I've had a black widow on my bike for about 2 months now and I can honestly say it has changed the feel of the bike, definitely recommend them for any bike.

Brilliant review and comparison to stock. You left nothing unanswered. And wow, the new exhaust note is awesome. I heard some popping when you rev'd it. Have you since installed a fuel controller to enrich the mixture to handle the freer flow? Probably some power left to tap that way.

Hi, I have a couple of questions. Do you need to remap the fueling after changing the exhaust ? My second question is can I cut off the original Exhaust just after the lambda sonda, and put an aftermarket can on the existing pipes ? Is the remap for the second option also needed.

@spicy110 2 жыл бұрын

they sell headers and cans that they say need no map change and I would back that up with my model and year as its running great to this day. As for the second option you could but you will likely need to have a custom pipe bent to make a mid pipe, I can not comment on if that set up would need a remap as I just don't know for a pipe that maybe made.

@AntiqueStory 2 жыл бұрын

@@spicy110 Thank you for the Information. I have a couple more questions, just got my Yamaha XJ6N and want to learn more about it. Milage on mine is 40000 kilometers. Is this a high milage ? At what point do I need to change the timing change, or is it adjustable ? When I start the engine and its cold it makes a ticking noice for 2-3 minutes until it warms up, the ticking comes from the left side of the bike (if you are sitting on it), the cover with the Yamaha writing. After 2-3 minutes when the engine is warm it dissapears. Should I be worried about this or is it normal. Another question is what is the running temperature of this bike, I have noticed that when I am riding in 6th gear on the highway it tends to be 89-90Co but when I am in traffic it comes to 100Co and than cools down back to 89 and repeats the cycle in traffic. When I turn of the engine from the red button with the iginition key on it reaches 106Co and I wait until it cools down with the fan to 95C then the fan stops and I turn it off from the ignition. Sorry for the many questions I just want to know :) and see that you are the XJ6 expert on youtube.
