My '09 is smooth as silk, apart from what I'd describe as a slight flat spot around 1800 rpm which is noticeable when in traffic or riding slowly....

Anyone had the same and any ideas?


O.C.

Does the bike have an aftermarket pipe fitted or is it the standard spud launcher  ?
BE KIND...

Got a Remus Okami with the baffle in...

Think I'll be putting the original on in the morning then... Watch this space.  :rolleyes:

Lonewolf

The original isn't that bad looking with the panniers on.

Bryn

Panniers are always on anyway... About to do the exchange so will see if it sorts it  :yes:

O.C.

let us know if your 'adjustments' improve things  :yes:

The standard one is now back on... have to nip out on it in around an hour, so will report   :smiley:

Think the slight fluffiness at  1800 rpm has gone..... so I'm going to stick with the spud launcher.... just a pity its not a couple of inches shorter  :wink:

On reflection I reckon the butterfly removal and the remap is the cause of it

Get one from a Mk 2 - they are shorter.
I actually have one in my garage since I put a Beowulf on.
The later you brake the longer you go fast.

Didn't know the Mk2 was shorter... that's got me thinking  :laugh:

You can cut the spud launcher down you know, there is a video somewhere of exactly how to do it, best you have access to a mig welder though.

Seen that myself somewhere..... if I just explain..... tried to cut a bit of plastic with a stanley knife in the garage last night.... anyway... after about 20 minutes I managed to stop my finger bleeding.... so I couldn't be let loose with a mig welder.... all my fillings would be toast   :grin:
