 Posted: 20:11 - 25 Jan 2011  Post subject: Can the end-cans kill the bike? |
 |
|
A friend of mine has a Z1000 and has swapped his end cans for some MTC's. Everything was OK for 3-4 days then the bike started spluttering and dumping fuel in the exhaust. At low speeds around the streets it's struggling but at higher (legal motorways) speeds it seems OK.
When it stalls, it cranks over like the engine is flooded. MTC say there is no need for a Power Commander or DynoJetting.
He's not riding the bike at the minute and is fearing the worst (cost wise) for a repair.
Does anybody have any idea(s) as to what the problem(s) could be? Any info would be a BIG help.
Thank you guys!!

Needs a power commander / the FI needs remapping.
Also, is there a lamda sensor on a z thou?
Kudos for MTC cans though, they sound great and come with a lifetime warranty (excluding your mate buggering the zorst  ) |

You could see if Kawasaki do a race map, I know Triumph do it, It cost my dad £12 to get a map for a 'race' can loaded into his bike.
