My uncle is getting soft.

I took my bike to get de-restricted and tuned. We used woolich tuning software. Baseline we did 3 runs and got 161hp, 163hp and 164hp with 84ft.lbs. on the 3rd run. The third run sent the bike into limp mode. We learned that it was because we didn't hook the ECU up and disable the front wheel speed sensor fault code. . The tuning shop had ordered a bench flashing harness so the ECU had to be removed from the bike to connect it to the computer. The diagnostic reset only works with the ECU in the bike. So we had to, 1. idle the bike for 30 sec or more, 2. take the bike out and ride it around at over 25mph for 5-10 min 3 shut it off and repeat 3 times. Riding the bike over 25mph for 5 minutes at a time is a lot harder than it sounds in Tucson. . Did I mention it was 99° at noon today? Finally got the fault codes cleared and back on the dyno and we were able to start the tuning. Took the throttle valve restrictions out and ran it. It gained 5hp and the A/F reading was spiking lean at 10k rpms . So the tuner kept adding fuel until it started losing power but the lean spike at 10k was still there. Here is where it really exceeded my comprehension level. He said it was running so rich the dynos A/F reader was seeing it as lean . He pulled fuel and it started making power. He got it up to 184hp 93 ft.lbs safely. Then we started talking about bumping the redline 500rpms. I told him I was pretty sure woolich had done it. We decided we trusted woolich. So we decided to send it and try 13,000rpms. I attached the video of the bikes first time revving to 13,000rpms. The bike made 209 hp 96ft.lbs. without changing the timing or fueling. The tuner reached out to Anthony (WR NA) who reached out to woolich to see how aggressive they were running the timing on the H2 SX SE they tuned. After confirming that they had successfully been more aggressive with the timing we decided to get a little more aggressive. The bike made 216hp and 99ft.lbs. We then did 4 back to back runs. Runs 1 and 2 were 216hp then run 3 was 206 run 4 was 203. Since the bike was pulling power as it got hotter we decided to back the timing down a little to be safer. My tune is a little on the aggressive side but the tuner and I both feel it is safe. My final setup resulted in 213hp and 97ft.lbs. after backing it down. So we added 49hp and 13ft.lbs. from a filter swap and tune. The tuner even took the time to help me dial in my suspension which was awesome. It is a totally different monster. I didn't really get a chance to push it because it was dark when I left. Night time along the 45 mile ride home means more drunks, animals and cops. But I did play with it as little. My first impressions of the bike when I first got it I thought the bike didn't really have the violent acceleration you'd expect. It was still fast but very refined and smooth. Now at lower rpms and throttle input the bike feels just as refined and smooth but it feels like there is less resistance working against it. Kind of like pushing a box across the ground vs pushing a box around that's sitting on a skateboard. But at full throttle holy cow it has some vicious acceleration. It's violent like the bike is trying to accelerate so fast the rider flys of the back. I love it! I did get a couple graphs, a base line vs final tune and the 216hp graph vs my old 174hp zx10r (air filter, 2/3rds exhaust, de-restricted, tuned) for comparison.

I see we are going to get along just fine.

Ever since Honda brought out the highlighter yellow, the wife has been drooling over it. And her having one is no fun if I don't have one too... so for our 1 yr wedding anniversary, we got some twin toys! Also, where can I get some Ohio Riders decals? The wife wants a hot pink one.

I’m pretty sure I have a couple hot pink ones. PM me your address.

I’ll PM it to you as soon as I get back to my computer.

Ravenna is a long way from HH. has the snow melted yet? I do not get north of I70 very often but if you are down south give a shout. We are posting rides and events on AIO all year so keep an eye over here.http://advrider.com/index.php?threads/adventure-in-ohio.28732/

Ok, ban postponed. That is where I went to school.

These have been sold to a local hooligan.

^^that's a good friggin deal then

Lol no

Ditto to all the great compliments. Good luck on the next chapter.

Fuck Steve, give it to someone else. He already won the ban contest this month. Only one win per month.

It's been a pleasure, I needed to hit you up for a replacement quick shifter.

It needs blinky lights.

Are Asians even allowed to make height related stabs? ?

Here you go

To be clear, you bought them with 29k and 149k.

I could have. Figure that out all by yourself?

I thought I would let you know that TJ will be handling the forum going forward, he is great and will be able to help you out.
