I LOVE the popping on my R7. How can you NOT like it smh😫
haha, I do like it to but I really wanted the bike to just run better...and of course the reduction in engine braking is awesome!!
It doesn’t completely go away, just doesn’t pop on every developer or shift anymore
That’s the best part of a a exhaust I think.
Same here 💥🔥💥🔥
Haha I paid an extra 100$ from Moore mafia to have all the pop and bang
This is now my favourite channel on TH-cam. I’m in love with the R7 but getting an R3 first. I’m a new rider and can’t wait to get on two wheels.
thanks bro and I appreciate that. you will have a blast with the r3
@@ScoutsOut If I had found your channel earlier, I may have bought an R7 instead of the mt07.
@@trailrider1980 dang, yea the R7 is such a good bike. the MT is good too though
You can jump straight to r7. Not unless you want to save on insurance
r7 isnt overwhelming. Youll get used to it very very quickly. R3 is a waste.
Great work buddy, it's always fun to watch your videos. You do a great job and it was awesome to watch you do it. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.
Ride on and have a nice Sunday🤙
Thanks ck, I appreciate you man. Enjoy your week 🍻
@@ScoutsOut Thanks buddy, have a nice week too🤙
Nice job - thanks! Got my R7 on order.
Thanks bro, congrats on the new bike hope you get it soon
Just installed the MG shorty levers. I used a vice on the brake lever and it was extremely smooth and easy. Levers feel pretty good. Only gave them about a 5min ride though.
Good to hear man, I was really nervous about ruining them with a vise. Glad it worked out man
I'm no tech guy but you made this look simple enough for me to attempt on my r7, I just need myself a new laptop. Thanks for the video
Nice dude glad it's helpful, I still haven't learned how to tune it myself but loving the engine brake reduction and fan temp changes that it does
Glad to hear you really think it was worth it! Also look forward to the Dyno results
Yea, honestly much better than I expected I’ll try and get the dyno soon
Sir please post the dyno result soon.
I’ll try man but it’s going to be a few weeks works been ruff
Removing engine braking is my biggest want. Good video bud
me too!! thanks bro
Popping is my favorite part tho!
Haha, yea I kinda like it too just want the bike to perform better
Heck yeah 💪🏼
Would be cool to flash back to pre tune put up cones and measure the engine braking distance and then with new tune.
Hard numbers bring all the boys to the bikes ;-)
dude...thats a friggin great idea lol
Great bike had one recently and did full exhaust, Dyno tuned, with stage 2 DNA airbox setup, fun bike but will always be way slower than a 600cc inline 4. Had my R7 for 6 months did a lot to it and traded for an R1. Bike killed it in corner but got walked on the straights like it was standing still by all the inline 4s. Again great bike but I WASTED a lot of money on mine trying to just get 90HP out of her and didn’t even get that.
Yea bro for sure I had a cbr 600rr and zx6r before owning the r7, it helps to know it’s never going to be a 600. That’s kinda why I bought it lol
@@ScoutsOut it is definitely its own bike it’s faster than a ninja 650 but not like a inline 4 600. Great bike in the twisties and low end torque is awesome for wheelies. 💯
I am going to go the same route. Yoshi exhaust on backorder for 3 months but I’ll go DNA airfilter and the kit you have to reflash whenever you want. Are you still enjoying it? Have you tweaked it on your own or have you found some maps you like?
That sucks the yosh is on back order, hopefully you get it sooner than later. I am still enjoying the map, no tweaking yet but hopefully i get it on a Dyno next week 🤞🏼
great video, i didn't know there were different maps for different regions
I know right, I learned with someone in Europe that even the electrical wiring is different over there then us, totally different connectors. Seems like a waste of money
@@ScoutsOut yeh, we have earth, line (live) and neutral some installations like boilers and stuff like that have up to 5 wires, idk if you have different 3 phase to us but i know your single phase wiring is different.
basically single phase is domestic properties (homes) & 3 phase is industrial/commercial (motors (for conveyor belts and stuff like that))
this is Not important dont have to read it:
i studied electrical installation at college but i didn't do apprenticeship and i got level 3 diploma which doesn't help get a job (its a long story why it is worthless but the reason it is, is because we have a terrible system for getting into industrial jobs especially electrical jobs and college doesnt tell you about it until after you have spent years to pass the course that doesn't help you
also back to the extra wire, we have the extra wire (earth) because of health and safety
that sucks to waist that much time in school and not be able to make a career out of the skill. In houses here we have 3 wires, I never got into AC electrical I always get shocked when o mess with AC lol. I’m good at troubleshooting DC and chasing schematics for automotive but I stay away from house wiring lol
@@ScoutsOut yeh i studied house wiring, my career goals were to either be an electrician, motorcycle stunt artist or musician, or all of the above, but i dont have much confidence (so singing would be difficult, plus im not that good), i have no where to learn/practice motorcycle stunting and i dont think there is anywhere near me that does it so i dont have money to be able to travel and pay for practice, so electrician was the easiest looking route to start, but now it seems like the others are probably easier, im just not sure how to get into them as a career
Awesome video brother I want to do this to my 22 r7 we have the same setup same bike I’m just nervous lol don’t want to screw anything up plus I have to find a computer that has the capability of using that program
Yea I hear ya, it’s a bit more technical
Hey brother! I’m late to this vid lol. So I have a Toce exhaust on mine and it pops a lot on deceleration of even when I’m upshifting it’ll pop sometimes. You think this would kind of resolve it? I’m just wanting the bike to run a bit smoother. Have you noticed a great difference in this tune?
To be clear I only did the unrestricted tune. It does not add or change fueling so it will not make the bike go faster. Technically with the engine braking reduction the bike does run much smoother and barely pops anymore which is was a benefit from the reduction in engine braking. The bad part of using the FTECU is needing to know how to tune the bike which is not easy.
The easiest route to take would be to send in your ecu to get it flashed. The companies that due that will have a generic tune for the intake/exhaust you have and ask you if you want engine braking reduction etc…
Sorry long winded hope this helps
Do you have any info or can you send me a link on the Stage 2 DNA air filter kit for the bike that you talk about at the end of the video. Love your videos BTW!! Glad to see someone put some content out on this bike since there is not much out there.
I just got it and the cleaning kit for the filter yesterday, so ill put out an install and cleaning vid soon. here is a link to get one amzn.to/3PRZJfH
Are you table top tuning only or have you purchased the Autotune kit from them as well with their lambda 02? I see a single map on their website for stock R7 22' as well as one for the 21'. How robust are the maps available for different components ie pipe specific maps and how comfortable are you with doing pulls and adjusting parameters. In your review you mostly focused on settings you wanted adjusted such as eliminating the decel engine cut. Most of their website including installation instructions and other are restricted unless you purchase the item which is a weird marketing strategy as some people will be hesitant to purchase without knowing the technicals of what they are getting into and in exploring the versatility differences between FTECU flashes and entities like PC6 or RapidBike Evo.
I used the bike side harness and made a full install of how to install it so people will know what they are getting into but I agree it was annoying not seeing how to install before buying but install are easy to me. As for the tune, it comes with the stock map and there generic unrestricted tune. (I was most interested in dropping some engine braking and getting to bike to run better) I am not knowledgeable on how to adjust it myself. From my understanding you can get other tunes and use them with the FTECU, I watched a vid of a dude using a powercommander map (I haven’t tried that). I also did not get the 2nd o2 sensor
Stoked, crazy how you can adjust the engine braking, when I went from a 2 stk moto to a 4 stk the engine braking took getting used to but I kinda liked it and miss it now I'm back on a 2 stk, never really did any serious street riding with a bike that had a lot of engine braking but I did slam down gears to get some into corners. Was the DB reducer in after the tune? 🤙
I know right, I didn't know you could do that either until I talked with Brice Prince from BPR tuning when I was at the track. Once he said it could be reduced I was all in, I think its a characteristic of twins that just have a ton of engine braking. no DB in.
@@ScoutsOut when I saw what was possible on the R3 tune and how much the e.b. was reduced i was like how can that not be a thing with the R7. So glad its true. Damn more money to spend lol
Haha yea they keep getting me with more upgrades lol
Only channel I know that has covered the r7 extensively. Im sending out the ECU to get tuned at a youtuber I follow. Do you know what diagnostic tool and 6 pin adapter works to reset the codes ? I have been scraping the internet for a while now with no luck
I’d say the best thing about this system is once the repair is made the CEL should go away, the FTECU will run some diagnostic data but not much
I like the burbles(popping) can this tune adjust burbles or does it delete it completely
It doesn’t take all the popping out, popping only comes from an engine not running correctly or getting optimum power output, but I agree it does sound cool. It’s not a perfect tune for the yosh and dna it just makes it run better and yea removes a lot of the popping cause it just runs more efficiently
I’m getting a full system cr-t sc project for my 23’ R7, will this tune fix the air/fuel ratio? Or do I have to go to a dyno for that?
Technically yes but you would have know know how to adjust the parameters in the program or find a pre made tune to put on the bike
So far I haven't found any pre made maps for the r7 and I don't k ow how to adjust the fuel ratios. My suggestion would be to find a company to send your ecu to get tuned
i’m putting my sc project exhaust on my r7 soon, do you think I should tune it? if so what tuner should I use? appreciate an answer thankyou
I don't think you have to tune it but I think you would enjoy it more if you did, I've heard a lot of good things about www.danosperformance.com/
If you want to try them out
Where do you buy or download the tuning program as well as the ecu harness/computer connector please and thanks !
I did this video before th-cam.com/video/dQq63wWQMLY/w-d-xo.html which tells where i got it and what to download, hope this helps
😂😂😂I love my decel popping, do you fill it’s necessary to change the filter when u put on a full exhaust?
Change the filter. No, the top cap I installed did add some nice top end power though
Nice, will you test run it on Dyno? I am wondering what’s the gain for both HP and TQ with this device.
yes I will try and get it on one soon
Anynwes ??

Sorry for my ignorance, but is tunning the bike the same as putting a power commander on?
So i have my r7 and i am waiting for my yoshi to be ready so i can install it. My next want is putting a quickshift, what would you recommend next? Air filter? Then tuning/power commander?
Love your r7 videos btw....
No worries, and yes it is. I was interested in the power commander but no one will ship it to California. Once i found the ftecu i realized it’s basically the same concept with more flexibility in what you want to do with the bike. I believe you can even download power commander pre made maps and use ftecu to upload them, I haven’t tried this yet but I’m sure i will in the future. I would do QS and then once you have the air filter and tuner do them both at the same time. Thanks for watching and hope this was helpful
By any chance would you have a link to the specific tuner. I went on to the website and im not sure i am looking at the right thing

My bad I thought I had put the link in the description
Toce dosent have a flash tune yet😭 i did get their filter and snorkle delete. I am waiting to put it on till i can schedule a dyno tune.
dang, hopefully soon!!
i think im going to get this bike for my first bike.
not too much power but just right 😌
It’s a great, you will enjoy it
Hey my friend i have R7 and would like to get it tune how much did you pay and did it made it alot faster any details ? thanks
I installed my own tuner, exhaust, air filter and tuned it myself if you want to watch the videos on my channel. This sundays is another vid for another upgrade to the intake that made a big difference
@@ScoutsOut nice thanks alot for the message
But I LOVE THOSE POPS AND BANGS 😮💨
Yea i hear ya, it still pops just not as much
what is different on california r7 compared to rest of usa?
Not sure, but probly somthing with emissions
How much hp do you think you can make max on this bike with stage 3 and all is necessary?
I haven't seen a stage 3 for the bike unless its just completely removing the air-box all together. I would say from my Yosh exhaust and DNA stage 2 I gained 7ish HP. I didn't notice any real gain out of the filter and the FTECU unrestricted tune I did did not mess with fueling so all I got from that was less engine breaking and the fans come on earlier.
@@ScoutsOut do You think this bike can go faster than 130 mph? Maybe 150-160?
With sprocket changes maybe but at the cost of power down low
could you do a tune for 125 4 stroke injection bikes? like the beta rr125 lc
not sure if they sale the tuner for that bike to be honest, im sure if they do then yea you could tune it.
@@ScoutsOut ok, thanks!
Why reduce engine breaking and popping?
Less waisted fuel and the bike just runs better. As for engine braking while in a corner I want less pull on the rear tire from the engine braking to get more weight on the front tire, it gives more control over the bike.
Any ideas what tune you wanna do on the tuono?
I have the upmap coming and it can Mrs with a bunch of tunes I’ll pop a vid out when I get it for sure
@@ScoutsOut is it the up map from moto box? Or another manufacturer.
@@tredaviousmonroe2089 Moto Box or CBC Moto, lots of places sale it. But its seems to be hard to find in stock
I wonder what’s better this or 2 wheel dyno
If you want to tinker this is but if you just want to be done with it and have a good tune… two wheel DYNO or dans
Would anyone happen to know why my R7s oil is foaming up? Anyone else have this problem? There’s a layer of bubbles across the top best way to describe it is it looks like a beer. It’s brand new oil and the right viscosity (Yamalube 10W-40 high performance full synthetic) and it’s not overfilled either
Possibly coolant, I would look into a block test to be sure. The kits are cheap to test.
9:29 lol i have the same exhaust on my R3. same slip on muffler to with the 2 holes
Haha nice dude, its not bad at all other than melting a few things cause I didn’t pay attention when i installed it
Can you disable the limiter with this tune
Haven't tried but if any tuner can this is probly the best out there. It's used by most race teams for tuning.
This is the power commander 6? Right?
No it’s FTECU
@@ScoutsOut I watched you do the dyno, and I also watched Moore mafia dyno the r7, and he got 71hp out of an after market exhaust no tune. Since you didn’t get any real gains from the FTECU is it still worth the money? ( aside from the engine breaking )
He did tune the r7 in his video to get to 71hp, the FTECU is not the best way. You would save money and get a real tune by sending your ECU to a professional. I only got less engine braking and lower fan temps with the FTECU
@@ScoutsOut I thought he got the 71 hp on the dyno from the exhaust without tuning then say the AF ratio and tuned that. Could be wrong though! I appreciate this information, might try sending the ecu in if I have time this winter! Much appreciated
I love the popping of the Yoshimura 😭 I’m thinking about doing a tune. The engine braking is ridiculous, I hit 130mph and let off and it slowed be down to 115 in second without brakes applied. I don’t always wanna do 130mph but engine braking is an issue for sure. Thinking I’m gonna do lm gonna do clutch lever/front brake lever and fender elimination first. Thinking about getting the same levers you got, can’t find another set.
Yea the popping was cool, but I prefer a better running bike for sure, and that engine brake reduction 👌🏼. Don’t buy the levers I got, ASV finally has there set out I would get those instead
@@ScoutsOut ASV set it is 😭 I’ve been looking forever. I would love a better running bike but I’m on the fence about spending the $$$$$
Yea all this is adding up quick, I need to add it all up and check myself lol
As I understand the R7 runs 38mm throttle body’s
The RS 660 runs 48mm .
Until you enlarge the R7 throttle bore then a “map” ,exhaust , is not going to give a significant increase, it’s why no R7 entered the TT this year the current rules forbid boring of the body’s.
that would make sense and why I didn't see a significant gain in power just a better running bike in general. I'm super happy with it and the engine braking reduction
i have a 23' r7. can i put the 2022 tune on it?
Yes they are the same bikes
@@ScoutsOut hey thanks man! and 1 more question if you see this. Can i put the exhaust that i have on in the meantime until i get it tuned
Yes, it will be fine
@@ScoutsOut thanks alot 👍
@@ScoutsOutI tried installing it like you did all the steps but at the end it says no response. Any idea?
I did a dyno jet pcm and the revxtend revs it out to 11k. We put a MWR air filter on it too and mapped it out to the max. According to the dyno the R7 after we messed with it hit 161MPH in 6th gear after 1.1 minutes. The dyno may be under/ over reading though since my stock hp figures before tune according to the dyno was 39.9hp and after tune 68hp.
Damn that’s a big top end gain, I need to find the time and location to get my dyno done
Dont be afraid to smile
Haha so true man, I get so into it I just robot sometimes even what I’m having fun lol
Where are you buy mirrow?

Hi bro ✌🏻, why you don’t try to change the trasmission of the bike ? I try with the pinion 15 and stay in 42 on the crown , but now is too much faster in the first 2 gear for the rpm of the bike , in 3 and 4 it s awesome . I think that the perfect mash up it 16 pinion and 43/44 on the crown , with a racing trasmission around 200 dollars or euros ( i m from Italy) you can earn 2/3 hp and much funny when ride. I ask to you because i like your tutorial and i see that you like to experiment many thing on the R7 👍🏻
Hey bro good question, I really like the stock gearing and the power output of the bike. I wouldn’t mind a little more tip end but not at the expense of loosing low end
Did you get this from tst?
Yes I did
@Scouts Out and it was just that $300 one? You don't need to buy anything else? I just now seen it
It's $380 but yes that's all you need for it. You do need a windows computer.
