    Hi folks.. Got hold of Ivan at Ivan's Performance Products. Sent my ECU to him, got it back within a week, installed a Power Commander and followed his instructions. Ivan was helpful over the phone and we got the setup dialled in. Problem solved. Throttle hesitation is gone, and power has...

    Butterflies and Throttle Hesitation

    Hi guys.. My 2006 FZ1 now has Graves stacks, CopperDawgs flies and Hindle exhaust, with emissions stuff blocked off. The mods helped. My dyno tuner got another 15 hp out of the bike. That said, the bike now has a new throttle hesitation. Rolling the throttle from closed back to open...

    Great spring luck with the 2006 FZ1. Over the winter, I did the airbox cutout, K&N filter, pollution control alterations, Graves velocity stacks, Copperdawgs flies and full Hindle exhaust. My dyno guy got 136 horsepower out of it yesterday. That's quite a leap from the 121 horsepower I...

    Hey thanks for that. I dropped to 15 teeth on the front sprocket and liked the difference. It was encouraging enough to make me consider spending money on full exhaust and pollution control removal. There may be a way to be happy here after all..

    Stock Exhaust vs Hindle Full System

    Hmm... My dyno tuner guy says that power commanders aren't necessary for Gen II FZ1s. He says anything a power commander can do, he can do, with his access to the stock PCU. Is this possible? I've spent a lot of power commander money over the last decade...

    Stock Exhaust vs Hindle Full System

    Apparently it was just the 2006 model. Believe me, it had to be fixed. Pauses and backfires in corners when you're playing with traction limits are totally not cool. Just fine now it's been reprogrammed..

    Stock Exhaust vs Hindle Full System

    Thanks for the reply. Maybe the flash will get me through the winter. We have the odd rideable day here in Vancouver. Save money now, start the rest of the game in the spring..

    Stock Exhaust vs Hindle Full System

    Hi folks.. Just picked up a 2006 FZ1 that came with a short Yoshimura slip on. The bike has the notorious fuel injection on/off glitch, and the slip on made it worse, causing the bike to run lean and backfire. I'm arranging to have the ECU flash done, but have to wait a bit. The bike came...
