Thread resurrection

A positive part of the forum you say. 6 posts in twelve years.---Yikes. Would really like to hear more from you though as you do live in a very...

Go faster then the noise will be way behind ya. :cool:

paint it !!!

Welcome home Jeff.....

Totally agree. Any idiot can give the bike full throttle. Bit like jumping off a cliff. It's when you come down. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh. ...

Every single one of them. ANYONE on the planet can power wheelie a 1000cc sportbike. 0 skill required. Just twist.

How many members on this forum do you reckon can power wheelie ??? I get what you are saying though. Anybody who buys the latest Hondas can do...

so you're saying.. Honda doesn't want to kill its customers.. so they put maximum torque output slightly less than full open throttle.... and yet,...

Correct, it is.--------Honda method to keep its customers alive.------Mortifying them is not good for business.----They don't all have these guys...

if real, it's definitely the computer, since it now controls throttle, fuel and timing. as per graph above, near WOT on both 2 and 3, Torque...

At power level 2&3 and traction control level 1&2. Above 6k rpm. Stock and rapid bike. I have a strong feeling it's the damm computer

🙂 What rpm range is it doing it? With traction off or on? Have you pulled error codes? Or... Is it just the lean surge?

2 or 5mm,, you get the idea. I double triple checked in 4th, 5th & 6th gear. very noticeable

All items still available.

This! A simple check with a voltmeter will verify what the throttle is doing. Seat-of-the-pants is notoriously unreliable. Honda is famous for...

alternatively, you could check the voltages of your APS (throttle sensor) there are actually 2 position sensors in there. both VCC1 (Y-R) and...

just to be clear, full throttle is 20mm rotation of the grip, so 5mm = 75% throttle. that's a fair bit 90% throttle would be 2mm less than WOT (95%...

/yawn

I'll try.-Lol.---Depends on the speed.--Mid range revs at WOT does not mean full power. Just what the ECU is programmed to give you to stop the rear...

WOT is just that when high up the rev range but at lower speeds you would spend most of your time viewing the sky or ending up like this forum...

What you say---------

EXACTLY the same impression I get from some of your poorly thought out posts. Look out----Incoming.---------( By the way I DID design part of...

i'm just whining.. exactly you got that right

I’m confused to what you actually mean sorry. So your WOT in 6th, then roll off 5mm. How does the bike “accelerate harder than full throttle” if...

at what RPM range? hard to imagine it doing this above 7-8000... but in the 4-6000 emissions/low port velocity region, for sure what twaddle...

Not safe? Like I said, all my bikes do that and have done for decades. It's weird when you encounter it, but if you have the skill to modulate your...

since everything is decided by a computer, why not make WOT = full power? imagine you decide to modulate your speed/acceleration from a WOT...
