PLEASE NOTE: You will have to get the ECU flashed at an approved Honda dealership alongside replacing the restricted air trumpets in order to get the full unrestricted power. I was able to get this done for only an hour's labour at my local dealership.
Thanks for the video. Do you think you could simply dremmel the old trumpets? Is the depth that big of a deal? The cost is about $160 for new trumpets... seems a lot for some shorter plastic.
@@motorheadxi that depends on what state/country you live in, what insurance company you are using and what honda dealership you are dealing with. When you sign up for insurance they ask questions like "is your motorcycle modified" which in this case it would be, it then comes down to the insurance company and the particualr policy if that is an issue. If the engine developed an issue and Honda was aware it was modified you can be certain the warranty would be void. Technically it is no longer a LAMS bike after the modification in Australia also as it is a power modification. Having said all that if you were sensible with the modification (i.e dont put a loud exhaust on it) then the average officer isnt going to know or care and its a Honda so the engine is probably going to be fine as long as it is correctly tuned afterwards as he mentions.
@@1StefenM You'll still need to tell the Engine Control Unit (ECU) that there is a change in air flow otherwise it wont know what to do with all the excess air going in the bike and probably cause major problems
@@TweaQAU So a brand new bike with new technology cant adjust AFR? I find that hard to believe, I'm sure you'll be fine running air filter and exhaust and get a tune whenever you'd like. I'm almost sure the in 2023 newer ecu can adjust fuel and not just blow the engine up. I'm not saying you don't need a tune, you certainly will need a tune if you want full power out of the mods but you don't "need" it.
This has got to be the best tutorial I’ve ever seen. Not just “take these bolts out” and constant cuts to the end of the steps, you actually showed us how to take the bits apart and had great camera work too. Really appreciated this! Hope everyone else follows suit
This has got to be the clearest and best tutorial I’ve ever seen, if I haven’t had seen this video I would be sat the for hours. You actually made it so much easier just by taking us through all instructions

A MASSIVE THANK YOU FOR THIS! i know the cb650r is a new bike, and i'm new to bikes myself. i think this is the first video I've seen where I've truly seen the inside of the bike!
@@geraldp494 Hello! Not so bad. It is quite easy to install, but honestly do not expect any significant gain if you do not also replace your stock exhaust or at least the silencer and this is valid for any bike. Otherwise, KN, BMC and DNA have equivalent performance and you can keep them for life on your bike. Just watch the price on ebay, it may vary from one merchant to another. I got my KN for 65 euros delivery included.
@@RAFHonda cheers. It's going to have a heated grips, screen, quickshifter, tail tidy, charging adapter and akro exhaust which are the ones I wanted so I will update after I've been riding for a bit. Any standard maintenance videos for it would be grand though until then
Good Job- A good understanding of each connection and fastening is greatly appreciated. - Have you every replaced the ignition barrel for a new 1? Attempted theft of my CBR 650r has resulted in it requiring replacement.
Glad you enjoyed it! I've recorded replacing the stock tail but I'm thinking of doing these so far: - Mirrors - Levers - Bar ends Any more you'd like to see?
Thanks. It would be great these videos because I want to change mirrors and levers. Also you could record how change or remove exhaust, wheels, chain maintenance .... I’ll keep following you for new videos 👍👍👍👍
What a great video I do have a request on changing the coolant.that would be a great help,but your videos definitely inspired me to do the work myself.
Awesome video and extremely well explained! One question I’m hoping you can answer is when you change the 4 trumpets (to de-restrict it) do you need to have the ECU flashed to adjust for the full amount of air flow into each cylinder or will the ECU make its own adjustment to produce the claimed 94 hp? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. This includes anyone who has done the same. 👍😎
Since you're changing the flow rate on the exhaust and effectively letting the bike breathe more, it would be strongly advised to flash it so it wouldn't run lean. Almost as if you're doing a full system.
Thank you for this video. Can you make one for replacing spark plugs? Also did you do that with an ampty tank or how come fuel was not coming out when you disconnected the hoses?
It doesn't need to be completely emptied, as the only fuel that will leak is in the pipes. It might help to run it nearly empty to aid in lifting it off the bike :)
Thank you for this, .... so Easy! i just brought 3 weeks ago 2020 CBR650R they are magic machine, so when i order a replacement unrestricted replacement, what is this to give me in Torque/HP? compared to the Restricted - doesn't it need a retune?
Glad you're enjoying it! I assume your CB650R is A2 restricted (EU Regulations; 47hp/35kW and maximum 0.2kW/kg), and so derestricted to full power, you would expect to see 94hp at the crank; 80ish hp at the wheels. You'd also see a 0-60 time improvement from approximately 5.5/6 seconds to about 3.2 seconds, and a top speed change from about 100mph to 140mph (or there abouts). Hope this helps!
It's an R&G Tail Tidy! I've actually done an install video for it here: ua-cam.com/video/Be2POMy5W0Y/v-deo.html The model number is in the description :)
Many CB650R riders would like to get their ECU's remapped once of licencing restrictions. A common way of getting this done is by shipping the ECU via post to a reputable service centre. What's the chance of putting out a video on how to access and remove the unit?
This is not just a UA-cam video but a lesson. Thank you very much. Subbed and liked🤗🤗🔥💯 The usb connector, where did you buy it from and does it deplete the battery when the bike is off?
Thank you so much for your kind words! So I bought the cigarette lighter socket from Honda themselves, the adapter was from an old Samsung phone, and the 2m extension was from Amazon :) It does discharge the battery slightly, so I'd recommend a killswitch on the battery if you go a long time between rides, but because I commute daily, it doesn't affect performance. Hope this helps! Thank you for you subscription, I've many more videos to come!
I’m about to buy a used CBR650R. The old dude runs straight free flow pipes, fully derestricted air trumpets and the ECU flash for full power. On the other hand I’m upgrading from a little GSX150R, so maybe if I can get it restricted again, until get enough practice and confidence!
Many thanks, I'll have a look into the PAIR removal, I haven't done it myself but I should be able to record a video on it. As far as I know, the A2 restriction is European only and the LAMS restriction is for all bikes sold in Australia. I think the US models are sold as full power from the dealer. I may be wrong!
Please yes do the PAIR delete if you can, this is the mod I am trying to do now but I am worried as I am new to tinkering on my motorcycle and would hate to mess anything up on my beloved CB
It definitely gets affected by the passenger when it comes to performance, and my girlfriend says that the seat isn't very comfortable for rides longer than 30 minutes, but around the city and shorter distances; apparently it's fine! Hope this helps
Hey, I hope you can help me. You stated, that you would need to go to a Honda dealer to flash the ECU if you have installed the trumpets for the restricted version. Now my question is: can the dealer just flash the ECU or does he need a Micro Controlled Restriction module that would cost another 200€. I could buy a bile that the seller bought restricted so he already has the restricted trumpets. I would only need to install them.
Does the fuel tank has to be empty before renoving it, or is there some kind of "spilling prevention system"? Sorry if this question might seem stupid :)
Yes, an ECU remap is required. Either that, or you take it to a garage with a Dyno and they can put a tune on it that fools the bike into giving full power. Honda dealerships will charge £100 to return the bike to its stock, full power setting.
It looks like quite a straight forward job. I’ve got the Matt blue bike and am looking at getting it protected with PPF film. With this video I am tempted to just take the tank off and take that to them rather than the whole bike.
Michael Steele Ah yeah forgot about the whole lockdown thing, maybe 5 ‘essential’ trips to the shops and back that are 15 miles away?! Or you could siphon the tank, there’s no real anti-siphon protection for this bike apart from the tank lock
You will need to get the ECU remapped, otherwise the bike will notice the increased airflow and put the bike into a rev-limiting mode where you can't go above 6,000 RPM. If you sweet-talk someone at a Honda dealership, you can usually get this done for an hour's labour.
Great walkthrough. Bit of a noob question but how much fuel did you have when you performed that tank removal? Had you run it down entirely or just on the final bar but tipped to the back?
I had it on the final bar, but regardless of how much fuel you have in the tank, there won't be too much fuel spillage out of the pipe. I don't think it's that crucial, but it may make it easier to handle when you're removing and fitting it!
@@RAFHonda so the pipe just has some excess fuel that was on its way to be burned but does not flow freely from the tank out of this pipe? Maybe it only opens the pipe when the bike is on and the throttle is open?
@@donkeytronkilla That's correct. There's a valve that's only open when the green 90 degree connector is plugged in, meaning you can't drain all the fuel whilst it's unplugged.
PLEASE NOTE: You will have to get the ECU flashed at an approved Honda dealership alongside replacing the restricted air trumpets in order to get the full unrestricted power. I was able to get this done for only an hour's labour at my local dealership.
What was the implications of this on your insurance mate? Did you have to do redo rego and inform insurance company as well?

Also did you do that with an ampty tank or how come fuel was not coming out when you disconnected the hoses?
I actually LOVE the air intake design, and the exhaust, and would like it on the 1000
Thanks for the great tutorial! Do you need to drain the tank before removing it?
Thank you. Very useful video
So are you saying that you only need to change the restricted trumpets to factory trumpets to gain power without having to flash the CPU?
Grand merci, cher ami britannique !
Tu l'as fait sur la tienne l'ami?
Great video thank you very much! Will be very sweet if you can do a bar end mirror installation. Honda's bar ends is such a nightmare.😥
I'll see what I can do!
how many km did you do on this air filter?
Very detailed, Great video!
The cb(r)650r is also resistricted via software! Only changing the funnels will not give you full power.
Looks like Hastings drive, used to live there a while back

Quick question. Where does one obtain the air trumpets?
I tried looking online and found little luck
Very nice you share your knowledge thanks.
Thanks! Great tutorial! more of those please :)
Does every CB650R have this 12V socket under the seat? And when does it give power: on ignition or always?
It does not come stock with the bike but you can get an official Honda one for it! It provides power on ignition only. Hope this helps :)
so to remove limitation you should be change the aspiration only?
Many CB650R riders would like to get their ECU's remapped once of licencing restrictions. A common way of getting this done is by shipping the ECU via post to a reputable service centre. What's the chance of putting out a video on how to access and remove the unit?
does it need a changing mapping too for get original full power?
Great tutorial mate. Isn't the bike also limited electronically?
Yes, you'll need to flash the ECU as well as changing the air trumpets. Speak to your local Honda dealer, it can be done for a reasonable price :)

What happens if you remove the airtrumpets but dont change the ECU?
What part of this video did you remove the restrictor, I’m confused ?
Same bro
At 5:14 he says to remove the screws to the trumpets...
RningOnFumes and replace them with new unrestricted, tnx
the tank cap is original or aftermarket? (not the plate for the luggage
The tank cap is stock, but it may look different because of the Givi luggage attachment :)
A little help, for driving two people, how is the Honda CB650R behaving and what are your experiences?

Did you have to tune your bike after removing the air restirction?
Do you need to drain the fuel tank before you remove it?
Nope :) Although you might want to run the tank below half to make it easier to lift and carry!
Do you get any hp from unrestraing it? Or do you have to flash the ÉCU to get any hp?
Does the fuel tank has to be empty before renoving it, or is there some kind of "spilling prevention system"? Sorry if this question might seem stupid :)
Where you have bought the original snorkel?
Hello, to remove the intake restriction is necessary to change the ecu map? Or just changing that piece i'ts enough. Thank you!
You still need change a software
Can this be done without ecu map? I’d assume it would run super lean with all the extra air intake?
Does it need ecu flash?
Wait what are the unrestricted factory screws? don't think I've got those
would the North American models have the unrestricted trumpets?
I believe so!
I removed air trumpets totally without replacing it and now I will do dyno tune is it correct or I should put new trumpets?
awesome!!!
so no ecu remapping needed???
This is what I want to know
@@Outdoorstuff1 you n me both bud
Yes, an ECU remap is required. Either that, or you take it to a garage with a Dyno and they can put a tune on it that fools the bike into giving full power. Honda dealerships will charge £100 to return the bike to its stock, full power setting.

@@migsteele Yes, I'd take just the tank for sure. Just remember to ride the bike until it's low on fuel; the garage will thank you!

Michael Steele Ah yeah forgot about the whole lockdown thing, maybe 5 ‘essential’ trips to the shops and back that are 15 miles away?! Or you could siphon the tank, there’s no real anti-siphon protection for this bike apart from the tank lock
Is this restriction on the US market bikes? I just bought a CB650R and want to know if I’ll have to do this.
Can you ride it like that just fine without remapping the ECU? Does it compensate on increased airflow? I bought one with intake restrictors cut out.
You will need to get the ECU remapped, otherwise the bike will notice the increased airflow and put the bike into a rev-limiting mode where you can't go above 6,000 RPM. If you sweet-talk someone at a Honda dealership, you can usually get this done for an hour's labour.
