Hot rodding sort of involves more than changing an air filter and plugging in a power commander…

[@SuperDave479]

Just got to say thank you so much for this video! The jerkiness at slow speeds on my 1100 DCT was very annoying. I did the DCT reset and that helped, but only for a little while. After watching this video I decided to take a chance with the Power Commander and it is a night and day difference at slow speeds. I did not change the filter btw. I also used your instructions for the install and that helped greatly. Thanks for what you do, man. Your videos have helped make this bike exactly what I wanted and I’m super grateful.

[@markc19821]

This was also my case with the 1100 DCT. From day 2 I just dialed back the engine breaking and ran it in individual (custom) mode and it solved the problem. When I want to drive more aggressively and want those hard shifts I just flip it to Sport on the fly! Just something for people to try before they take this next step! Thank you Burch for all you do, it's so helpful to the community!!!

[@SuperDave479]

@@markc19821 While that does help and definitely everyone needs to try that, I still found it to be too much. Other people on the Rebel3 forums think so as well. I have had it on the lowest setting for a while actually. This makes it smoother than that lowest setting.

I understood exactly what you meant about the engine breaking even on the lowest setting its still pretty substantial. You were the main reason i chose the 1100 to be my very first bike so im glad you've been making more content for all of us to enjoy thanks Burch!

That’s so awesome that I could help you pick the Rebel 1100 as a first bike!! So sick! And yea, the engine braking can be a real pain at times, but this totally remedies that! I was very pleasantly surprised 🙌🏻

[@LinkFelton]

Banger video as always. Glad you are enjoying that Power Commander man. Trust me it's not a placebo. Throttle response is insanely better and performance is way up. For us DCT guys, it has the added benefit of increasing the Auto-Shift redline to 8k instead of 6.5k. It's worth it 100%. I'd recommend a professional tune with the air filter and exhaust replacement for sure. Now we gotta get our "Mexican counterparts" to do a run of DCT v Manual after I get me an air filter haha

[@LifeOfBurch]

Yeesss trip to Mexico ASAP!! 👀👀👀

[@larifari4371]

@LinkFelton What map did you use? And more importantly: How did you disable the lambda control? With an intact lambda control ("closed loop") any sigificant map change is compensated for in real time and therefore useless.

[@LinkFelton]

@@larifari4371 I have a custom tune. And I'm not 100%. I would assume my tuner was able to disable it since the bike feels completely different than stock. As a note, I do have a Power Commander 5 and not a 6. I got a Power Commander as soon as it came out for the Rebel 1100, and at that time they still had the PC5

[@larifari4371]

@@LinkFelton What do you mean "not 100%" ? Congrats if you have sombody who got the PC5 working! Would probably be very interesting for lots of us how your tuner disabled lambda control. The ECU could be flashed or there is a 02 Optimizer, as there were lots for older models in the golden past. For the Rebel 1100 I found NOTHING. So I am stuck with my useless PC5 (wich is actually better than PC6 but does nothing to overcome lambda control as well).

I always get a bike custom mapped on a rolling road with the Powercommander. Only way to get correct FA mix and max power. Nice one.

[@larifari4371]

@dubiousricardo not so easy anymore. Most bikes run in closed loop at most RPM especially the lower and mid range and whatever the PowerCommander says to the bike in cloosed loop will be ignored. There he is not in charge.

[@dav8388]

Glad to see it made a big difference. That Install looked a lot easier than my Shadow. Mine had a single wire I had to splice into the TPS, and I had to T off one of the coil packs. I need to get mine tuned by someone I'm currently just using the downloaded tune from their site.

[@LifeOfBurch]

Sheeeesh yea it sounds like the install on your Shadow was much more involved than this, which I’m glad about because I’m always skeptical splicing or cutting anything like that. Electric work is the one thing that stresses me out most 😅😂

@lifeofburch You use the original screws for the DNA filter. Like the oem, the holes are designed to hold the screws. Just push, I know as I did this a few months back.

[@LifeOfBurch]

Really?? It didn’t seem like there was any way they were getting in there 😳 I just got new screws with smaller heads and they seem to be working great.

[@rescue_and_rehab]

Just a hard push will do it. The smaller head screw should hold it okay. You just need to watch when taking the filter off next time. The first screw getting pushed in got the heart pumping and the air a little blue 😁

[@davidphillips7255]

Testing done years ago by Gordon Jennings at Cycle showed that stock paper filters are far superior for actually filtering air compared to the so called high performance filters that need to be cleaned and reoiled. A clean engine is a long lasting engine. Using a high flow filter that doesn't filter out grit as effectively is a good way to have a prematurely worn out engine. This is well known by lubrication experts.

I also added an open header from Black Widow Exhaust(UK), Pod 300, and wide band sensor to tune the open loop range. Still waiting for Smart Moto to come out with Euro 5 O2 sensor eliminator, so can final tune the close loop range on the PC 6. By the way, good job protecting the frame. The bottom of the gas tank can easily stretch it up!

[@LifeOfBurch]

Nice man! Sounds like a solid setup. I was considering the Black Widow header, but it’s just not worth it to me. My ears already ring like crazy after a long trip, so I don’t wanna add more noise just for a couple extra hp. We’ll see if I change my mind after the dyno tune though if there seems to be substantial power left on the table 😅

@@LifeOfBurch Definitely an ear ringer!!! Thanks for the awesome content!!!

[@larifari4371]

@Kent Gabrielson I thought one could brake into the closed loop wirh the wideband2 staying on the bike. In this case you would not need the O2 sensor eliminator from Smart Moto. All the others here seem to ignore this closed loop/O2-sensor problem wich is bit weird to me because the rebel runs almost always in closed loop.

[@TheRebel1100Life]

@@larifari4371 With the new LAF O2 sensors(narrowband) on the Honda Euro 5 bikes what will happen is the widebrand2 will fight back and forth with LAF sensor in the closed loop, so won't be able to adjust to better AFR than 14.7 + - error. I was only able to really adjust 0% throttle all the way through rpm and 80%-100% through rpm. This was the only open loop areas. Also, the Euro 5 LAF sensor use fluctuating voltage to detect issue with LAF sensor, so the old O2 eliminator trick of using a device to simulate constant voltage will trigger a CEL on the Rebel. I wish there was an ECU flash tuner for the Rebel, so many more advantages than a piggy back system. With that said the PC 6 with a little adjusting AFR at 0% throttle makes a world of difference to throttle response.

[@larifari4371]

@@TheRebel1100Life THX, wow, that is extremly interesting! So your WB2 could do effectively nothing but the Power Commander can at least have influence at 80-100 and more importantly 0% throttle all RPM, so engine braking can be really really reduced - did I get this right? This could in fact already explain the "world of difference" you discribe. You're giving me hope man :-)) Well, at least some. I would be extremly grateful if you could post your %- of change values you wrote into your PC6 in the 0-throttle columm. Would also help others who are going serios with the power comander of corse. I will go on searching for a lambda solution wich most likely has to be a flashing as these effin sensor pieces make it so hard to fake them off.

I’ve never looked into Craftride products so I can’t say honestly, but I’ve heard that their seats are high quality for what it’s worth. I personally just got some Burly Brand sliders. They offer much less drop protection than full engine guards, but will still protect the engine and frame in a serious crash. I just don’t like the looks of any engine guards for these things so far, but the Burly Brand sliders are sleek and understated so I like them. I’d like to get engine guards at some point, but I’m waiting for ones that aren’t an eyesore.

[@larifari4371]

Dynojet provides sufficient information to see that the Power Commander for the Rebel 1100 with the map Birch rode has absolutly NO effect on any throttle position lower than 100%. Only in the full throttle mode (ONLY here!) the Power Commander does start at 4500 U/min (NOTHING below!) with some minor changes. The worst thing however is that any changes you might do to the map with the PC in the area lower than 80% throttle will be undone automatically in real time by the closed loop of the rebel. Means the lambda piece detects the fuel enrichment of a altered Power Commander map and compensates for that immidiatly, this way lowering the fueling levels to where the emission laws want them to be (and not where the power is).

That sucks. Seems like a ECU flash is the way to go

[@larifari4371]

@Synthwave89 yep! But I know nobody who does it on the rebel. They hacked the africa twin but the rebel needs different codes. The speed limit can get undone and you can even add rpm and power in the high revs BUT only where the lambda closed loop does not interfere. This is a real bummer. Please post when you find someone who undoes the lambda stuff ( like they did for the AT).

Do you have to get it professionally tuned after installing the power commander?

[@sergeantwombat]

man that headlight cowl is like bighead mode on the old ps2 games lol, but not my bike to care

[@DanielSan-sw9px]

I wonder what fuel performance can i get out of this thing, If so i will buy it.

[@joshstephanie1]

Curious if you think I would get the same results something out the DCT?

[@williamcoulter5462]

I did my DNA filter earlier this year but as I kept the stock exhaust I did not need to adjust anything just do a DCT reset. DNA said if you do both the air and exhaust you would need a power commander as the fueling and timing would be out. I get better throttle response as the engine can now breath better and because I did not change the exhaust I do not have any fueling problems. I have DNA filters on both my DCT 700s and my Rebel 1100 and fit them to my cars when they are available.

[@LifeOfBurch]

That’s awesome! Glad to hear you got such good results with just the filter!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@gsin311]

wait how do you do a dct reset, is that something a dealer has to do. Can honda do a firmware update for dct as well ?

[@jamesthompson7969]

Thanks!

[@LifeOfBurch]

Thank YOU James!! I appreciate your continued support! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@waltswild]

Have you considered hangers for more comfort, I can't stand those low ass bars brother. After an hour I feel it.

[@YoDooDSup]

Is there really no company that offers a tune for the rebel 1100? I.e. send my ECU away to get tuned. Then reinstall?

[@1GiPhoner]

Is this available for the Rebel 300 & 500?

[@Schizo_Milk]

did you ever actually get this tuned/dyno'd?

[@doom3crazy]

How much of what you’re feeling do you think is from the air filter ? Do you think it’s mostly the power commander making those changes ?

[@LifeOfBurch]

It’s hard to say honestly. The increase in smoothness and rideability is for sure the Power Commander, but it’s hard to say how much of the throttle response/power came from the Power Commander vs the air filter.

[@doom3crazy]

@@LifeOfBurch so if i could only afford one…. Air filter first ? Or power command ?

[@LifeOfBurch]

@@doom3crazy Power Commander 100%! That’ll give you the most noticeable improvements for sure.

[@Judgeshred88]

Did you already have the burly brand slammer plus shocks of the bike?? So you have a video review on them😂

[@theimmortalgriffithdavion1592]

OMG i thought you put diesel in your bike when I saw the green handle.

[@GabrielMartinez-vz2bu]

Question? I use the bike on sport mode and manual shifting everytime but is DTC can be a problem drive like that every time?

[@coacoa289]

Great video...

[@reesestudios2404]

i've always wondered what kind of content would be made if he instead owned dirtbikes, anyone else think that he would get those kind of tracks to go riding in winters instead of using snowmobiles? i can see Burch making videos about gapping snowmobiles mid winter

[@LifeOfBurch]

Funny you say that…I’ve been researching ADV bikes and dual sports for the past 3 hours 😅😅😅

[@jorre4478]

This would be a upgrade i might do in the future :D

[@LifeOfBurch]

I would DEFINITELY recommend it!! It seriously transforms the bike! 🙌🏻🤘🏻

[@stevenlane653]

What ferring do you have on the front of your bike?
