Based on some logic, my insight about the IAT relocation would be this: we all agree that the air in the airbox is hotter than one in outside the bike. Especially at lower speeds or on traffic. As we relocate the sensor outside the airbox, it will read a lower temperature, but we don’t relocate the engine itself, so engine would still receive the higher temp. air. (Same temperature, as the iat would read in its original location) What we get after this mod is the ECU thinks the air is cooler than it actually is and gives more fuel. The bike starts to run rich, that means a poor air/fuel ratio and lower hp. I cannot understand how do they receive additional power from this mod. Tell me your insights.
Plastic isn’t conductive but the metal sensor is. It isn’t reading accurate. Ducati moves the IAT from the factory for a reason, it’s accurate. No engine damage.
@@BT_Moto I am wondering the same thing. BMW put this IAT sensor in that location for a good reason and if it was much better in the front of the air box, wouldn't they have put it there? I have done this on my bike already, but I do wonder if the ECU software is expecting to be reading the temp of the air as its about to actually enter the engine, not what it is outside? Since that is what likely affects the tune more than the outside air temperature? The outside temp is kind of irrelevant if the temp of the air entering the engine is hotter?
@@kendallbennett7451 we’ve proven over and over that there’s no negatives to doing this mod, just keeps the bike more consistent. BMW also put a flapper kit in the intake and exhaust. There are reasons for that but has absolutely nothing to do with power or reliability. This is the Same with the location of the IAT.
Ok so the real question is. If this is such a good upgrade then why does it come from the factory in the stock location and not in the intake track on the nose of the bike?
I brought a IAT relocation kit for my s1krr but then I thought to myself... the guys at BMW know what they’re doing.. the location is where it’s at for a reason.. the couple HP gain for the basic riding I do wouldn’t even be worth the hassle nor do I just ride around aimlessly on extremely hot days so what difference really
Does the ECU see that the Flaps are not plug in ? So you need to write the ecu? Isnt it. I just ask but i dont know if bikes have tun protect like cars.

Great Great video! So glad I went with your Stage2 on my bike. Your woke up a beast! Keep up the good work Bren.
Thank you this video is very helpful. I’m looking to purchase these parts for my S1K 24

im doing mine tomorrow morning! thanks brentuning for the fast shipping but i didnt get my tshirt to rep yall !
how did you get one?

I'd like to know this also. It must have a reason.

very interesting video! I have a question ... if you leave the bike running without walking, will the temperature remain fixed at 92 or will it rise?

@@COBRACUSTOMS our tuning compensates for all of our modifications
For a second I thought it was Wristys s1k
Edit: nvm seen him later in the vid lol
@Laith yes it is, now just waiting on Jesus to wake up. Hope he's good.....
Hey BrenTuning,do you have a dealer for your tune in Australia ,do you have a contact for them.
If not how do I contact you.
Cheers bro
3 years later, what did you end up doing
How do I get a tune from you for my s1000rr, located in North Chicagoland Area?
Awesome video, but did you cut out that wheelie you did 🤣🤣
💯🔥🔥🔥💕
