Title: after market exhaust FZ6 help
Post by: bikerboys on 18 June 2013, 09:18:05 pm

Hi all just got a 07 fz6 and looking at fitting some  after market exhaust but i have some questions

I have a mate who said if i fit an after market exhaust to the bike then the bike is not going to run right ?

he said i would need to get a power commander for the bike to run right because the ecu is set up for the oem exhaust

and not the  after market exhaust  :groan can some one help me please

  I am also presuming that if I do change the exhaust, etc. it will need tuned to cope with the changes, is this true ???
 
 All help greatly appreciated and cheers very much in advance.

You after an end can or full system?

An aftermarket exhaust can cause a bike to run leaner (and hotter), so I'd tend to agree with your mate that the bike will need set up for it.

Surely you could just get a different map for the ECU? I don't know much about injectors though, so I'll be interested to see where this thread goes.

Im also interested in this one as i thought that ecu's and fuel injection systems were clever enough to compensate for any changes.
 
i mean how come the bike can adjust itself to run in a cold climate like scotland and also a hot country like spain without needing a power commander? :\

I fitted scorpion cans about three years ago, and the bike runs like a dream.  I was advised at the time that they fit straight on the bike with no remapping required or tuning.  Hope this helps.    :)
