Nate from 2WDW did one of these bikes and he was impressed at how restricted it was, and how the post-flash gains were unlike anything else he has seen before. It's literally a different bike afterwards.
Hey Chris! Got a ‘23 CB1000R Black and so stoked you got these dialed in!!! One question - are you able to turn off wheelie control without disabling TC? The wheelie control on this bike is THE WORST I’VE EVER SEEN. It literally lets you clutch the front wheel up, then completely cuts the power bringing the front wheel back like a ton of bricks. As is, we have to go into the settings every time we turn the bike on and disable TC completely to get rid of the wheelie control. It’s a pain in the ass. Don’t know what Honda was thinking not letting a 1000cc naked bike not wheelie 🤦🏼♂️
I own this bike. You can set your user mode to your preferred settings without t/c. Unfortunately, without turning traction control off completely, there's no way around it. Once the front wheel does 1 full revolution in the air, the bike recognizes this wheel is not spinning equivalent speed to the rear and shuts down production of power to remedy and regain control of the bike. So honda does let you wheelie but it is something you have to select on your own.
@@Smoke-ri1fx I’ve tried setting “user” mode to always have TC disabled, but it won’t let you. You have manually go in every time you turn the key off and it’s a pain in the ass. Honestly I love this bike but the TC and wheelie control are pretty useless for aggressive riding in good weather. I’m just going to physically delete all the ABS and traction control. Probably drop another 10lbs with all the extra lines, ABS pumps and electronics.
@smith8124 I came to CB world from the RC 51 world. Night and day difference with new tech controlling everything. I loved my Ducati killer. Seeking another low mile SP2 as we speak
@@Smoke-ri1fx I was working at a Honda dealership when the SP2 came out. Must have spent hours staring at that HRC Nicky Hayden edition haha. The tech on modern sport bikes, like the R1’s 6 axis IMU, is simply brilliant. But what the CB got is trash. Yes it’s nice to be able to adjust power modes and engine braking, and the clutch-less up and down shifter with blipper is insanely good, but the TC is bottom of the barrel without better sensors. I prefer it not be there at all. With a 190 Supercorsa out back and 140 wheel horsepower, it’s got plenty of leeway before it’s breaking the rear end loose
I would have to bet the Suzuki GSF1250 Bandit from 2007-2016 is the most restrictive motorcycle. Just taking out the secondary throttle blades, modifying the air box lid, full exhaust, timing retard eliminator and adding a fueler / tune increases power ~ 30% from ~ 100 hp to 130 hp.
Good day from South Africa, Chris I am following your channel and watch all your content. I have never seen you tune a KTM Superduke 1290 or a Triumph Speed Triple. Is there perhaps a reason for this Chris? I ride a 2019 Speed Triple 1050 RS and my wife has a 2018 KTM Superduke 1290 R. I think you would be able to create magic with these bikes if you would tune them.
big restrictions are good if they can be reversed fairly easy... you don't want em to come with big HP if they can be opened up easily for a few reasons 1. insurance, goes by CC which rates HP 2. overall cost from manufacturer 3. you can have a low HP model for a new rider that easily can be opened up later on as rider progresses 4. parts generally aren't as expensive 5. mpg so forth if you want it there are other reasons i'm sure but there's a few and for me insurance is a big one it can be significant specially if its not categorized as a full on "sportbike" Honder has always been the forerunner of the gentleman's agreement and takes it more seriously than the others,hale the 929's were restricted pretty good, the 954, as I remember ... sounds like a runner and I'd bet its a hoot to role out on . .
Hey, does doing this ECU flash make a bike run lean? I see a guy selling a cb1000r that has been ECU flashed but I'm curious about the fuel/air ratio and if it's running hot.... Feels like there's no way to verify this and that I might be taking a gamble on a bike that might have a shortened life span. Any insight into this?
@@HifeMan*You’re. Pretty sure he is, considering I’ve got a 23’ and mine were scrubbed to the edge before switching to Supercorsas. Ride whatever pace you’re comfortable at. Nobody here is making a living off their lap times.
@@dustin4434 not a big fan of putting a marble in a hose. I guess unplugging the sensor that activates the valve opening could work too. Rather do it the right way if spending the money to get it tuned. Graves does sell a pair of block off plates for the 06-08 CBR1000RR-R motor which is this actual motor for this bike, just detuned.
This is not even true. The reason they don't ship it from the factory they way your suggesting is simple. So it can be imported. There are many if not most countries that won't allowed the bike if it was tuned to what you can get from a fireblade engine. I use my CB1000R black for touring. And the power from the factory is adequate and no problem to keep up with traffic going 150kmh. Even the exhaust I've kept the same. I could change it, but I don't want to pay the NT39,000 fine
If the manufactures shipped unrestricted bikes Chris would be out of the tuning business.
Unless you modify the bike because it would run horrible without a tune
Nah you just do more mods then
EPA has ruined motorcycles
Not just that. But most countries won't allow the bike to be imported.

Cb1000 hornet 2025 👀
There has GOT to be more restrictions somewhere in this bike for that power. Maybe in the air box???
I would like to experience your full suite of ecu flashing products. Can you advise me?
gsxs950 is more restricted! Hope to see one on your channel one day ^^

big restrictions are good if they can be reversed fairly easy... you don't want em to come with big HP if they can be opened up easily for a few reasons
1. insurance, goes by CC which rates HP
2. overall cost from manufacturer
3. you can have a low HP model for a new rider that easily can be opened up later on as rider progresses
4. parts generally aren't as expensive
5. mpg so forth if you want it
there are other reasons i'm sure but there's a few and for me insurance is a big one it can be significant specially if its not categorized as a full on "sportbike" Honder has always been the forerunner of the gentleman's agreement and takes it more seriously than the others,hale the 929's were restricted pretty good, the 954, as I remember ... sounds like a runner and I'd bet its a hoot to role out on . .

Jesús 2 up in the front and 1 down in the back…. Nuetered that bike right off the bat
Not if you shift at 12k, old timer.
Would flashing over the throttle% map unleash more power?
Please add a real world test in every video like BT moto , test e 60-130,150 pull and measure the time in every video
I have the black edition. I want to send to my ecu. Whats they deets ?
I have a 2016 CB1000R, but they do not make any FULL EXHAUST for the bike, only decat / slip ons.
I had a 2017, same model Beowulf (UK) did make a full system (I had one fitted), MTC also in UK did make a system - might still do...?
@PCERules I really appreciate that. I will look into those brands, and hopefully, I can find one. 👍
Pricing for this is on there website
Huge gain 😮😮
Question is can he handle the sauce? 😂😂
Not with those chicken strips, he cant
@@cheeeseinacann No way your serious. lol

Any upcoming Giveaway bike project coming shortly ?
Wonder how a burble tune sounds on a rebel 1100
Which tyres were on that bike ?
Can i mail my ecu from eu?
Ha, everyone says it makes 143hp. Damn
How much thus the ecu flash cost?
$295.00 check there website
Does anyone make a PAIR block off kit for this bike? It would be great but I have not seen one yet.
If you watch the whole video he shows you how to block it why would you need a kit?
Every bike has a kit but it’s really not needed.

@@GMperformanceOWNER this bike actually does not have one specifically for it.
@@tima7662There is. SmartMoto makes one and I installed it on my CB without an issue.

Wish I could get my old 05 600rr tuned but with its age I don’t think it can be done
Anything can be tuned with a ECU
@@saramolet3614 I had put the info in on there website but said they didn’t offer services for that model bike.
Your videos are very boring from last couple of months. No exciting contents whatsoever.
The pop's and bang's suck ! And they are annoying the hell out of everyone ! Hopefully it will be outlawed soon .
yeah its some bull.
