    I hope they haven't wiped your ECU Flash with an updated Yamaha one!

    Changing the CO settings in the DIAG menu

    My 2015 model has just had it's 6k mile service and it feels anything but smooth after! I've checked the CO settings and they are set to 14 so going by this thread it should feel great! I've lowered it to 10, felt much better and also tried it on 0. It's running with an akra (baffle out). I...

    Real world fuel tank range

    I usually get the flashing around 115-120miles I then generally fill her up at around 25+miles(below 30) in the reserve. The last 2 tanks have been a little usual because the ave mpg has been rising as the bike beds in but the low reserve flashing has come on sooner?! A bit weird, because when I...

    Power is amazing after break in!!

    This is my 4th new bike. I'm usually careful the first 100 miles mainly because of the tyres, after that I have 2 rules. 1. Don't red line it. 2. Don't ride for long periods at the same revs. That's it, no need to over complicate things.

    Worried

    I went from a 70hp ER6n as a first bike to an 160hp S1000r.... it'a all about what's between your ears. You're the one controlling the throttle etc like others have said. Take is steady, experiment by all means giving little bits of throttle here and there, take your time to get use to the bike...

    re screen

    Thinking about a screen myself, not sure they really do that much? To deflect some of the wind would be nice because you hit 100+ and it feels like you're going to be blown off the bike. I've not looked at every screen on the market, just the ones i've seen look naff, with only the yam original...

    how much are you paying for 600 mile service?

    You're a lot luckier than most Derek. I got so much thrown in with my bike that I was happy to pay a little but i wouldn't have been happy if he forced me to pay the original £99.

    First Service Cost

    The FREE labour was something Yamaha were offering, that has now finished so dealers are starting to charge. Anything from £100 to £140 for 1.5 hrs labour with £35 being consumables like oil etc seems to be the norm. If you look in your manual the mention of the free labour has been blanked out...

    how much are you paying for 600 mile service?

    Mines booked in for this coming Monday. Had an original quote of £99 which seems to fit in with most other prices mentioned on here. Well after a little chat via email I've managed to get it labour free and so should be about £35. In with that price they are going to set up the sag and rebound...

    Baffles out

    It doesn't usually only after market pipes come with removable baffles.

    hi from worcestershire

    That's not right at all! I part exchanged my bike, put the rest on PCP @£54pcm and picked the bike up a couple of weeks later with the free akra exhaust system fitted and lots of other upgrades/extras.

    Baffles out

    Picked the bike up, road it home, took the baffle out. It's somewhere in the shed gathering dust now. I also live in a quiet cul de sac, leaving for working around 8:15am....I try to be respectful and keep the rev as low as possible while I'm riding through neighboring streets. Have to say the...

    *****aftermarket ecu flash*****

    I've not got a PCV map for my bike but wasn't a dynojet map mentioned which sounds like a generic MT-09 map set up for your type of exhaust fitted? would that not be similar to the PCV giving me a performance gain?

    *****aftermarket ecu flash*****

    OK I'm a little confused now, maybe the thread got crossed over with other chat. I've read different maps being installed on the ECU, like a PCV which I think you did TT? or there was another website which list several maps depending what pipe you have. I seem some picture posted of BHP figures...

    *****aftermarket ecu flash*****

    Read 50 pages so far, my eyes are hurting! Couple of questions. Does the flash effect the MPG? I ask because my bike is mainly a commute bike but I do go for rides in the winter when my summer bike is under cover. My bike is 2015 ABS model with Akra exhaust, it's not been run in yet. I'll...
