My Sc can has arrived but the bike is in the dealers having the quickshifter looked at as it stopped working, can’t wait to fit it, I think it looks and Definetly sounds great from what I’ve heard
Now that does look really good Andy - but wait, I'm confused...you haven't fitted it yet...so that's not your bike? The S1 would have been my choice from SC Project - very well balanced and suits the bike so well...like it's supposed to look like that. David (Moor) commented that the Speed Triple without the underseat cans, reminds him of a "muscular guy with skinny lower body", which is close to how I've always seen it:
Had a weird issue today. When pulling the clutch in for a downshift from second to first (usually coming to an intersection or traffic lights) the engine cuts out. I can restart it easily by pressing the engine start button and everything is back to normal. It happened 3 times today. My bike is on about 1400kms and today is the first time it has happened. Has anyone experienced this? My google search has turned up a similar, but not common, issue with the 765 bikes, but no identification of the cause. I am thinking maybe the fuel? I did go to a different garage which I haven't been to before.
Does it idle normally ? You can carry out a reset by starting the bike and leaving running for 15minutes (I think) without touching the throttle. This resets the ECU for idle etc. may or may not help but could be worth a try...
Yeah idle is fine. Everything seems to run normal other than this issue. I will try the ECU reset thing. That's a neat trick I didn't know about.
The 'Reset Adaption' gets 'diluted' across the many posts about it on the internet, but to the very best of my knowledge...it goes like this: Reset adaption: From cold, start without touching the throttle or any controls. Run for a minimum of 12 minutes after the fan comes on, and the ECU will adapt to the engine. It may not help with Mogwai's problem...but it won't do any harm
i’m not convinced that it’s worth doing on mine with the decat low boy and Triumph map instaled, so money will probably be going on rearsets instead. I’ve Changed up to 45 tooth Renthal rear sprocket too.
Possibly not if you have a specific Triumph map for your configuration...but from what I understand, the first thing that happens after having it done, is wishing you'd done it earlier. We'll see! 45 teeth eh? Time to update you Signature
We booked two hour slots between 10:00 and 12:00 for my RS and my son's MT-10 and will travel cross-country, which should take about 3½ hours...plus ½ hour for fuel and hopefully breakfast...so leaving at 6:00. We also need to head home straight after so won't be able to hang about, even if there is a slot at 12:00 (I think they only take bookings between 9:00 and 13:00). I thought about seeing if I could get a group together, but logistically, it's pretty difficult.
This seems to have done the trick. No cutting out this morning, and I was trying really hard to replicate the same situation. Does anyone know the science or algorithm behind this adaptation? Is it something I should be doing every time I change fuel suppliers?
Firstly, all credit due to @Richard Neale who suggested trying this in the first place...I just refined how it is supposed to be performed My layman's understanding is that your ECU 'learns' by storing the 'adaptation values' read by the various engine sensors to ensure smooth and efficient running. The 'Reset Adaption' (or maybe it's 'Reset Adaptation') returns the values to their default settings and then starts to re-learn, based on what the sensors are reading. After modifying the baffles on my original Arrow exhaust, I found the idle to be lumpy - and performing the reset smoothed everything out again. I wouldn't expect you to have to do this after changing fuel suppliers...and also believe that after you've run a few more litres of fuel through the system, the ECU will adapt anyway. Great that your bike is running OK now
Definitely a huge amount of thanks to @Richard Neale ! If you ever find yourself in Melbourne, Australia I will buy you a drink!
It was without baffles. I just installed the insert and went for a test ride. Certainly more neighbor friendly and OK for my dog's ears now. I have highly disappointed some mates by installing the DB Killer. I pointed out, it is only minutes to take out for the odd weekend ride in the twisty rural roads. From a handling front; hard to tell. Mainly commuting zones until Saturday. In the weekend I will ride some good sweeping bends. Will take the tools/tape , adjust sag to ensure to am still balanced, adjust rebound compression etc.. PS For the keen eyed, the dog picture was on my 2016 R.
Now there's an image that you don't see too often. Brilliant What we need to see is a photo of your dog hanging (humanely of course) from your weighing scales, so that we can determine the counter effect on the handling Your bike looks amazing - and the exhaust matches in so well! Glad to know that your initial noise report was based on baffle being out...because yes, it's expectedly noisy like that (but exciting all the same). One tip that I picked up for all AR owners - if you take the baffle out, re-fit the retaining screw. I understand that expansion and contraction can cause the hole and the internal thread to misalign very slightly, which may make it difficult to re-insert the screw at a later date. Maybe it's something that effects earlier designs, but it does no harm to play safe.
