Hi Guys,
I could do with some advice please as Ive reached a cross roads I feel with the current set up.
Bought a 2012 registered TDM900 non abs las year. I was aware that it had had a few mods done but having looked here I didn't think it was anything that couldn't be fixed.
Main issue was the low speed fuelling and snatchiness, The bike is fitted with a 2 into 1 downpipe set and has an MTC single can on. The centre stand is still on so everything either custom made to fit or
the system was already suitable from something else.
At low speed it was nigh on was unrideable, from various forums I have now done the airbbox flap mod to de-activate it made no difference, I have removed the K&N filter on the advice of a mechanic,( i.e. more air means even weaker running) and replaced with stock, big improvement,
I have chopped the top of the airbox to open it up. slight improvement, and I have been through the Co2 range top to to bottom and I cannot get anywhere near consistent smooth low end running?
I am at the stage where now
I either have the existing set up dyno'd to try and make it work, mucho spondoolie
I revert back to 2 - 2 with a matched set of cans and hope ill be able to find a co2 setting that works for that,
I revert back to 2 - 2 with standard cans and hope to be able to fix, mucho spondoolie...........
or i sell the damned thing off and look for something else.
I love the bike absolutely above 5k but you have to be able to get out to somewhere to use up there it and getting out to that place with the engine jumping out of the frame isn't at all pleasant. As an overrider to that I ride and have done for the last 40 years BMW boxers, i'm used to agricultural! Ive had three 650 thumpers, I do snatchy!!! but this has been worse than anything I have ever ridden. Currently its getting to be just about acceptable, but just about isn't doing it.
Is the 2 into 1 the fatal flaw?
Is it that i can't just get enough AFR with the dash CO2 adjustment but might with a re-map?
does it sound it could be electrical perhaps, sound familiar to anyone?
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any suggestions and advice gratefully received and considered
Thanks
