....unplug my lambda sensors from the exhaust to see how it changes how the bike runs or if it throws up a error light, it has done nothing it still runs the same and no error lights.
Why do this you ask? Im trying to get to the bottom of why my slipon exhaust pops and bags so much.
Is this normal? Has anyone else tried it?
Tonight i went for a ride, the engine light turned on but it runs so much smoother and does pop from the exhaust anymore.
Is this a good thing?
You're not running a PC are you? This does not seem right....I would think the computer would have seen the MASSIVE a/f change and would have thrown a light.
I'm not running a PC but I'm looking into it. I think our bikes can perform alot better, smoother and more power. We just need to find out how to do it.
The computer has realised the sensors are not connected and has thrown a light but it runs so much smoother. I have done some research on the internet and many people with other makes of bikes have disconnected the sensors and have had excellent results.
The computer doesn't rely on AF readings anymore it just uses the base auto map (which seems like its working well).
I think the big problem with our bikes is they run very lean to get through emission testing, which doesn't make for a smooth and powerful running bike.
My first big ride without the sensors connected last night was awesome, the bike felt completely different, so smooth with no jurky throttle and it was so willing to hit the rev limiter with more power to go.
interesting...if you leave them out for the long run, let me know how it does! I might have to try this...Quote:

Thanks.
The plugs are easy to get to, they are located under the right side cover on the tank near the water bottle. I still have them unplugged and havent experienced any negative effects. I did try plugging them in but the ecu wasnt happy and wanted to be reset, so I just pulled them out again and all was good.
Thanks , a bit of black tape over the light ?
