R3T derestricting

[ski]

The guy that runs the dyno told me that when the dealers hook up the ECU, it goes to to Triumph and they know what software goes into the bike. He also said that the ECU stores info of different tunes that have been loaded. I am not sure if his information is correct. He also told me that Team Triumph of Janesville Wi. is the best dealer for performance in the area. About 50 miles from me. I am going to pay them a visit after my vacation down near the Dragon next week. The new silencers and tors tune are going on Friday this week. I am not expecting too much difference in performance but the dealer is giving me the pipes for free if I pay for install and tune. Under $200 so why not.

I just need some pipes, wish I could get my hands on the Jardines .!!!

You can actually use some of the pipes made for HD due to the mounts being the same. since you are working on bike anyway muffler shop will be needed due to angle of pipes and pipe is whole on left side.

Ladies and gents,
I have had more than a few calls about Touring model performance. This should help out more than a few of you.

The Touring models are the same except for the exhaust and ECU calibration. BOTH are very restricted.The ECU controls the secondary throttles and actually closes them at higher rpm and higher gears. In the exhaust, the header is the same, but the box after the header is very restrictive. Slip-ons (TORS and D&D) really don't do much except for sound.

Neither do air filters under the seat. Triple K&N RU-2780 filters make a bit more from 4000-5500 rpm, but have the same peak power output as the stock air filter. The stock intake plenum and ducting actually makes more torque under 3000 rpm than triple RU-2780 filters under the bearclaw. It is not until you go to a full exhaust system that the RU-2780 filters make a difference.

A stock R3T or one with a slip-on exhaust tends to make ~86 hp on my dyno (~ 13% lower than a Dynojet), and 130-131 ft-lb of torque. Simply re-calibrating the ECU (mapping) tends to result in 115-117 hp, and 140-142 ft-lb of torque. A very nice improvement.

Attached is a "tune" for stock and slip-on exhaust R3T models, as well as a graph of output differences. Dashed lines are torque. Red is an R3T with TORS and stock air filter. Yellow is after tuning. This resulted in 43+ mpg cruising at 70 mph on 87 octane fuel. Speedo corrected for stock tire. Speed limiter raised. Ignition timing improved in lower gears. ENJOY!

Will this tune work with a 2014 R3T with or without TORS?

I have ordered both my ecu wire and tors. So whichever gets here first gets done first lol

Thanks for the tune and advice!

Worked perfectly on my bone stock R3T (at least stock insofar as exhaust etc goes) and made a huge difference at that. From reading Wayne's original post (personally I have zero clue about engine tuning and I'll be the first to admit it!) it seems that the exhaust system is constricted between header and slip-ons so TOR's will alter the sound more than anything else, but I may be wrong.

I fitted a set of Tors and a K&N filter to the standard air box on my 2011 R3T ,and had the bike Derestricted by Sports Cycles at Whitebridge NSW using his own tune to suit my riding needs on his Dyno it picked up 36 RWHP
from what it was with the Tors And K&N ,and held a nice even Torque and HP curve all the way to 6250 rpm the ignition retardation on 1/2/3 were removed , and the smaller throttle body butterflies electronically locked open , the top speed limiter raised to 260Kph (theoretical) goes hard enough for me,also the Cats are in the standard silencers on the R3T and the crossover box is virtually empty.

I found a mechanic familiar with Wayne's map 20368 for the Touring w/slipons. When I took the bike out I first noticed how much more the forks stretched on acceleration.. I then put it in first and let the clutch out coasting. I snapped it wide open and the front came up about 6-8 inches. Thanks Wayne!!! Now the scoot, is a hoot.

HOLY HELL!!


WHOA WHOA WHOA...


POWER TRIPP IS A FREAKING GENIUS

HEY... I got that exact same step stool. Bike too. Ain't that Touring fun now?

I've had a friend of mine load the map to my 09 Touring with standard filter and standard exhausts and it is a different bike. It reacts much smoother to the throttle, accelerates better and left a huge grin in my face

The max speed I could manage on a short strip of Autobahn was 188km/h displayed by my GPS and not the speedo, but that's so far only 2 more than I could do with my previous standard mapping. However, I'll have a longer trip next weekend and after that I should be able to give some better and more detailed feedback...but the wrist is itching!
