Tried to get this video as accurate as possible which is why I didn't want to launch the bikes. Instead at 40kph I was able to go in when editing and start the timer at the exact time my wrist turns to give it full throttle. Also Hordpower did not pay or know I am making this video. I purchased the intake myself and was curious what the results would be side by side with other bikes.

This has been a video long awaited by so many! Great job and video you've done 😊 🤙

Actually you can remove the air box without taking of the fairings, you just need the right screwdriver.

its just if the engine can breathe out better you haver to let it breath in better then you get the best

What I wonder here is: if something SO simple as a repro and something SO cheap as a better filter - wouldn't Yamaha have done it from the get go to gain such massive amounts of power and sheet specs to flex on the media and stand out better? In short, I believe Yamaha hasn't done such extremely easy and cheap things from factory because they must truly be detrimental to the bike's health.

@averagefz0749

2 ай бұрын

Its because its what every manufacturer does. Take a look at all car and/or bike manufacturers. All vehicles are tuned to meet emission and regulatory standards around the world and sacrifice power for this. Every vehicle, if you throw a tune and a air intake on it, it will make more power. But this bike is not a race bike so they don't need to "stand out" because the way it comes from factory 95% of buyers will be happy with it. From a reliability standpoint, yes, modifying an engine will reduce its life expectancy. But as long as you are throwing a proper tune on it and not trying to get every HP out of the engine, you'll be ok. Realistically if an engine is designed for 500,000km, i can't see a proper tune reducing that by more than 5-10% at most.

You get around the same gains from a stock airbox + high flow filter + tune. The difference could be around 1 hp, but it's $100 less.

Not true. Actually just installed a high flow filter in the silver bike shown in the video. That bike now has the stock airbox, air filter and tune and it was still slower. Around 10.1-9.9s compared to the 8.89 that the hordpower bike did

@hordboy

2 жыл бұрын

No drop-in filters add much power. The problem is not the filter, but the design of the OEM airbox. Intake runner length too long, volume too small. The Hordpower filter is a 4hp gain by itself. Add an ECU flash and good exhaust, (I’m a fan of the Yosh, best bang for the buck) and you’re looking at 9-10hp peak gain over a stock bike. And in the upper rpm ranges, it’s more like a 15hp gain, minimum. That’s very, very noticeable on a bike that makes 67-68hp from the factory!

In the upper reaches (8500+) where stock power falls off hard, the airbox lets it keep making power all the way to 10,500, so the gains are bigger. If you do t believe it that’s fine.

How you work the clutch comes with experience. Other than when I'm taking off from a stop, I'm not gentle with my clutch at all. You don't have to slowly release it even on downshifts if you rev match so you don't lock up the back tire and slow down smoothly.

You f***d the test up mate, look at how much tuck you have with the hoard power run vs the other 2. Tucking has a bigger impact than a few extra hp and that's why there was such a big difference. You wanted to be consistent but weren't consistent with your body positioning.

@averagefz0749

It’s impossible to do a test 100% perfect in these conditions. Bike 3 with the hordpower airbox I had to put more pressure on the bars as when shifting gears from 1-2 and 2-3 the front wheel pops up. This alone shows the power difference that it makes as this didn’t happen on the other 2 bikes. On the other bikes this was not an issue. Also if you take a look at bike 2 and bike 3 the “tucking” is pretty much the same. Grab the airbox yourself and do some tests. You’ll find the difference impressive.

Or you could just remove the air box completely and get a tune 👍
