100% noticed sound and power!

[@LifeWellRidden]

And literally addicting!! Oh man it’s so hard not to be wide open everywhere 🤣

[@Lifeofrejkjaer]

One does not stop upgrading his 690 smc r! He must continue, at all costs!

[@LifeWellRidden]

Oh it will continue 🤣

[@C0ltxx45]

Hell yes! I’m happy for you man this was my favorite mod that I’ve done. Also, don’t worry about the filter oil on the bottom of the seat. Been almost a year since I did mine and it’s still there for me too. It’s just a tight fit with that big ass filter.

[@LifeWellRidden]

Such a good mod!! Hands down the best so far hahah and yeah the sticky icky will probably be there for the life of the bike 🤣

[@C0ltxx45]

@@LifeWellRiddenlmao for sure. What map are you running on the bike, 1 or 2? I’ve been playing with both and can’t really decide if there is a difference.. I’m not sure lol

[@LifeWellRidden]

@@C0ltxx45 I've stuck with 2, not sure why haha but I dont think they make a diufference once you have a PCV and tune? I could be wrong but the only thing that really affects the bike is Traction on/off.. that makes it fun haha

[@C0ltxx45]

@@LifeWellRidden Good to know! I’ve stuck with 2 as well but really didn’t have a reason why lmao. And agreed, traction control gets turned off every time I hop on the bike lol

[@goatsmoke597]

I’m about to do the deed, I’m also going to do the autotune 02. Stoked!

[@LifeWellRidden]

You're gunna love it!! It's such a difference and the first time you hear the induction sound... awww you gunna fall in love!

[@jasunto]

Just got the PC6, RP SAS/Canister delete, and RP intake ordered to go with my arrow slip on. Should be here Tuesday. This should hold me over and eventually get the tekmo blued titanium header, maybe from a black friday or cyber monday sale.

[@LifeWellRidden]

That's one heck of a setup you got going! I was looking at the Tekmo header too.. wonder if there is a difference in power over stock??

[@chaunster]

I usually do the following. Gears, exhaust, springs, seat, intake, tune,

[@LifeWellRidden]

That’s a damn good way stepping things up, what do you gear at?

[@GUNSnDOZES]

What’s up bro! Great video, I’m really considering the sas delete too every tutorial helps man.

[@LifeWellRidden]

If your doing the intake, I would do the SAS, it gets rid of sooo much extra stuff haha

[@jeffs5129]

@@LifeWellRidden What is SAS?

[@LifeWellRidden]

@@jeffs5129 it’s the canister delete system (Evap Recover System) and removes a ton of lines and a giant can hanging from the throttle side of the motor, my opinion it’s worth it just to get all that out of the way

[@jeffs5129]

It sounds like it would be worthwhile. Thanks!@@LifeWellRidden

[@carloscegelski4914]

Done with power mods to my 700sm. Sas, intake, power commander, tekmo header, arrow exhaust. Id like to get it dyno’d tho. Glad it went well for you, always a bit of satisfaction when you start it and no check engine light

[@LifeWellRidden]

Oh hell yeah we’re about the same (minus the header) and would love to see the power numbers! Yeah that is a great feeling.. always a worry hahaha

[@MiamiJato]

yup, same exact mods here too...

[@22smcrrider96]

Glad I'm not the only one that 2 and a half days to put that stuff on. The SAS delete was a bit more of a pain than I expected!

[@LifeWellRidden]

It really was! The instructions weren’t the best but the hardest part was the damn fuel line thing..

[@22smcrrider96]

@@LifeWellRidden bro mine still leaks a lil bit of gas if I fill it all way to top. Not 100% what I did wrong but my solution is not fill it too top 🤷🤣

[@LifeWellRidden]

@@22smcrrider96 hahah I remember taking off that huge rubber piece, throwing it in the garage floor and with seconds being like why does it smell like fuel?? And dumping out so much.. didn’t realize how much fuel that actually held haha

[@Mitchcay]

Did you figure out the gap you had on the throttle body? I've received mine today and installed it and seem to have some kind of small gap on the bottom part of the boot on the throttle body but everything else is all aligned perfect.

[@LifeWellRidden]

SAME ISSUE!! I let Rottweiler know to extend the tube by another 1/2" for future kits BUT I had to slide the top (plate side) down to the edge and clamp in on tight to get it to slide onto the Throttle body.. It took me another hour or so just to get it to work, it was a lot of bending, tweeking to get it on there

[@kalebellis9259]

Planning on doing the ROT intake, power commander and SAS delete this summer. My bike currently vibrates WAY more than it should. “If I was a woman, man I’d love riding your bike” is what my old man said about it. He has a 701 and it’s butter to ride. Do you think with the PCV and all that it would smooth out the bike? Thanks! Nice work

[@LifeWellRidden]

Hahahah 🤣🤣 oh man that’s hilarious! But I’m not sure why you would have more vibration then a 701.. I’m not sure if after market mods would do anything to help that out. Now I’m no expert or certified in anything but stupidity but I would get it checked first to make sure there are no internal issues. If you have an existing problem and throw more power/fuel at it, things usually go caBOOM haha

[@kalebellis9259]

@@LifeWellRidden I might have to take it in. I like doing stuff myself but forums and stuff myself to try and fix this isn’t working so far. Love the vids man

[@LifeWellRidden]

@@kalebellis9259 a second opinion never hurts, I would make sure it’s running in tip top shape before you start modifying anything, just my opinion and no shame in that haha These LC4’s are known to eat a little oil and some people who have commented on the channel have gone through motors in the first 2k miles because of oil starvation, be safe!

[@alex.crf450r]

but it goes faster" stop worrying. A bike is an investment and something which people want to change, if they dont? So be it, but people want to stand out, be them selves and represent themselves through their 2 wheelied machine. So dont feel bad that you want to keep going, feel good that you're setting yourself apart from the rest and youre making yourself stand out and look different. Thats what the Swedish supermoto and graphics brand "Bold." is all about, and thats why i'm going to deck my 450 in their beautiful products lol Bike looks great mate, enjoy it ❤‍🔥

[@LifeWellRidden]

Beautifully said!! I appreciate the love and damn that was good! I’ll have to look into the “Bold” brand to see what they have.. I would love to see what you put on your 450!

[@alex.crf450r]

@@LifeWellRidden Thanks bro, hopefully gonna do a series on here for YT

[@adventureswithkatem]

Does your seat touch your air filter?

[@LifeWellRidden]

Yupp and leaves a sticky patch haha

[@JRSWANDOG68]

Did you add a power commander with pipe and intake? Thanks!

[@LifeWellRidden]

Yes I did! PCV with a Rottweiler tune on there

[@jeffs5129]

How much difference did they each make? I just ordered mine but haven't installed them yet @@LifeWellRidden

[@LifeWellRidden]

@@jeffs5129 I would consider it a pretty big difference, it seems to have livened the bike up a bit and you notice (or at least I do) more power/tq in the low to mid range

[@jeffs5129]

Sounds good, it definitely needs more low end power. Stock its really weak@@LifeWellRidden

[@LifeWellRidden]

@@jeffs5129 it does help a ton, when I did the dyno tuning video, they noticed the low end of the map could use some improvement (but much better than stock) while the top end was nearly perfect.. I guess that’s what you get with a can tune from Rottweiler?? Best results would be the mods/PC/custom dyno tune and you would have the best damn machine haha

[@TheBuckHustler]

Which handguards do you have?Thx

[@LifeWellRidden]

Just released a video about them! -kzbin.info/www/bejne/npibpqearNCCoZY

[@MiamiJato]

I told you your gonna love it, now put a 15 tooth sprocket in the front and a 44 in the rear and enjoy power wheelies all day......

[@LifeWellRidden]

Ohhhh boy.. I’m tempted hahah but what does that do to your top speed? Or do you even notice? Haha

[@callummarshall7032]

Where you get those mirrors ? Will thet fit the 701

[@LifeWellRidden]

They probably won’t fit the factory guards but the whole setup to make it work is: Zeta Barkbusters in orange, you can find them on Amazon - Zeta PRO Armor Hand Guard Orange... www.amazon.com/dp/B012UMIB3S?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share Then the guards have integrated turn signals that you have to wire into the factory turn signals - Zeta XC Flasher BLACK Hand... www.amazon.com/dp/B001LV0NKE?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share And you MUST get the “U” bar mount brackets or they will not work - www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/zeta-u-clamp-handguard-handlebar-clamp-kit?gclid=CjwKCAjwl6OiBhA2EiwAuUwWZVZxmiifuvFZSkXtle2Ic4eQ3BKYJub8Blh5X3oVg8FYCnSzT_T9MxoC2i4QAvD_BwE And FINALLY you have the mirrors, which are crap but look cool, you basically take the same bolt for the hand guards and slap them on with a nut to hold - PowerMadd 34289 Star Series /... www.amazon.com/dp/B00E62MUYM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share You would not be able to run these on the factory guards unless you drilled some holes, at least from what I remember.. but it’s a whole kit!

[@callummarshall7032]

@@LifeWellRidden thanks i appreciate it

[@con10r46]

I know you have different Handguard but does the asv short levers fit with the standard handguards?

[@LifeWellRidden]

I believe they do.. believe.. but I had to order new clutch side hardest from ASV to fit because I DON’T have the factory hand guards. I bought them from Rottweiler and reading the website, you can use with factory hand guard setup!

[@con10r46]

@@LifeWellRidden great man thanks, quick question on the power commander you had to use a fuel dongle for it to work right?

[@LifeWellRidden]

@@con10r46 no you don’t necessarily need a fuel dongle to make it work right. Rottweiler usually includes them for free, you just have to buy the nut that fits on the header to replace the o2 sensor so it’s worth it in my opinion haha
