oh this looks great, and i heard all the clicks. I KNOW how hard it is to film something like this, good job... great looking video, great explanation...
Very nice and proff videos. I have my own dyno shop and make ecu flash almost every day. I have a tip for this ninja 400. If you set the ignition about 10 degrees erlyer in 50-100% trottle all the way from 3000rpm and up to red line, you will ad a lot off power to it.
@@testbaenken Wow! Do you think Kawi calibrated spark so retarded to accommodate bad fuel all around the world? What fuel do you suggest when adding so much advance?
I just did my ecu install last night but when I finally got the tank back on I have one female electrical socket left that is connected to the long cable that comes up to the tail, what cable is this that I forgot to connect? I can’t find it when I opened my bike back up
Hello, nice video, but i want to ask , does flashing the ecu gives the bike more speed/ power ? Like flashing the 2015 kawasaki er6n give it more speed / km range from stock maximum 210k to like 300km or more ?
I am not sure there is an aftermarket flash/tune available for that model. Also sounds like you are in Europe so I would suggest you reach out to a shop in Europe that performs ecu flashing. - Van
I will be building the motor over the winter looking to keep it Wera Superstock Legal. If this fits into the rules we will look into adding them for sure. - Van
Hi Brian, I have an issue with my ft ecu flash, i did everything right, but the bike wont run with any map other then the stock map, bikes start then shuts off and give me code 39, ecu comunication error, any idea what could be wrong ?
This is not something I can help over UA-cam comments. The best way to get this handled is to reach out to FTECU support and get them involved. I have worked with them when I had an issue with another bike and they got me sorted fast. - Van
I ordered the ftecu bench kit, that means I have to take the ECU out of the bike to flash it correct? I want to leave the ECU in and flash it, so what do I need to order?
With the bench tune kit you will need to remove the ecu and flash it off the bike. The bike side harness allows you to flash the ecu without removing it from the bike. For the bike side kit you will need to install the harness like we show you in this video. - Van
I have a 2020 Kawasaki Z400, would this process work for my bike? The only thing I have on is an aftermarket slip on exhaust an it makes my bike feel more aggressive. (Could just be the sound)
I put a chain and sprocket kit on my bike from nortons motorsports, I changed the front sprocket to a 13 and then it stopped showing my speed and what gear I was in. the next day I tried riding to work and it shut off on the freeway. starts up but sounds like clanking. I ordered a new camchain tensioner from graves motorsports hoping it will fix the issue.how can I adjust the gear ratio on the ecu
I do not believe you can flash the ecu to change the gear ratio. Any time you work on the bike then have a problem it is best to go back to what you just did and double check all of your work before you begin to diagnose the problem. - Van
I bought the bike side kit for my ninja 650.Do you know if the pin locations are the same for a 2018 ninja 650? It's the same type 4 ecu connector. Their website doesn't have installation instructions for the 2018 ninja 650.
This video just made FT another sale. Do they have different maps, say completely stock bike and stock with just a high flow air filter? Is the quickshifter jerky from 1st to 2nd. I have the annitori QS and it's real jerky from 1st to second, and going up it the gears it gets progressively better. Tried different kill times too.
Hey guys i just received my ecu tuner from you but cannot figure out how to get the documents to install....what code do i use to register the usb.....nothing works
@@sportbiketrackgear all good....i watched the video again and realized you have to actually plug the cord into the computer to register it. All good and the flash is now done 🙂
No this is the Armour Bodies Superbike Seat for the 400. It raises the seat height a bit and works better for the track. Here is a link to it on our site: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/armour-bodies-kawasaki-ninja-400-2018-pro-series-superbike-seat-base/ - Van
We do. Please add the items you are interested in to the cart along with your shipping details and the site will generate shipping quotes for you. - Van
I have a stock 2019 Ninja 400 that I ride around town. Would like it to be a bit faster. Would flashing my ECU make a noticeable difference?? What kind of performance could I expect afterwards without any aftermarket upgrades?
We did not dyno the bike after this install so it is hard to give an accurate answer. IMO if the motor is stock you can get excellent performance using fuel maps that are available at no charge. If you progress to building the motor you will then need to have the bike tuned on the dyno as we have now. - Van
Yes we are running the Woodcraft Kawasaki Ninja 400 18-19 Clip-on Riser Assembly w/ Bars on the bike. These do not interfeer with the bodywork and get you into a good position on the Ninja. Both my Son Max and I have ridden it with them installed and agree this is the way to go on the 400. Here is a link to them on our site: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/woodcraft-kawasaki-ninja-400-2018-clip-on-riser-assembly-w-bars/ - Van
Bah, they don't have one for my 2015 Ninja 650 😐. Looks like they don't support 2009-2017, I guess hundreds of thousands of potential customers should have bought a worse bike 😂😂😂
FTECU does not have coverage for all the models on the market. They only spend time on bikes they feel will sell enough to justify the development time. - Van
Total trash ECU flash software. Woolrich has 10x the tune-ability. Sorry I went with this BS version. Research your purchase! I am a confirmed FTECU customer.. totally not happy with my purchase after getting flashed with Woolrich. Wanted blockoff plate warning engine light fixed and o2 sensor engine light fixed, and was told you are out of luck unless you have the right motorcycle on our list. You sell a $400 product that you do not upgrade/fix? Says it all!
This is a model specific product. We have used it on several bikes now and had zero issues. Max's MotoAmerica bike uses this with the approved file and we have zero engine lights with outstanding performance. - Van

Brian, hi, can you do a video on how to remove the black box on the left side of the bike? the box is conected to the fuel tank.
I just did my ecu install last night but when I finally got the tank back on I have one female electrical socket left that is connected to the long cable that comes up to the tail, what cable is this that I forgot to connect? I can’t find it when I opened my bike back up
Without seeing the bike personally I will not be able to help much. Retrace your steps and I am sure you will find the issue. - Van

Please reach out to FTECU directly for support on this. - Van
Bro is the wiring harness reuseable in another bike??
I mean not fitting permanent in one bike??
Once you install this in the bike it stays with that bike. - Van
So let me get this straight I don’t have to send in my ecu I can do this on my own with this kit ?
You can 100% do this on your own. This kit allows you to flash the ecu with any files FTECU has in their database. - Van
Brian, when are you going to do a video on the ninja400r velocity stacks and a possible air box mod?
I will be building the motor over the winter looking to keep it Wera Superstock Legal. If this fits into the rules we will look into adding them for sure. - Van
ye na ye na ye na ye na
Do you like this setup more than running a PCV?
To be fair they both work. One advantage to the flash is the only additional part you need to quick shift is the shift sensor. - Van
Great review Brian how can I get one of them banners lime the icon one
That is an old banner that we have had for years now, it is no longer available. - Van

How can I remove this harness ? I installed it while doing my engine swap and my bike just cranks but gets no spark .
This harness should not cause a no start condition. I would double check your work after the install. - Van

If I unplug the positive terminal on tje battery of 2021 ninja 400 will it make the fule map relearn?
Or can I get a flashed ecu without sending my current on in
No that will not have any impact on the fuel mapping. - Van
You would need to purchase an FTECU flash kit for the bike to flash the ecu. - Van
@@sportbiketrackgear how do I lean how to do the flashing
Where can I get that obd2 deal that clears codes on ecu?

Hey Van why did you go for the m4 exhaust over the akra?
Pcv5 or flash tune?
Really depends on what you are doing. For racing we are now using the MotoAmerica approves FTECU flash with custom fuel mapping. - Van
