The whole idea is there so that i can afford the parts, software/hardware, products at a quicker pace that way i'll be able to produce and upload content on a more frequent schedule. As it sits it's not financially feasible for me to do it all on my own utilizing nothing but my own main source of Income. Unless i want to be heavily in Debt... which is a huge no for me lol. If your interested & want to help out, be my guest i would be super thrilled to have you. If not, hey i get it no worries. Thank you everyone! www.patreon.com/Foxxy400

It's a must, the DNA air filter. Pricey but well worth the cost

Great video, I'm a big fan of the way you're documenting the results as you go. You're making an excellent resource for folk looking to do the same or similar things. Cheers.

Thank You!! You are doing a great service with these videos. The ability or inability to ride a 350 at freeway speed is the one thing holding me back with this bike. 75% of my riding is on roads in which I rarely exceed 50mph. But there is that damned commute that involves prolonged riding at 65-70mph. Nincompoop sez: "Just get a bigger bike." No. A bigger bike does not have the aesthetics I am looking for, I have a 650 Interceptor, it is capable, but it looks..uh.. modern. Read: boring. I have a 500 Classic. It has enough power, but the the vibrations and the buckboard saddle have me passing blood in my urine, a painful perineum and paresthetic hands (yes, I've tried every aftermarket remedy) . In a perfect world there would be a 350 smooth, comfortable, refined RE with a 500 cc (650cc?) single cylinder engine.. RE sez.."Fuck you, dream on". Nincompoop sez: "Just wait, there will be a 650 Classic, just like the Super Meteor." No. As much as I love the 650 engine in my Interceptor with it's glorious clutch, smooth power and 6th gear, it, again, does not have the aesthetic I am looking for. So, a beautiful 350 classic with a 70MPH capability has a Huge appeal and makes it a viable choice in the American market and a target for my Motorcycle dollars.. Once again, Thank You.

There's 1 part in particular that I'm waiting for them to restock that is supposed to provide a huge change. Apparently with all the parts I'm installing, have yet to install, and the one I'm waiting for them to restock. The bike gains 20% horsepower. Which sounds crazy even for a small cc bike. So I'm curious how that extra HP adds to the functionality of the bike for 55+ mph commute

Yes, The performance camshaft. Hitchcock's has a video of the Dyno testing, including a comparative power curve, most impressive. The video shows them installing the camshaft, the process appears rather straightforward, IF you have all the necessary (and specific) tools, IF you remove the engine and have it sitting on a bench in a well-lit, clean garage, and IF you are a competent motorcycle mechanic. A lot of ifs for a nincompoop such as myself who's skills are rudimentary. I've installed DNA filters and Decat pipes on my 500 Enfield's so I know I can do at least that. @@FoxParasyte

Awesome! Looking forward to more!

Got the same exhaust and DNA filter. Engine was running very hot until l installed the lite x. This calmed it down. The overall package really adds to the character, great sound and bike feels great.

Very interesting as you slowly fit each hitchcocks mod, Filter the first one to do when its finished run in :)))

Enjoying the series! o7 Just pondering, but remove the speed limiter (if possible) and leave the rev limiter (if possible.) Top speed without valve float.

Goofball moment: So disregard when i was talking about the "3 connections that need to be removed" Must have had sweat dripping in my eyeballs. For whatever reason i thought the retainer clip for the connection on the O2 sensor was connected to the bottom of the tank. Yeah It's definitely not lol. Just those 2 connections for the Fuel line & Pump are all you need to remove on the left side of the tank

I had the same problem with my exhaust clamp, it tightened fine but when I tried to back it off to adjust the pipe it seized solid so I had to destroy it ! Hitchcocks replaced it f.o.c a very good company.😊

Very common problem with stainless steel bolts is if they are the same grade then they often seize when undoing. We use different grade of nut to bolt and problem solved. Helps to lubricate threads before even light tightening.

Hi Foxxy, firstly thanks for mentioning my channel in your video. I enjoyed watching your video, love the filming and your presentation. Your final comments are also informative. Just thought I would let you know what I’m up to now. I’ve made a few performance upgrades to my bike. Two videos will be out in a couple of weeks time. The acceleration has now dramatically increased, I definitely have more top end power without affecting the lovely slow speed character of the bike. I don’t have the FuelX anymore and would not buy it again. I found the best way was to reset the ECU. This is easy and demonstrated in my second upcoming performance video. You’re correct you can improve the performance but not increase the top speed. This is governed by the front wheel ABS ring. Look out for my new videos, in my opinion it’s the best upgrade for this fabulous little bike. It’s now even more fun to ride. Ride safe and enjoy the bike. Tiger Ness

Good to hear from you. Hope I sent people your way in the process of making this video. That is fascinating that you can reset the ECU and it works properly. I have a Fuelx video coming out in a day or so. I've seen a lot of positives on my end but if a ECU can be played around with that makes it even better. Out of curiosity have you had issues with your speedo being off by a considerable margin? My top speed is 71mph according to GPS. But the speedometer says 75. Take care friend

Hi Tiger Ness, can’t wait for you next video on how to reset ECU and why you would prefer it to FuelX. I was literally buying it yesterday and then I noticed this comment from you. I will not buy FuelX until I here the reasons against it. Thanks and regards

You need to pull the fuse for the ABS sensor to get unlimited speed. You will get an engine management fault light though, and the ABS wont work. There is a different ECU fitted to some Hunter 350 for non Indian markets, that may get a top end of 85mph. Its stems from speed restrictions in Asian markets.

Since these bikes are already borderline lean stock i firmly believe that FuelX, or similar, is step one when tuning with parts. Open air filter and exhaust just makes it potential leaner.

Amazing video man ! Can't wait for part 3 , i installed the DNA stage 2 filter, is it worth installing the full Hitchcock exhaust system? Or do you thing the Decat alone might give me a louder bike?. Looking forward to see the next upgrade , more HP will really help (remap, removing speed limiter). Just for highways. Thanks a lot !

The decat will definitely make it louder but I imagine not nearly as loud as the Hitchcock full exhaust. Part 3 is coming soon.

Super helpful and well made video. I have a classic 350 also (chrome red); 800 miles. Can't help notice when your up-shift or shift points. Aren't they kinda late (at the end of the rev range); like doing 50 mph in 3rd. Unnecessary unless you are testing... which is what Foxxy was doing. Am I wrong or is this the right/best way to treat the engine day to day. Note: the yellowing on the pipes.

@FoxParasyte

10 ай бұрын

The shifts and pushing the revs of the bike were more for testing. I'm far more relaxed on this bike with normal daily use. The yellowing on the pipes is normal. This is what Hitchcock says right on the product page "This exhaust system is not homologated for road use and as with all stainless steel exhausts, as they go through heat cycles there will be a change in colour, particularly around the header area" I would imagine that installing a fuel x prior to the exhaust would cause less yellowing since it's supposed to help keep the engine and exhaust at lower temps.

I cannot fully say since i've not done the De-Cat pipe. My understanding is that the sound is similar to the full exhaust (somewhat quieter so i'm told) the "performance" is no different between the 2.

Lovely city, lovely direction, lovely motorcycle (I have booked the same colour) & lovely sound. My questions are if you may:- 1) If I decat & use the stock silencer will there be any increase in the thump or change in performance or fuel efficiency? 2) You mentioned mini punjab(which is a short bottle free flow) which looks exactly like this, will it sound similar, if yes what is Hitchcock charging more for? 3) You mentioned tuning the engine, what does it exactly mean?

@FoxParasyte

10 ай бұрын

The city isn't so lovely lol. Anyway. 1. I'm sure just a decat will make the bike louder and give it more of a thump. Performance I have no clue. I have noticed worse fuel economy but only a few MPG of a difference. 2. I have a friend 200 miles away with a mini Punjab pipe. Next time I see him I'll have to put our bikes side by side to see or hear a difference. I think the quality of the exhausts will differ more than anything. The Punjab are mass produced in large numbers where the Hitchcock is produced in smaller quantities which usually results in a better quality product. (Not always) 3. Well the 350s don't technically have a full tune that I'm aware of. However my general understanding is that the bikes run rich from the factory. Having additional parts makes the fuel mixture even more out of wack. So having a Fuelx will tune the fuel mixture to optimum performance. Apparently if you have performance parts on your bike and add a Fuelx it'll help balance it all out and in turn increases HP and torque. I have a Fuelx that I will be installing in the next video. But it's 100 degrees outside and I want nothing to do with that at the moment 😂
