Well I finally cracked Yamahas code and engaged my 02 into Pro Race Mode. Apparently its not just meant for pro racers. I did some digging and found out all I needed to do was connect a few "unhooked" electrical connectors under the seat and unplug another one and and instant 50hp!! :rock

Has anyone else out there figured this out on their R1s? I wonder if its the same procedure on the 04+ models??

If anyone is interested how I did it in more detail just let me know here in this thread and Ill post a detailed how to.

Thats most likely why. I'll start writing the how to tonight. In the meantime I'll wait to hear if anyone else is wanting to know how to do this.

On a side note: I might be buying a toggle switch to turn it on/off on the fly so I dont have to keep unscrewing my seat to turn it on/off. This extra 50hp should allow me to do 6th gear sitdowns!!

I can only assume that this is NOT only for FI bikes. My friend has a 99 and has activated this as well. He only kept it plugged in for short time because his motor is high in KMS and it was apparently too much stress on the motor. After spinning 3 seperate muffler bearings, he said screw it and put it back to stock.

Cmon bro.
Everyone knows that 50 hp can only be had by properly expansion porting your cyl. head.
But if this is really true then hook us up so we can get the 250 hp we so desperately need. :thumbup

He was being generous with the 50hp rating

I know for the 06 LE it's up-up-down-down-left-right-left-right-B-A.
yeah but you have to have a PCIII with a USB connection or it won't work

Ummm, OK. Add one of those Ebay "chips" and you'll get 100HP. Why didn't someone tell the AMA tems years ago. They would have saved a ton of money on the work they do to get the 200HP they have now:whtfu:

The factory teams have it enabled. This is something that is part of all R1's the factory dont want us to know about. The bike is an animal once it has been activated. :secret:
