Hello all,
New to the forum, been riding my FZ6R for two years now, and looking to finally get a new exhaust for a better sound track. Since I already have a SW Motech center stand installed, I finally selected the LeoVince system for its near factory configuration (not a fan of the side mounted muffler of the Delkevic systems) and what seems to be good build quality.
Several questions I have:
1. I currently run a K&N filter without any tune. The bike runs OK without any issue.
2. On the LeoVince website, they did describe the product as compatible with factory fuel settings, and a tune is not mandatory. That said, I understand that the new exhaust with K&N filter is going to cause the engine to run lean. I am just not sure whether the factory fuel map is conservative enough to compensate for this drop in fuel-air ratio.
3. Dyno tuning in my area is quite expensive, and the price of exhaust + power commander + tuning is not worth it for me. So ideally I would like to use an off-the-shelf map that I can install myself.
4. I am really not looking to make more power, so any tuning is going to be ensuring usability. Would like to keep using 87 gas as well considering the gas prices these days.
5. I am in the US so my bike does not have a O2 sensor. Any chance I can install one and turn the system into a closed loop so I wouldn't need a remap?
Thanks in advance for your help. : )
