  1. Well I am no longer using the bike to go to work, it’s around 40 here (Qc) every morning, and most of the time it’s raining these days... One last ride, two if I’m lucky...it’s sad
  2. So would you say it does worth the money spent? I won’t have my ecu back from 2wdw until next week, international shipping is loooonnnnggg...
  3. This is awesome! I am actually working for stuff going in this hotel. (Alot of hours, paying farkles for the bike!!) It is one of a kind project, made in Quebec, Canada!
  4. Did you replace the outlet for a 2" while at it? It also helps a bit to improve the sound.
  5. You’ve mentioned it but I want with 2wdw for the flashtune’s quickshifter and of course all the good reviews here.
  6. I’d like to have an exhaust but since cops are totaly retarded about noise in Quebec, I won’t take this risk...but damn you guys make me jealous.
  7. Where you send it? I need at least 3days of rain in forecast before I’m willing to do without. 2WDW, and I’m from Canada. Lucky you if it only takes 3 days...I just lost my bike for at least 8-10days. I recall being told that it was a 4hp gain at the peak and 6hp in the midrange. But I don't see that much midrange gain in the published dyno chart. It looks more like 3hp. That is for the combination of their tuning AND removing the foam. The peak gain is a solid 4hp at the wheel. Well thank you all, I will remove the foam for sure!
  8. Removed and mailed my ecu, installed new air filter and now thinking about removing that foam under the gas tank. Does it really change something?
  9. Yes I know, I forgot to mention I did order some adapter as well. https://www.amazon.ca/Carbon-Indicator-Signal-Adapter-Motorcycle/dp/B07FBD6N5K/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1537038510&sr=8-8&keywords=yamaha+adapter+turn+signal I don’t know how these will turn out (fitment) but I’ll figure something out if it doesn’t fit right away. Also, why don’t you have running light/blinker? Is’nt the bike suppose to be like that (I don’t know since I bought mine with aftermarket blinkers already, but it has running/blinking feature)
  10. Anybody tried these? I ordered it, I have motodynamic flushmount installed and it’s way far from bright. I like that it’s white as running light and switch amber when blinking. It says it fits mt-09, will it fit a tracer? All other turn signals are good for both but this one only write about mt-09 https://www.amazon.ca/Universal-Brightness-Motorcycle-Kawasaki-CBR1000/dp/B0757JKRST/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1537037545&sr=8-4&keywords=Bsk&th=1
  11. I did it...I paid 2wheeldynoworks, can’t wait to have my ecu flashed. Well, I gotta get it out and ship it first!
  12. It’s more complicated than just drilling holes in the exhaust, but the result is very nice considering it’s free (if you can weld)
  13. What do you do for living? Seriously lol
  14. If I remember correctly, 13nm is the value in the service manual. Edit: 12nm, my torque wrench starts at 13nm, that’s where i got confused.
  15. Like you said it won’t affect anything but be careful not to destroy the stud filet while forcing the flange.
  16. I would not recommend antiseize because of the extreme heat. Like I said my bike has 16000kms and I had no issue removing the nuts, and if you use proper torque (20nm) it should come off pretty easy next time as well.
  17. Sorry about my misinformation, I agree that if it is a different headers going back there, new gaskets. I guess I did not need to replace because I used the same headers/shape and it went back in same spot.
  18. Yep 20NM for headers nuts and the 2 bolts near the center stand. Put the bike on side stand and just drop the center stand when you need to make the « twist » move (you will understand) My bike has 16000kms and I did not need to replace gaskets.
  19. Should not take more than 1 hour for sure, I removed my exhaust in about 20mins alone including the time it took to set up tools.
  20. You should use separated pipe clamp on each fork and point it out so it clear the fender. Something like that but bigger https://m.grainger.com/mobile/product/CADDY-Cushioned-Pipe-Clamp-1RVC3
