After installing fuelx lite Does this create a problem while checking pollution of our bike ? No one has talked about this
@MotoMirius6 күн бұрын
It is a separate issue. If you modify your bike then you will risk the bike no longer being compliant - but not all changes will make the bike non compliant. There are too many variables to discuss whether the FuelX will make the bike non compliant - it isn't a simple yes or no question - a change to one bike in country A may have no impact but the same change made in Country B may make it non compliant because Country B has different environmental conditions. But the real question is enforcement - what is the risk that your bike will be checked? If no one ever checks, then what is your risk?

I like to take saturdays or sundays to go over the bike like this(learned a good few extra steps I wasnt aware of here) aswell as wash it over and remove the layer of squashed insects thats accumulated over the week.. Before I ride I always look underneath first to check for oil and fluid spillage, I then step on the tires to check pressure(obviously not an accurate reading, but when it is the correct pressure almost all the time I do notice if its off after having done it everytime), I get on the bike and turn on it on, then I check the lights, breaklight and signal light, lastly check the breakes by making sure they dont give when I squeeze them. All in all takes 10-15 seconds extra in the morning before I start my commute to work.

Depends what you mean by a full exhaust, but if you have removed the original system and replaced it with a free flow system, then you would need to update the map - not doing so not only is likely to create issues with idle (this is often normal after fitting a new exhaust as the ECU needs to update the map), but also can result in engine damage if the change is beyond the adjustment limits allowed by the ECU.

🤣 " air is very squashy, water is a little bit more squashy and certainly is more squashy than brake fluid. To a certain degree". What absolute crap!

A liquids volume does compress under pressure. It's not a lot with water but it does compress.

Congratulations on all the great content you put out for the 390 community, it's a blessing! I'm now a bit confused on what to get. My bike : MY22 Duke 390 As for now : full stock Performance mod to come : *Full line (de-cat and pre-baffle delete) *Open airbox Intended use of the bike : *Lot of spirited mountain riding *A bit of street riding * Parking lot practice low speed, gymkhana * Occasional track day on super moto/go-kart small track What I want out of these upgrade : * Lighter bike * Bike that doesn't run lean * Better throttle response * A bit of power gain is good but not a priority So now my question is : As I do not plan to use a Dyno but not against it. would you advise a simple Fuel X, a RBevo (or race ?) or a PT (which I understand is not optinal unless Dyno tuned). Many Thanks !
@MotoMirius21 күн бұрын
Thanks! If you are looking for power gain then you need to be looking for a unit such as the PT and getting a proper tune on it. If more power is nice to have then the FuelX Lite or RB Evo are good choices - Race is possible but you have to be a bit more serious again - Lite and EVO are install and forget. Of course you get what you pay for - Lite is cheap but runs only one sensor, EVO is more expensive but uses more sensors so is more likely to produce better results. While it is tempting to save weight by removing the presilencer, this has been shown to reduce mid range power so I would not recommend it for your build. Good luck!

@@DujeKlanac Well it's obviously not legal. The issue that you need to be most aware of is insurance. If you have an accident where someone else is injured then your insurance company will impound the bike and go through it with a fine tooth comb. Anything like this will invalidate your insurance and make you personally liable for all claims - running into the hundreds of thousands with a fatality. And having been caught riding illegally, even if you were not at fault, you are likely to become personally liable as the other insurance companies will take it as an out. Now - how likely is this? Well, sods law says that it will never happen unless you do something like this. Really, legality is the least of the potential issues with the conversion and you really can't count on it not coming out - the bike will be impounded by the police - your mates won't be able to collect or hide it, and an expert mechanic will go over the bike inch by inch - they aren't stupid, they know all the tricks!

Ahhh... Anybody that fully understands WHAT the AIS actually does and how it benefits smooth running and INCREASES performance by way of INCREASING exhaust gas flow will absolutely NOT disable the AIS. When you disable the AIS you certainly WILL have 'popping from the pipe' because you have just screwed up carburation tuning by reducing exhaust gas flow efficiency. Why did exhaust gas flow better with AIS functioning? Because introducing fresh air (oxygen) into the exhaust keeps the flame coming out of the port and into the exhaust system burning longer and stronger. Of course that will make the exhaust gas hotter... It is Proven FACT that hotter exhaust gas flows more easily and readily than 'cooler' exhaust gas. I have performance re-tuned TONs of V-Star 650's under various states of performance modification including dealing with machines that came in the shop with the AIS removed. You can get rid of popping from the pipe by re-tuning the carburation to match the reduction in exhaust flow but tuning will be 'touchy' due to the loss of exhaust flow efficiency and overall PERFORMANCE WILL SUFFER.! My experience is not limited to the V-Star in this area. ALL Japanese machines exhibit the same benefit of a hotter exhaust flow. Proven years before AIS was introduced to our motorbikes. Again... It is proven FACT that the hotter the exhaust gas the more readily and easily it will flow. The AIS does that for you.
