Thought as much... 👍 I?ll keep eyes out for a decent deal on full system but still sitting with old track bike at the moment so trying to get costs down. Thanks for the replies once again guys..

Soofsayer.. yes had a look and it seems the pressed joints of the original exhaust are leaking. I can see daylight through the left hand pipe looking from the inside. I suspect I?m going to have to drop the whole system and most likely get the whole set up checked and seems welded. Will most...

Just resurrecting this post briefly for some help hopefully.. managed to get some time this week to work on the bike. Fitted the new decat pipe but once all connected up I noticed I was still getting some exhaust gases blowing around the sump area. Initially thought it was the decat joint but...

Thanks Oli, just got the bike back today so not had a chance to test fit everything and see what?s what but will hopefully get to it tomorrow. A list of jobs to try and get sorted related to dodgy fuelling/ pcv map but wanted to start with proper decat as other option was trying to find a stock...

Ok folks a quick question on the exhaust valve just before the end can on a 2010 model.. the bike I bought had a fairly crude Home made decat (that managed to burn a hole in the belly pan at Almeria last month!) on it that retained the original exhaust valve. I?ve just bought a proper decat pipe...

Bananaman... cheers. Connected up power commander this morning and did exactly as you suggested and very minimal issues in first session. Tyre change for second and been carnage since. Currently on an extended lunch due to an ambulance shortage ��

Thanks Alex, yeah that’s my thoughts too.. frustrating when ur out here but was always a gamble buying the bike and shipping it out without having a chance to check for these niggles. Overall it’s good and the Suns shining ����

The bike has apparently been set up with akrapovic pipe, power commander and decat. I didn’t get the akra pipe when I bought it so the original seller had stuck the original can back on. The power commander was also removed but was given to me as an extra. I’ve reconnected the pcv tonight at the...

Thanks again for all the info. I got on better today with the shifting once I started being more direct with it. It ll be a work in progress. Today’s problem was fuelling at low revs when cold.. with hindsight shipping the bike out here without riding it back home was a mistake.. still making...

Hi folks, just wondering if this issue was ever resolved? Out in Almeria at the moment and having a nightmare getting to know the new bike. It’s a 2010 and presenting these same symptoms. Low revs out of pits etc almost like its running on 3 cylinders then clears higher up rev ranger and after a...

Thanks Alex.. I suspected it was the spring that was causing the issue. The pressure needed to activate was nothing like the feather touch on my old Annatori Pro on the Honda. Fuelings a bit off on the bike too due to the dodgy decat connection I suspect. Ok once warm and at higher revs. Some...

Hi folks... out in Almeria at the moment and first ride of the s1000rr. Loving the bike and had a couple issues this morning with the exhaust due to a bodged job on the decat. Getting there however moan issue is the pressure required to activate the standard Quickshifter. Previous shifters I?ve...

Im brand new here and yet to ride my 2010 rr however it has a race shift on it and is using the standard QS. Hope this helps :stung:

It’s nice to know I’m not the only one mad enough!! I haven’t even ridden the bike yet... went to see it in the rain and it was sitting on slicks! Got everything crossed it performs as I hope it will in Almeria in Nov!!

Thanks Stuart, how do sign up as a premier member? Doing most of this on my phone and not easiest to navigate...😖
