I know that its been discussed before but, I just ordered a KN air filter for my 1125 when I get it will the ecm add enough fuel to compensate for the extra air or am I going to have to manually change the afv's | ||

How do you manually change the AFV? | ||
| Dvy_bby9 |
You should be fine. | ||

That's what the O2 sensors are for. The stock ECM has enough adjustability in it's mapping to compensate for that change. | ||

Thank you that was exactly what I was looking for I know with out fuel modds its prob best not to do an exhaust and the filter but wasn't sure if there was enough range to do just the filter | ||

Just a FYI, the AFV's look like they will range from 75 to 140 with a maximum of 25 for a spread before they report an error. An AFV of 125/100 will show a fault, or any combination thereof. | ||

Is there any notisable advantages with just doing the filter fuel economy, power top or bottom end? | ||

Not that I've experienced, but I've had it on since the 2nd week (1st service) and never really used the stock filter. Power, mine has a dip around 9k rpm that most bikes don't and I think the K&N might be the cause of it, but I haven't proven it yet. Others have said there's as much as a 5 hp gain, but I don't think so personally. I've been known to be wrong before though. | ||

you ought to search around... theres a few dyno sheets showing loss of power with a K&N... I believe i read somewhere that race teams used a stock air filter....just something i have been seeing in my searches of this forum. FYI there's a ton of info on here, just gotta sift through some stuff to find it. | ||

Powerloss with a K&N When this happens, then the bike is already running lean, adding the K&N will lean the bike out more en wil loose power then. There is no other explaination for this. | ||

I am not adding the K&N until I fit the EBR pump gas race ECM which I hope to do this weekend (and remove the baffle from my Remus can.) I wont take the risk of the engine running lean and do not believe that the AFV has the scope to cope with both the K&N and a less restrictive exhaust than standard - but this is only my opinion and no doubt others will tell me I am wrong. The EBR race exhaust has had to be put on hold for a while which is a shame but the recession forces this action | ||
| D_adams |
Didn't they tell you the recession is over? | ||
| Dirty_john |
The recession in the UK is far from over, no matter what the incompetent,corrupt, self serving politicians are coming out with now we have a general election to look forward to, | ||

Sorry, that was meant to be "tongue-in-cheek" sarcasm. | ||
