701 And The Magic Dongle

I went on a journey to understand how the Fuel Torque O2 controller works. After speaking to Rex Fleiter from Fuel Torque I bought one, installed it on my Husky 701 and took it for a test run.
You can message Rex at / www.fueltorque.com.au
Or via email at: [e-mail]
Note: I paid full price (AUD $220) for my Controller and believe it is money well spent. I don't get any commissions from Rex, I like promoting his product because I believe in it.

[@craighoffman6876]

Enjoyed the video! Interesting product. One way or another, it is pretty much mandatory to do something about the excessively lean part throttle closed loop mapping the 690 platform is forced to ship with. Big thumpers should rip off the bottom and the 690 does if fed enough fuel. I'm in the US and have a 701 Enduro with the Rottweiler dongle and PC6 with their map, trimmed airbox snorkel and a Yosh R-77 can. It did run notably better with just the dongle, but with the mapped PC6 and the can, the Kraken is really unleashed. My biggest challenge now is not going to jail because I like to do wheelies and they do come easy now 😆 While it helps a lot on it's own, the real purpose of the simple RT dongle is to take the O2 sensor out of the equation so the ECU won't "fight" the Power Commander. Adding a Power Commander with no dongle and the O2 sensor in place is pointless, as the ECU will adjust to lean out any settings in the PC back to the 14.7 AFR target. It seems to me that if one just wants to run a dongle this device is the best way to go, but if they want to run a fully mapped PC6 setup, the Rottweiler dongle is the way to go as it deletes the O2 sensor entirely. The bike's fuel injection still adapts to temperature and elevation as it has the baro sensor in the airbox. The narrow band O2 sensor isn't there for our benefit, it is there strictly for emissions regulations in the closed loop area. The 690 platform, once set up, really is the 50/50 dual sport unicorn. It may not be the "best" but it is "good enough" wherever it goes, with a serious helping of power. The bike's versatile fun lively nature is why I love it so much.

I had Rex retune my 500 excf for more mid range. Lots of Aussie owners swear by his work.

[@brettslavin2047]

How is the difference in fuel economy? Be interesting to see any differences around town, on the highway and in the bush.

[@uncopino]

the bike will use a bit more fuel with the dongle. it’s sending a richer fuel/air mixture after all

[@2wheelsinmotion]

Morning Brent, first up your video production is great, so thank you. Yes, Ive also been reading some positive feedback about Rex and will keep doing some research and your video also helps that. I'm enjoying the additions your making as they are very much aligned with what i'm think for the bike once it arrives ( the style of heated grips, Cruise etc) .... except for the clutch...... IMO 😊. I looked at the Rekluse for the BMW but as my local (BM Motorcycles) said ... the old one lasted 100k so stick with the OEM. I realise there are other aspects to the Rekluse but maybe down the track. I look forward to your next Vid, David

[@brentbat]

Hey David, thanks for your note. On the Rekluse, just to clarify, the reason for this clutch has nothing to do with longevity, iti's what it gives you when climbing tricky terrain. You can just point the bike up steep hills in second gear and it is feathering the clutch for you beautifully as you motor up. No stalling... it's great. There are a couple of downsides to the Rekluse, but I love it for the tighter stuff.

[@2wheelsinmotion]

Thanks Brent, I'll be really interested in your thoughts over time with the clutch

[@fireboxstove]

I'm in! I'll be ordering one of these dongles. I have a recluse clutch that I haven't had the time to install but I also purchased a Clake 2 left hand brake after recently running into trouble on a steep hill climb. I stalled my bike 15 ft from the top. My gears held my bike in place and I was able to start again and make it up but I realized upon reflection that if I had the recluse my bike would have immediately rolled backwards then what often happens is a desperate Rev in a last ditch effort which causes the bike to flip over. Thanks for the info about the dongle! I'm excited to try it!

[@brentbat]

Hey Firebox, yes, your comments are bang on regarding the Rekluse. I LOVE it for doing technical stuff and hill climbing, it makes it so easy, but you are right, stopping on a steep hill and rolling back is the risk. Was the Clake 2 brake difficult to install? That might negate the major downside of the Rekluse.

[@reidferguson7842]

I'm looking for feedback (good videos btw mate). I bought a low km 2021 690 with all the work already done. With rade garage tank + luggage (coyote bag not the bathroom sink), I am chewing 7.5L/100km pretty consistently. Even off-highway, with mixed riding, its essentially 7.5L. I've come from a DRZ so don't think I'm riding it that hard (however the power def puts a grin on). I am chasing more range. Today I unplugged my fuel torque dongle. Ran it idle for 20 mins. Then rode it in the arvo on street for an hour. I prefer it now, it doesn't pull so hard straight from the bottom, the marginal extra low rev jerkyness I find minimal and, really that's why there is a clutch? I see nothing but rave reviews about this product so I must be in the wrong? It even felt smoother on the highway in 5th gear but I that doesn't make sense if the dongle doesn't impact anything over 4000revs. Anyone ever removed theirs and gone back to test? I am interested to see what it does to my range. I'm just throwing it out there, but Brent having that rekluse somewhat impact the use of this product? open to thoughts.

[@brentbat]

Yes, I've taken off my dongle due to the fuel it was chewing, and it was running too rich. I'm thinking of sending my ECU off to the guy in QLD who flashes them. Apparently optimal power without the excess consumption.

[@jamesb1412]

Is it still making a difference? Maybe try unplugging it and see if there’s still a difference of if the changes have been filed out. Would be interesting to know if fuel economy changed? Thanks for the video. 👍

[@brentbat]

No, I've pulled it out now. I think if I really wanted to fix the lean low end, I'd get the ECU flashed properly.

[@jamesb1412]

Interesting that you removed it. I guess it wasn’t making any difference anymore. I recently purchased a new MY23. It’s totally stock. But seems really pretty smooth on the low end. Very similar to any other big single I’ve had. I have my GS1250 up for sale at the moment. Downsizing due to family commitments not allowing for the time for big trips. Very impressed with the 701. The motor is an absolute jewel! Great having the ABS and TC safety nets. I had been thinking about a tower but probably won’t bother. I would like cruse control because I’m so used to using it. I would like some increased security too. Might look at an alarm. Safe riding 🫡

[@Rossi593]

Hi Brent. Just bought a 2023 (Euro5) 701 in standard form. I love its relative quietness with stock pipe and airbox along with its excellent punch. The low end is, however, snatchy and as unpleasant as expected either for town riding (I live in London) or more technical trails so pondering doing what you did or other potential fixes. Just wanted to ask if it remained as good over the longer term? Thanks, Ian

[@brentbat]

Hey Ian Sadly I found the fuel economy to be too much of a hit with the dongle. I've gone back to stock for the moment, but I'm thinking of sending my ECU away to one of several companies that reprogram it to the correct air/fuel mixture. I know there are some folks that do it in the EU, you should do some research on it. It's more expensive than the dongle, but it is the "proper" solution for it. Enjoy your 701... I just got back from the Victorian High Country on mine and had a hoot. It's an amazing bike... the more you ride it the more you will love it.

[@bazza8947]

Should be great on the trails where you're using lower RPM's. As Rex said, it won't do anything above 4-5000rpms.

Hi Brent, great vid. I have this Fuel Torque dongle but took it off as found the fuel consumption increased dramatically. Have you noticed this or am I doing something wrong? Cheers Andy

Totally agree with you. I'd read about the Autotune, but wasn't sure how it worked, I'm not sure where it is fed it's input from. Does it also get a feed from the O2 sensor?

@@brentbatif you use autotune you have to install a new wideband sensor the orginal narrowband o2 sensor is no buene. Narrowbands are excellent when it comes to finding 14.7:1, but they aren't nearly as accurate when air/fuel reaches either side of this ratio. Wideband sensors are built for pinpoint accuracy. They send voltage to the ECU on a scale of 1 to 5 so that it knows exactly what is required to maintain target air/fuel ratios

I have a rottweiler fuel dongle in my 2021 701 sm,the jerky throttle is no more,runs richer,cooler.😍

[@BoreasQ]

This thing is UNABLE to measure the "AFR" like Rex saying, because this controller sits inline with the O2 sensor. There is no such a kind of information there. It is very simple circuit: two wires go to the O2 sensor heater and two other ones provide the voltage from the sensor which level is changing depending on the amount of O2 in the exhaust gases. What this "magic" box does is intercepting and measuring the voltage from the O2 sensor then kicks in and corrects the voltage when it reaches certain threshold. The original Closed loop AF ratio is 14.7:1 - which is very lean The original Open loop AF ratio is 13.4:1 The variation is 1.3 When this controller installed the values become as follows: Closed loop AF ratio is 13.6:1 - it gets richer which adds stability and runs cooler Open loop AF ratio is 13.4:1 - it stays same. The variation is 0.2 So this little box is a bit more intelligent thing than the resistor-based dumb dongles. It doesn't take to remove the O2 sensor, so your ECU and engine will work a bit healthier. ...Check ebay.

[@MarkMuller1000]

Hi Brent thanks for the great vid. I also have the LR and just got one of these from Rex in Brisbane after watching your review. Everything works just as you describe. Also I am interested in your thoughts on the MCCruise control unit as I've been considering one of these as well. Cheers.

[@brentbat]

Hey Mark I really like the cruise control from MC Cruise. I came from a GS, so I was a bit spoilt and got used to cruise control and loved it for the longer trips. I fitted the cruise control myself (I'm pretty basic with the tools, so if I can do it... anybody can). The unit works really well... just the same as my GS cruise control. I'm getting ready for a 9-day trip through the Flinders Ranges, so I'll be doing some big distances, and the cruise control will just it make it that much more enjoyable. Also having some wind protection helps, and I've just got my Seat Comfort seat but haven't tried that yet... so I should be all set.

[@MarkMuller1000]

Ok sounds good. I’ve also got a 1200GS so know exactly how you feel. The 701LR is my latest ADV project I’m going to use to keep up with mates on 690s. My main concern with the cruise is fitting the controller on my bar that already has an additional fuel tank switch and headlight switch.

Hi Brent, what is your long term assessment of this dongle. I read in one of your posts that you like the power delivery but not sure if your fuel economy got worse. Could you please provide an update. Thanks

[@brentbat]

Hey there, My long term assessment is that the dongle just doesn't run right for my bike MY21 701. It gives plenty of power, but it is running too rich. Lots of carbon build up in the exhaust pipe etc. Also the hit to fuel economy is pretty significant. I've found a guy who can dynotune the bike and knows how to access the ECU for a "proper tune". I'm going to do that in the next couple of weeks.

[@EricBanner571]

@@brentbat Hi Brent, I'm from Sydney and have just purchased a 22 Gas Gas es 700 euro 5 and can feel it is a little lean off the bottom. I'm looking to add a wings exhaust and Rade air box which will probably make it worse. I found a guy on Ebay who makes these dongles and there is a VB version for the euro 4 and a VC for the euro 5 models. He also sells a fuel controller so you can adjust the amount of fuel. You may want to get in contact with him first before spending the money on the tune. Here are his comments- The Euro 5 ECU's are pretty good in the open loop, they run around 13.6:1 with the air box & VC controller, I do sell an adjustable fuel mod that can correct the open loop AFR but you hardly need to add much more fuel in the open loop to get it down to 13.2:1, most of the guys are just running the VC controller.

Hey Adrian No, I'd probably hold off on the dongle. I found the fuel economy suffered too much and the bike actually ran too rich (fouling of plugs and exhaust header). So I have pulled mine off. I'm actually OK with the way the bike is riding without it. But if I did want to get more optimum low rev performance, I'd send the ECU away to one of the guys that remap it professionally.

Well, that answers my question. I also have a Euro 5 701 that I was about to get the "VC" dongle for. The maker of Rex's dongles also makes a leaner version called the "VE" for the Euro 5 ECU's. It is a compromise between ideal AFR and fuel consumption. I will give it a go instead. Can't go wrong for $130. In the future, I'll do as Brent suggests and get YURI in Toowoomba to remap my ECU. @@brentbat

In our local Israeli version, the dongle simply tells the ECU that the unit reading is fine- all time. it's doesn't adapt or calculate temp, pipe or filter data but it's still helps in low RPM. the upgraded air filter and the dongle together makes a big difference in performance, no doubt. hope you all can ride soon without restrictions.

Hey Gloss. So here's what happened, I put the dongle in my MY21 701 and the low end power was great, but the fuel economy took a real hit (about 28%) and some of the others with MY21 models reported it running too rich.

the powercommander as all piggyback systems can’t do anything in the low revs/under 30% throttle zone. the ecu goes in closed loop control and the powercommander is byoassed. so you need a real o2 sensor bypassing dongle (a cheaper one like rottweiler’s) so you can send ecu in always open loop thus allowing the powercommander to override at all revs and all throttle openings.

I have sent them a message the 10/11/2022 still no answer and the message has been read on the messenger chat 🤷‍♂

Sorry mate... i guess that is Rex..... he is a bit of a one-man-band and you never know what is going on. I know a mate who rides a 701 who bought a fuel dongle from a Spanish company and he loves it. If you reach out to Dan, he could point you in the right direction. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnubkoF6qdGAfrM

There's anybody can post me the link to buy this dongle?! Thanks in advance

[@brentbat]

The email address is in the KZbin description.

Do you have a link to the shop?

[@brentbat]

Hey Oyvind Rex is a bit "Old school" but he provides great service. Best way to reach him is via email at [e-mail]. Or you can find him by searching for a group on facebook called Fuel Torque and message him through there. Good luck, you'll enjoy the 02 controller.

Available for BMW?

[@brentbat]

I’m not sure which Bikes Tex has dongles/ecu maps for. But you can email him at [e-mail]

[@demzunoplayer]

N/A, I checked.

You should be on commission for this 🙂

[@brentbat]

Ha! Thanks but no thanks.... 3 reasons I would rather NOT be on commission. 1) I can be more independent and say what I think 2) If I like a product, I want to support the manufacturer and I'm happy for them to keep the margin. 3) I don't need the commission, I have a real job and prefer to give genuine thoughts (rather than paid for opinion).
