Installed the K&N pod filter so the dyno guys didn't have to strip the whole bike down.

Rode to work today and OH BOY she's not doing so well. I knew there would be some difference but not this much. I can't go over about 1/5 throttle without it bogging down.

Should the difference be this extreme? I'm not entirely sure I'll be able to go 110kph on the highway. Which is a little scary.

Once it get's to the dyno all is well. But until then...

Dude I've read about this before... on a stock bike that is.

RacerX runs a pod, but his bike is tuned. The standard airbox is not only designed to control the air that goes in, but is tuned... it's all about harmonics and stuff

What jetting/shimming have you done? You've opened up the exhaust and the intake massively, now new need to add the fuel!

Felix

 

[CoinSlot]

You and your harmonics!

Needles are shimmed. The Jet Kit goes on tomorrow on the dyno.

So I just have to suck it up? Or wrap the pod in tape to close off some airflow? Bah!

 

[Felix]

Well it's best to run lean on air not fuel isn't it? So you could experiment with shutting off some of the pod?!?!

You riding down by yourself tomorrow?

Felix

 

[CoinSlot]

Yep heading down early in the morning. Might have to get up a bit earlier and do some experiments on the bike.

 

[Felix]

Well I'm not doing anything if you need a support crew... Wonder if they'd put the Dr on the Dyno for me

You have a bike trailer yeah? This could save me the "can't make it to 100kph" problem.

Fuel money + lunch on me?

 

[Felix]

I do have a bike trailer! However I don't have a car with towbar! Hahah... gf has the car with towbar Otherwise I'd say for sure.

Could try and hitch the trailer up to the Dr I guess... it's got the torque!

Yes Coin, the pod does make THAT big of a difference... It's already sorted, but now ya know...
