Newbie from Finland (add pic)

Post by veewee »

Hi All

My name is Ville and I just bought Xtra Raptor, what a great bike!

I have been intrested about 1000cc Raptors sens 2002 when i saw first one. This is not a common bike in Finland.
This summer i saw first time Xtra Raptor for sale in my country and I need to get it. Her number is 443 and She haven't been here, up in the North very long time.

This is almost original exclude Mivv cans, tailtidy and bellypan. I have installed now GIPro ATRE and adjust TPS. Next thing will be TBS sync. Also Airbox mod, K&N and Healtech FI tuner or PC is in my mind but important things first.

I hope that TBS sync will help small problem in 4000-5000rpm. It feels that beast is hesitating, throttle response is not what I wanted.
I will search/ask kindly Your help if I can't sort this small problem soon.

Finlandia Vodka Shot for everybody, bottoms up!

Only small test drive done after TRE. Maybe little better but it didn't solve main problem at 4000-5000rpm. It feels like it gets too much gas at those rpm's. Let's see what TBS sync will do. She got 18000 km in clock and I think nobody have sync TBS earlier.

Hello Ville . There is a common prob with clutch switch but this is normally a little lower rpm .Tps setting is easy using "dealer mode" or jumper or you can use a multimeter but i did both and dealer mode is accurate enough.

I used to drink lots of Finlandia when my Dad worked for a Finnish company many years ago. I wouldn't mind another shot right now, ta. Welcome to Rapland!
