You are going to loose low end with those mods. It has to do with back pressure and you just opened up the exhaust a lot. It probably is running really rich. I would suggest a pcIII and gears should fix your low end problems.

 

Sounds like he already has a power commander from the last line....

While you will lose low end you should at least have the bike dyno mapped to get things where they need to be. :thumbup

 

Did you have the bike tuned after you added the slip on and gutted the cat?

If not, then get that taken care of and if you still are lacking more low end power than what is normal, we'll go from there.

I don't touch the buttons on my PCIII. Take it to a shop and get a full tune or at the very least download the appropriate map from the PC website.

 

pcIII

I didnt have the bike dyno ran after the mods. My father in laws bike doesnt have a pc and other than the slip on its stock. His bike just seems so smooth from the time I hit the throttle to the time I let off. I guess I gotta save up or maybe I could trade some of my stock parts or aftermarket parts for a pcIII. Anyone interested? lol. I got pipes, mirrors, graves case covers(both sides), and stock tail light. Lmk if anyone has any good ideas.

every bike is different. A custom tune with a PCIII and you will see a big difference.

 

I think im gonna go ahead and do the -1 up front. Do you think I need to get the pcIII. I was told with the scorpion slip ons, it would help performance without a tune, but then I had to go and gut the cat and do a smog block off. Im guessing them two things meant all the difference.

 

If you gutted the cat,and slipons, yes you probably need the pc3.

 

get a pcIII. Its worth every penny. Then just download a map from there site. 03`s have loads more torque down low so to even it up a bit you could drop a tooth up front.

 

I'm having some things added to my bike also, smog plates, velocity stacks, pcIII, baffled cans, and gutted cat. I guess my question is with all that most would still get a custom dyno tune and drop one tooth in the front? And if I drop 1 tooth can I still use my stock chain?

you can you use the stock chain as long it's still in good condition. you need 16tooth sprocket 530 pitch to be used. your speedo will be off though. so you might want to look into a speedo healer. while your add it go ahead and disconnect the exup valve and wire it open. now go get your custom tune and whatch your R1 rip.

 

how bad is it gonna throw my speed off going to a 16t?

 

Probably 10-15% so on top of the 8% off from stock you could be as much as 20% off. Get the healer. Also it will save you from putting "ghost" miles on the bike.

 

ok. only other question I have is about the map ill need. Like I said before, I have the y pipe gutted, the scorpion slip ons and smog block off. Im gonna try n do some trading for a pc3 cuz of money issues right now, but id like to know exactly what map I need when I get the pc3 installed. Thanks for the help guys

 

I would get a PCiii and either a custom or downloaded tune and then do gears, I would do either -1 in the front or + 2 in the rear

 

shoulda got a 02 or 03 R1 their the BEST!!!! lol

 

It's "they are" and :no

 

drop one in the front and you'll get the same thing from the 04-08

 

ok so he said the r1 his dad has the 03 is stock with a exception of the slip on. what if you just go down 1 in front on the 03, do a full exhaust maybe lets say arata, or yoshi, and get a map. or even just keep the slip on with the exup removed, and get a nice map for it or even custom map it. I still say the 03 will smoke it. not on the top end probably being the 04 has 180 hp. but low end for sure. maybe even a quarter mile race as well. I'd be close possibly

 

That would be good and all, but my father in law is the one with the 03 and I have the 04. They are telling me to go down one tooth on my 04, get my 04 mapped, and I should be able to take him.

 

I bet if you have it the way your 04 sits now but do a power commander with a nice tune on it you should get him. get the launch down good, and im sure you'll have no problem.
