In all seriousness...
Sadly, it's well documented that some TDM900's are much less than tractable in low to mid range RPM.
However, it has been proven that the TDM900 can be tuned to be a very tractable machine using one of several methods.
Thankfully, you do have options available for the TDM900 to remedy the situation.
Choose which one suits your budget and/or abilities:
- make inlet and exhaust modifications, that are likely in some cases to require further tuning. e.g. after-market exhaust and filter. Edit: and the airbox mod.
. (In many cases you're well on your way going this route.)
- retune with very particular attention to throttle body vacuums and offset of the TPS, progressively retuning for optimum.
. (for capable purists)
- PCIII add-on, and pay for someone wise and experienced with a dynamometer.
. (cashed up enough to throw some money at it)
- Dobeck/Techlusion add-on, and tune as you would a carburettor (simple enough for DIY).
. (
coz I did it my way)
- apply a somewhat more band-aid method by tricking one of the sensor to cause a richer A/F.
. (snake oil is good for ya)
- any combination of the above.
. (no two bikes are the same and everyone loves farkles)
Personally I can't see any reason why someone should have to
just live with it if it is an issue for them.
Viva la revolution.
