Race cans on Yamaha R1 |

I've just fitted a set of race cans to my Yamaha R1. Cash is a bit tight and I don't want to spend any extra on a Power Commander if I can help it. Is it OK to run race cans without altering the fueling, or will I melt my pistons? |

There's a lot of miss information regarding the use of Dynojet Power Commanders or any other fueling kits and the melted piston rumor goes back to the days of two-strokes, which would do nasty things like melt pistons when not set-up correctly. With a four-stroke you're unlikely to ruin the engine by fitting a set of race cans. Generally you can get away with fitting either a set of cans or a free flowing air filter and the motorcycle's fueling will be fine. |
