Kawasaki Z900 Dyno | Rapid Bike EVO | SC Project
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- Today finally got the 2017 Z900 on the dyno.
HP - 112.06
Tq Ft/lbs - 63.2
Adjusted for correction
HP - 130
Tq fr/lbs - 72.5
This is with running rapid bikes EVO tuning solution, arrow racing headers, and sc project exhaust.
Adding air filter soon.
Main things that made a HUGE improvement and should help get more power than the posted numbers was:
Blocking air injection
And correcting Rapid bikes bad instructions for the TPS wire tap, which caused it to read 100% throttle signal at all times
Scary Dyno test, glad is not my bike 😂 ! Wow... never seen someone dyno that bad! Good vid! thanks!
lol
Yeah I was thinking the same thing
Seriously
@@justingrimberg90 me three
Nothing wrong with the way it was tuned. It's an Eddy current Dyno they sound like torturing the engine but it's the way to go. And the tuner was tuning throttle opening percentages
wow operator has no idea what he is doing
Go kawasaki, I love my z1000. Dyno 145hp with tune, filter, full akrapovic header and exhaust. A good tune on a bike makes a big difference.
Jeff Brown it really does!!
Nice, thumbs up for getting it dyno'ed with custom map, thats the propper way to do this.
I'm sure that it runs great. One thing for sure....it sounds SICK !!!
hello! Just got my bike and I can say that removing that rim tape makes one of the biggest aesthetic differences. Trust me! it will seem to chip at first, but eventually you will get it to bite and it will come off in long strips.
Cullen ohhh it looks good? I thought about it, but haven’t done it yet. Any pics?
It looks great without it. The tape makes the wheels appear to be skinny, but when taken off, it lets you see just how wide they are. I'm not sure how to attach pics, but it was the first thing I did when I got it home.
Did the same! Looks great
Hi also have a rapidbike evo on my ktm and am really happy with it. Im going to put in on the dyno soon to see if the A/F ratio it is aiming for on the autotune is correct. I was told sometimes you may have to tweak this to get it running even better. Did the figure it aiming for on the software correspond with the correct A/F reading from the dyno run??
Cheers
Sounds sweet
112 at the wheel? A stock z900 dynos at 115 at the wheel
It really depends on the Dyno you are using, temperature, atm etc...
On my z900 2019. 142Hp full acra system
@@randyschillemans5475 I smell bullshit
@@janssoninkiusaus996 142 crank x 0.88 (12% loss) = 124.96 whp. Makes sense to me.
@@exothermal.sprocket As i've owned and serviced a few of these bikes i know for sure that their rwhp is nowhere near 125hp, nor is the crank hp 142. by just looking at the flowcharts of the head you can already see that the engine can't benefit that much (~26%) with just a better flowing exhaust
Sorry but this dude has no idea how to run dyno!!
You're always sitting on the bike..look how the tire is slipping on a dyno drum
Trust me ... in our workplace, we have DYNOJET 250i
I just want to help
I agree this guy has no idea...
Hello Mate,
Need a quick info, do we need to make any changes to Dyno or do we need need a power Commander if we just change the muffler.
thx
Sunny
the bike is clearly strapped down at the foot pegs which puts load on the suspension just as if he was sitting on it. Maybe you can argue that he didn't strap it down enough, but you can't say you are required to sit on the bike, not on this setup at least . I would do the same, the bike is taken appart, why sit one someone's wiring harness or power commander and risk breaking the connectors.
Hey Bam. Quick question for you. I too have a 2017 Kawasaki z900 and I just recently received my SC-Project Exhaust S1 slip-on like yours in the mail and installed it. I plan on going to an exhaust shop and having a mid-pipe fabricated to removed the bread box and get some more sound of it. At some point I will do headers but for now this seems like a good solution. Any idea how much your header install cost or did you do it yourself? Thanks in advance! Also I highly recommend the OEM windscreen from Kawasaki. I got it and it makes the bike (in my opinion) look a lot more finished off at the top-front but it also really helps with the wind.
Michael, A lot of people are going the same exact route and just having a mid pipe fabricated. It's cheaper and gets you probably really close to benefit of full headers. Over on the Z900 forums I have a full write up of the install of the headers. I did do them myself, so I was just out the cost of the headers. It really was not that bad at all. Just need basic tools, really.
Bam Austian thanks for the fast reply. I do want headers eventually but for now I'll stick to what I would rather put the money towards. Thanks Bam.

Does the bike run hot during. city or traffic rides?
Keith Spradling hey man! Not at all. I mean any air cooled bike will get warm in traffic but it is perfectly normal and doesn't feel overly hot or anything. I honestly love the bike.
My r1 gets how as hell. Solded
Where did you take your bike to so I know NOT to take it there for tuning? Yikes!
Hi Austian,
Watching your videos made me buy this bike and the exact same setup (header / exhaust / tuner). Had it tuned last week but now my engine light has come on. Did you ever see it happen on yours?
Pawandeep Singh great choice!!! I need to get up some new videos. However to answer. When I corrected the wiring from the tuner it did set off a check engine light. The shop knew it was due to the tuner and install and said after a few rides it will go off. Sure enough after couple days it went off and has not come back on since :)
hi pawan, im also getting rapid evo installed with the same exhaust. i have some questions. can you share me your number.
im from kerala, india
What is the correction for exactly? If the dyno read 112 to the wheels in SAE then that would be the power output. 15% addition would be crank hp correct? The shorty is probably not helping power either..
so you still have to dyno even with the rapid bike module? motovation told me it wasnt necessary to dyno with the module installed
MarvNoGood Motovation is correct you do not have to, I did this by choice just for fun.
@@BamAustian thanks so much, ive been getting so many mixed reviews on this. just read a post on reddit that says you dont have to as well so thanks for validating that as well.
Love the dyno videos. I have a dyno video to of my classic 1998 Suzuki gsxr 1100 on chanel. Im pleased with the numbers 💪
nice bro...
Nivel video man!! Hey could u please tell me the link of the mirrors? They are so cool I would like yo buy them. Thanks in advance

Bam Austian Thanks dude
Getting a z900 performance pack next month cant wait 😁
Hey Bam, ist dB eater in or out of dyno?
kawa beckz it is out..
Ok, thanks and good ride all times, greatings from east germany
I just got the result of my dyno on my 2017 z900 and it makes 132.5 adjusted HP & 79.4ft torque
And top speed ??
Kevin 1995 260km/h
@@jimthermitus7258 ok my z900 stock is top speed 260kmh
Kevin 1995 i never been beyond that personally myself
Hey what type of phone holder do you have on this bike
Hey there, I actually picked this up at MotoGP races last year at the CycleGear tent, but I found the link. www.cyclegear.com/accessories/techmount-techgripper
I know this an older video did you upgrade the o2 sensor as well?
I actually did not upgrade it.
If you only change the headers and slip on without ecu remapping is that good enough?
Dude AWESOME Vlog !!! please let me know the mileage you are getting on z900....eager to know...Cheers !! Keep Vloggin ;D ;) :) :))
Hello could you please tell me how much rev limiter is increased ? So far I know stock rev limitier is on 11k rpm, correct me if Im wrong..
After installing the full system exhaust fuel injection compulsory is it?
Hey frnd are u using full system SC exhaust or just the slip on.
How much does it cost
Ride by Wire I have a local shop that is the US dealer for SC project so I’m able to shop in person. I think MSRP is $600usd.. but it is full system. The headers I think were $550.
Bam Austian SC sound amazing. And nice video 👍
If you by-pass the catalytic converters here Ca, be prepared to fail annual inspections. It’s getting ridiculous even for bikes now. So MY question is will a slip on alone make any positive results? Now that will be a great vid. I have a deposit on the green ‘cafe’ model, but still no delivery date... thx guys.. awesome vids
ProfabDesigns Inc. Luckily for me Texas is safety, no emissions. The cafe is going to be sweet!!! I got my dealer to loop me in as soon as they have a date for delivery. I would say for the cafe... a slip on will prop have tad deeper sound and look different. That’s prob it. The cat/bread box on these bikes is huge and suppresses the sound greatly
do you still need it dyno tuned if you have the rapid bike evo auto tuner? i just bought one and was told they are not any good
Driss Green no you don’t have to put it on a Dyno. I did just to see how it works and get some numbers. I had the same told to me. Seems very 50/50 on rapid bike if people like them or not. The ones that told me they are no good had no real information as to why. So I didn’t worry about it
thanx bam!
Thanks bam!!!! I think its also dyno shops spreading it around, understandably not wanting to go out of business.
your chain looks really loose.
What phone mount are you using?
Corey Picciuto I got it at a tent event. Didn’t pay this for it, so you can probably find it cheaper elsewhere, but this is the one I have www.cyclegear.com/accessories/techmount-techgripper-handlebar-mount-kit
Thanks! I was nervous about using my ram on the z900 because it doesnt have a windscreen.
Corey Picciuto I was at first also. But it holds up to everything I have put it through.
hey, stock say 125 hp. how many really?
bam!
Did u find out?
Question.. why does the rpms increase then go flatline dead?? Don't rpms usually increase until it redlines then bounce off the limiter? Or is this due to the tune. Not trying to be rude in any way just Curious Bam.
AZ-MOTO I had the same question. He just set a parameter to stop bike at peak RPM and not hit limit and bounce... haha not sure if that’s the right term, but I was curious as I had never experienced it like this :)
Aaahhh.. A pre-set rpm for peak power. Right?
hi Bam,
can you send me the rapid evo module map for your Z900. i have the same setup with DNA Air Filter installed, arrow headers and sc project s1 exhaust
Why is he standing up?!?
Hey, i’m looking for mirror for my z900 what is the brand of yours ? Thx
What cell phone mount are you using?
Which line exactly did he cap?
Chris Callan I will try to get quick vid. But under the tank on the right side of the bike there is hose. It sits right above the valve cover. We pulled it off the intake side and capped then put hose over cap. Didn’t even have to remove the tank!
Bam Austian thanks. I plan on getting the same bike in a couple months just trying to learn as much as I can. Badass bike btw man
Chris Callan you will enjoy it. Best bang for your buck type of bike! Also we pulled up file on the Dyno and it put down higher numbers than the Z1000 he had dyno’d
Bam Austian that’s awesome. I’m jumping from a 17 Z650 so it should be plenty bike for a while. Awesome videos man. Keep it up
Chris Callan that is a great bike!! Those engines have been good for Kawasaki, you will have a blast!
how about the gas consumption, is that any big difference in mileage after installing rapid bike evo?
I have not noticed much a difference in conservative riding. However under aggressive riding she does seem to drink faster, have not really tried to figure out what mileage she is getting.
Bam Austian oh okay, thanks alot for the video and information. ride save bro 👍
No air/fuel ratio?
I'm assuming they where using the rapid auto tune. He said it's a slow learner so think they were just letting it work it out.Still would have wanted to see the AFR on the dyno.
Bam Austin is one of the first to modify his bike this extensively as they are new to the market and he has nice results. I own one as well and would be afraid to touch it because the fueling is so smooth on this bike and I value that over more power. But by his results it looks like it's still smooth throttle plus he has more power, so that's a win.
Check out Moore Mafia if you want to see a proper dyno.
It's slip on exhaust
Who tf does a dyno like that? Fucking hell mate
Jajajajajajja crazy jajajajaj
That dyno operator does NOT KNOW anything about how to dyno a motorcycle.
Damn he doesn’t even know how to remap a bike smh
