Thanks for the vid, helpful, however one part i did not catch was when did you get the actual butterfly inside the pipe opened? The purpose of the motor is open/close it, and my understanding is that the default position is closed until one goes to a higher RPM ? what am i missing ? EDIT- the butterfly remains open when the bike is off, put my slip-on today and it was opened and of course remained open with servo buddy delete.
It's only louder while idling, at full throttle the sound is identical because the the exhaust valve would be fully open anyway. If you need something loud the catalyst must be removed .
There is also a flapper valve up in the header. At least there was one on the 2018 gen 2.. You need to pull the cables to open it, and then secure them to stay open to get the sound or it will flap open and closed at the top..
Cool, this helps me to understand how it all works, because I need to do the opposite :D my servo motor stopped working and the bike is way loud because of that, so I want to install a new working motor in there:)
Hej focused garage I did this on my gen 2 2023 , and I have engine error code now, I did same as you ? What know I need a servo bud to conect so the code go away? Or do I need to go to bmw 😢
Can we get a follow up to this video? Also this is awesome. Thanks for the help. I was trying to learn this for the servo buddy, to put with the new exhaust. Did you have any faults? How much louder? Won’t be able to tell but can you rev it a little bit outside?
Over 1,000 miles since this mod and all has been great. No issues whatsoever, no codes. It is a little louder, but I still couldn't call the bike "loud" if that makes sense.
Hiya pal. Do you know the DB level on the Pro Race exhaust Gp-S1 or get it recorded? I'm just curious, as I've bought some but now having afterthought on constantly getting pulled or neighbours' complaining, etc. Your thoughts and views are welcomed 👍🏻
Only way of doing it properly is using a servo delete module. If your bike goes to a dealer and they run a diag on it, it with throw error codes up. The motor relies on resistance and as soon as you remove the cables, the motor looses the reference. I used a Healtech module and it runs perfectly.
So no need to order a servo buddy? Could you just disconnect the cables and zip tie them somewhere till you want to use it again? Would it flash an error??
It's only louder really when it cold starts, it quietens right down once the engine is warm. Don;t get me wrong, it's definitely louder than with the valve closed, but once it's warm it's negligible.
Yea I still want to do a full system lol. This held me over a little but it's still not the sound I want. Makes sense given how large the cats are on this thing.
I’m lucky one of my dear friends is a master BMW tech. He did it for me and said it was a rough job to do. I also had him add an Evotech radiator guard since he was there…🤣😂🤣
@@nmbueller1313Even doing the BMW radiator guards and oil cooler guards weren't very fun. I want headers badly for the noise but am DREADING the installation. lol.
MY advice is to get the baffle from BMW. Like you, I put the Black Widow headers on and it is just obnoxiously loud from a cold start, so much so that it sets off car alarms in enclosed carparks. The baffle keeps it loud, but quietens it enough so that your neighbour's lives aren't ruined.
@@FocusedGarage Headers are very straightforward to install. If you can remove the servo, you can definitely install the headers, just remember that you will need a servobuddy to clear any ECU fault, and at some point, you will need to remap the engine as she fuels pretty lean once the headers are on (BMW maintained my warranty under the proviso that I had it remapped). That said, re-mapping removes a lot of the exhaust pops and bangs. Also recommend the akra baffle from BMW if you do it. It's very, very loud from cold start.

Very helpful. Couldn’t find vid like this when I needed and now it in suggestions 😁
But what I did-I disconnected cables and just zip tied

Correct, by default the flap is open and the cables close it.
Healtech has a new one for bmw - keeps everything in place but now has a switch - open/close as you like

Correct, I will still have to put an exhaust on this. haha
Are you at full throttle on the street often? Lol
Great instructions .. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!

Great video!! Didn't get any error on the ECU?
Nothing so far and it's been 1,000+ miles!

Great video but damn you sound like George Clooney!!!
Thanks for the perfect video, I'm trying to remove the cables today.
Will It damage the engine ?
Mine (S1000RR'17)
Should have no impact on the motor.
@@FocusedGarage After removing the cables now I feel the SC Project Slip-On lmao 😂 Happy I don’t need a servo eliminator anymore 😅

Great vid!! Took me 20 minutes!! Holy louder it is lol sounds great!!
I removed the servo and the sound is great... bit also gain explotions at low rpms that I dont like
Some cracks and bangs haha.
Die you remove the batterie before disconected it to avoid error on the screen?
Where did you buy the heatshield? Want one😁 link?
What kind of bag do you have in this video?
Bro can you take it out the db killer?

for 2015 model as well?
Is this a good temporary until a servo module arrives? Or are they hard codes that won’t disappear unless taken to dealer
If i do this can i lost warranty? Can they figure out? My M1000R are new. Just 20km on. I dont even do the first service on 1000KM
It shouldn't impact warranty, but if you are skeptical you should check with your local service department first.
put it back on when you visit the dealer
dose it not throw a code ?
So no need to order a servo buddy? Could you just disconnect the cables and zip tie them somewhere till you want to use it again? Would it flash an error??
Zero need for a servo buddy if you leave the module connected the way I did. Over 1000 miles since this video and not a single issue.
If you don't connect the module, you need a servo buddy.

I put Black Widow headers on, kept the stock Akro can on mine, and added the servo healer. She was quite sporty sounding afterward…🤣😂🤣
That's exactly what I want to do! Black Widow + factory Akra end can. Happy with it? How bad was the installation?

If the cable is removed, will the engine burn incompletely?
Yes, should not change the way the tune operates.
Does this void warranty?
Only if it directly causes a failure
Could you not just unhook the cables from the servo and leave everything in place?
I suppose that would work but I feel this is a bit cleaner.
