Welcome. Black or Red?
You will find that the 1100 Evo is awful at low revs so either keep the revs up (impractical around town) or get the ECU reflashed. Lots of info on here. Safe riding. |

Welcome to the EVO club. Amazing bit of kit…if it's not already got it you'll be wanting a performance ecu, air filter and termis. Also a 14tooth sprocket helps with town manners.

Welcome, Love my evo, here are some of the main mods I have done to my Evo, and they do make a BIG difference :-)

Noce mods there:
I've essentially done similar in that I've got an ohlins rear, dp ecu instead of a custom map and I've got the same rearsets…very pretty. |

Greetings from another happy EVO owner, as other aficionado's will concur, you're in for a lot of fun. My first tip is to make sure you can easily removed the rear wheel nut before you need to. They can be an absolute bar steward to get off. Mine required the efforts of three garages to resolve..

Hi, dwil.
Always good to see another Evo owner here. Post up some pictures; we all like pictures! Have a look here if the low speed running bothers you: http://www.ukmonster.co.uk/monster/s...ad.php?t=54450 There are lots of options depending on your budget and what you want to achieve. Quote:
https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clar...pact-wrench-2/ It's rated to 220Nm so makes short work of the rear wheel nut at 176Nm. (Sadly, not quite tough enough for the flywheel though at 270 Nm). The good thing is, you don't even have to lock the wheel to undo the nut; just holding the tyre by hand is enough to stop it rotating. Enjoy...and roll on spring! |

I only ride twisty country roads , never go anywhere near a town or city, she seams about the same gearing wise as my others so not a problem to me , at risk of upsetting not a termi fan , or carbon 😧, Have fitted an evo tech tail though 😊 |

At the risk of hi-jacking a thread. Has anybody had there bike weighed! I'm going to do mine next year…i have access to an industrial weigh machine that does 1/2kg increments.
My rough calculations would have it at around 180kg kerb, assuming a starting weight of 188kg. With regards the rexxer flash I didn't realize that was an additional change on top of the dp ecu. Last edited by Ron1000; 02-01-2017 at 04:21 PM.. |

I discussed this with Neil at Cornerspeed. I was considering fitting a DP ECU to improve the low-speed running instead of a reflash. Neil's opinion was that the DP ECU alone would not provide this so I went for the Rexxer reflash of the standard ECU.
