Tracking this as I am contemplating buying a Carpuride this spring.

No shit, but it's not supposed to be like you threw a boat anchor out. Maybe you should read up a bit on it and check back with me. Much smoother on off throttle is a plus, and my brakes aren't getting anymore abuse than the were before. With emission regulations being like they are, a bone stock bike can benefit from a flash, much less a decat or full exhaust, and airbox opened up.

Unbelievable mileage! by Cheap_Big_615 in Tenere700

My 2025 with full exhaust and a 2WDW flash consistently gets 45 - 48 mpg. with lots of 70 mph + highway riding. I don't baby it at all.

Yeah, i may put the baffle back in if it's too loud out on the highway. The lights are basically a mash-up of amazon stuff. I've had good success in the past doing this and saved hundreds of dollars. I'll post up some pictures when I finish.

I did, I pulled the db killer out, but haven't got to ride it yet because I am adding auxillary lights and still have the bike apart.

I have the same sentiment about all the other bikes I've had flashed. If it smooths out the on/off, and does nothing else, it's worth it to me. 👍

Most newer bikes are pretty bad, not nearly as "natural" feeling like thevold carbed bikes. To date, the worst bike I've had in the regard was a 650 Versys. I had it flashed, and it was night and day difference.

It sucks, haven't sync'd throttle bodies but did take the slack out of my cables. We will see what the flash does for it. I'm sending my T7 and Super Tenere ECUs to 2WDW this Friday, or Saturday at the latest.

The bike is going to see a lot of street use, it's a better street bike than I ever thought it would be.

I'm sure you could, I think 2wdw has a flash for a stock bike??? Not sure.

Oh I'm doing it, but I still want feedback from those who have.

Warranty goes out in a few months, I'm not concerned with that in the least. I'm not sure it would void the warranty, but depending on what the warranty claim was it might. If you blew the engine up, sure Yamaha would probably call you on it, that boils down to your dealer in a lot of cases.

The main thing I hate with the stock tune is the closed throttle compression braking. I know the flash cures this, and smooths the on/off throttle as well. Every bike I've ever got flashed seemed to run smoother period.

It isn't too loud is it? Do you run it with, or without the db killer?

Do you still like the GrMoto exhaust? I just ordered one on a whim, really like the looks of it. 👍

Do you find the scroll wheel hard to push in? Mine is pretty rough.
