Another question for the Gear heads ! :) RE: Ramair!I Was hoping someone could help me with this on

[Lifelong Biker]

I was hoping someone could help me with this one question. I recently installed the RAMAIR filter set up. 2011 Roadster, have TORs pipes and was mapped for TORs by local dealer. Now that I installed the Ramair, I "of course " get that awesome air induction sound. But I also get a rattle type sound, ( on exceleration sometimes ) is this just the injectors making nosie, that I didn't hear with the old air box on? Or do I need a tune. Not sure if I can handle the TUNE ECU, never did one before , but am mechanicly inclined As always any responses are appreiated !

The stock TOR tune wil be too lean. You should get with TuneECU ASAP.

I'm about to order the TUNE ECU for Triumph motorcycle! Hopefully I can handle this !

There isn't any ordering involved for TuneECU. Go here and download the program onto a laptop if you have one. It makes it easier than taking your bike inside to the computer . Do a search and see what cable most have had luck with and order that one. After that it is as simple as reading through the TuneEcu section here and possibly watching a you tube or two to see the basics.

For a start - YOU NEED Les's OZ-Claw. it will kill the chirping/rattling and with some little mods WILL keep the air intake temp in check. It works well with RamAir- seems to seal off the lower edge from hot air wash off the radiator.

Unless you have a proper way to measure AFR ratios - BE CAREFUL messing with fuel values. Consider PVC-AT or Dobeck-AFR.

I ment to say I was ordering the Tune EC >>> "Cable" to up load the download to the ECM

So is the "chirping / rattling" normal injector/throttle body sounds or is it bad air /fuel mixture causing it??

It is the sound of power being made - as opposed to noise being made instead of power, which sounds more like potatoes than crickets.

It does chirp and you are running too lean. While driving to get my bike tuned, having jardines and triple K&N's, I didn't notice any weird noises. It wasn't running great though and the air/fuel was 15 when they tested it.

Bikes differ -

Even with a PCV adjusting mixtures, mine made/makes HORRID and irritating "chirping" noises with triple K&N's. Was less loud with the RamAir - Chirps changed from right side to left side when I fitted the heat wall and went away with Les's claw. With The Ramair predecessor made by ITG it sounds like a jack-hammer. The Oz-Claw and Ramair could have been made for each other - fit wise.
