2022 xr650l stock vs piped lid removed and tuned

KAPLAN is getting 45 hp+ out of this motor but they open it up to bore & grind..!!

[@Itsjake908]

Hey man!!! Make sure you change that front sprocket if you haven’t already. These bikes are known to have shitty front sprockets that wear out the splines on the shaft. Fritzko makes a good aftermarket one. Please look into this!!!

[@banshee100]

I changed it rocky mountain makes one I used with wider splines

Best video out there to help me tune and get my bike set up. Thank you. Be safe on that beast.

Thanks man your one of the first 👍 that's not had something bad to say ,appreciate you watching

@@banshee100 just picked mine up a few weeks ago. Still bone stock. I’m going to see if my local motorcycle shop will do this for me. $500 is well worth it.

I wonder if you port and polished the head and header to see what happens then. thanks

Man it is neet to see what that machine is Sniffing coming out of that pipe ! 165 main and 55 pilot really made a big difference in the curve... I did the Dave's mod but didn't change the pilot as it was running great..... it looks like that gave you alot more bottom end, so I may do that. my plug color is perfect just where I want it (dark tan) but it does seem to lack some on the bottom end... so I'll try changing the pilot jet .... I just drilled the main jet to the next bigger size.... and the idea behind drilling the holes in the slide to 5/32" is to increase throttle response.... that Does definitely work ! response does seem to be quite a bit faster! I saw a guy buy a wide band O2 sensor and mount it on his exhaust pipe so he could see what the carbs are actually doing....after realizing that the higher the number the leaner it was he got it running 9 times better than it was running... it told him right where to look ! so maybe the wide band O2 sensor is the poor man's Dyno tuning eh ? I de smogged my bike and put on the block off plates... I have a supertrapp muffler (wouldn't even run the stock boat anchor they call a muffler !) ....on top of all that I lowered the seat height a full 4" so my 30" inseam can flat foot it ! but mine does not wheelie like yours does ! .... it goes, but not like that !!!! that is impressive !

Awesome video thanks for sharing

[@dannycaldwell7051]

Very informative video does he have the equipment to dyno/tune atv's?

[@banshee100]

He don't man just bikes is all the dyno will do

[@letsgo8941]

Thanks for the video. As much as we all do these modifications to our XR's its surprisingly difficult to find dyno results. Would also be interested in seeing if an aftermarket filter helps. The stock looks restrictive, for what that's worth.

[@banshee100]

He said it would ,yes to put a k&n on it

[@derekgamache6294]

Im just starting my xr650l build, I ride a lot of trails and campgrounds. How much am I giving up sticking with the full stock exhaust? Couple hp up top or is it choked out through the whole rev range? Any input appreciated thanks.

[@banshee100]

Whole Rev range

[@johnmclaughlin4802]

Great job fellas 👍🇺🇸

[@cow7boy]

How much does a shop like this charge to do what they did for your bike? Just curious. Thanks.

[@banshee100]

500

[@micwell2247]

Why would ya screw with something that works vs screw with it and make it unreliable and lets you set out in the woods some where.. How much did you wanna pay again ??? Mid of the road performance is reliable, higher performance cost and reliability goes down. There is something to say about consistency. I know you don't want to pay out top buck for the price of a factory works bike !!! This as you can see by little margined gained vs rider says a ton.. guess you have to go wfo every where you go must for some. reason mean something as you lay in a hospital bed blaming the bike...

[@banshee100]

The is the most ignorant comment that has ever been posted at no point do you make any sense! THERES NOTHING UNRELIABLE ABOUT THE BIKE NOW ! I MEAN I CAN DRIVE THE BIKE BETTER THAN STOCK NOW not just wot was tuned the needle and pilot was done also 😉 your comment is ignorant and it shows ,so nobody cares what you think about my bike so keep those ignorant ass comments to your self

[@M_Duhamel]

This guy obviously has no clue about what manufacturers have to do to meet EPA regulations for street legal motorcycles. Bikes run so lean from the factory to meet emissions which not only chokes power but also often makes them run hotter than necessary which actually is bad for reliability.

[@Dave_A41]

did you have the 15/45 stock sprockets on in this video?

[@banshee100]

What

[@uffeibsen8872]

What is the Rev Red Line on the XR650L ???

[@banshee100]

Can't remember but I think close to 6k

[@AliasTekTV]

According to dirt bike dyno the CDI will let it run to 9k. Please don't, there is already massive stress on the rod bearing from the massive slug moving up and down. They roll off about 6500/7000.

[@banshee100]

@AliasTekTV yes I know could not remember

[@walterhorn5567]

@uffeibsen8872 These are not high-performance water cooled motors that spin higher p.m. these motors are tractors that allow you to lazily ride around and bog out of a corner in fourth gear and have the motor pull just as hard as if you’ve been revving it out in second gear.
