol... I mean, they're not race bikes. 😂😂
@@chadkline4268 watch again, I literally overlaid the graphs. Also, I'm very well qualified... We tune everything from stock bikes, NA all motor builds on gas, ethanol, methanol or nitromethane, extreme nitrous and turbo builds. This is a very easy tune for us. The customer mainly wanted to make sure the AFR was dialed in where it needed to be.
@@TEAMWRIGHTEOUSthanks, I am viewing again. We can't see the graph well. Can't see the units or numbers. Yes, I am learning. I learned that you are using Woolich, and that is a corporation that supplies the programming software, so they may learn more in the future, and flashing may improve, it seems. He got a 10% improvement at least, so that is pretty good. It's noticeable.
I own a 2023 klr 650 adventure ABS with 2700 miles on it. I actually have a question. Is it worth getting the power commander for the KLR? What does it do for someone who just loves the ride on the bike? I'm not racing the KLR. I ride with my wife when she feels up to it and we are stretching out our riding distances each time. Will the power commander have a benefit if i'm riding with my wife too?
It made some gains over stock, but as do rather it's worth doing is up to you and your budget. You've got to buy it, and then pay to have it dyno tuned or hope the stuff you can get from Dynojet is close enough.
@@TEAMWRIGHTEOUS I don't feel the purchase and the minimal gains are worth the cost. Researched the cost for the dyno shop willing to install it and it was not worth it. ,, thank you for your response.
@@5caretta yeah... He definitely got some gains with this one. But, it wasn't hurting anything not having it.
@@TEAMWRIGHTEOUS I understand there are gains but I'm not going to modify the bike unless the engine blows. Then its getting a big bore kit and all the trimmings to utilize it fully and maybe then the power Commander purchase mixed in with the kit since i will already be spending big money. Again thank you.
@@5caretta if you ever get a power commander for this bike, it's the easiest one ever to hookup. It just plugs in between the main harness and the ecu. Super simple.
Not like the older GSXRs where you had to connect all 4 injectors.
There's way too much going on with the new KLRs. Can't beat the 1st gen.
Exactly, no more performance than the big old carburettor ! Which you can tinker with your self & it uses gravity instead of a fuel pump - how reliable is that !!
Bosslady
She was doing a great job. I've got to re-glue my camera to the tripod. It came off again. Lol
Where are you located
Damn seems like the h.d pan america should be 8grand and the kawi klr650 here 20grand if anything
Harley's are always priced higher than their competitors, but it's definitely got way more power than these bikes.
Oh yes, 35hp and mushy suspension vs 150hp and adaptive suspension should actually be the same price.🤣
Would like to have seen a bone stock KLR dyno results comparison. I sold my 2022 Kawasaki z900rs cafe to get my 2023 KLR S.😮 It's not about the speed and power for me anymore.
Yeah, if he would've brought it to me first to do that, we would've. We just tune what people bring up us.
We soon will have a video with a brand new Z900RS that was bone stock. Then the customer did a cat delete and put it back on the dyno to have it tuned.
why? I have both a 22 klr and a 20 z900 street fighter style bike. the z900 are amazing bikes. super fun and hella reliable.. Your going to miss that z900..cant imagine giving up mine
$3,000 for 3hp and 1ftlb. 😅
Where did you come up with $3k from?
If you want to wheelie and ride on the streets, get the Honda XR650L. The XR wheelies great, but it's more dirt oriented and on the streets it's no comparison to the mighty KLR. Although the previous models with the carbs, seem to be easier to modify, with the right jetting or a 42mm carb and the right pipe, seems like they wheelie better and have more grunt. Also, I've heard that the new KLR's have a narrower header pipe and possibly you can use one from the earlier models, but you have to drill a hole and weld on a nut for the O2 sensor. Either way I don't have any desire to wheelie my new KLR, you only damage the front end from all the pounding and it's 460=480 lbs, which is not good when you finally bust your butt. Bad idea!
Yeah, I'm not wheelie rider at all, so idk anything about that stuff. Lol. I can set a bike up and make it do it... But I won't be participating 😂😂
Dude quit talking and start tuning.
Crazy this bike is only 8grand man, that new h.d pan am is 20grand, if I was bill gates I'd still have the kawi! H.d has never, could ever compete with jap bikes in any class,
I got my 2022 for 5,300$ not 8k
@@dakotawilly6621 I picked mine up for $5,100.00 used with 3K miles and lots of upgrades.
I just picked up the exact bike in the video with the hard bags for 6 grand with 305 miles on it.
