It's time for a new tuning project...

This time it is the turn of Daywalker's XB9SX. The goal is to get it running as smooth as my XB12. As an aside, the next tuning project will be my 1125r, perhaps fitted with an exhaust designed using the software used by a leading sportscar manufacturer (where my mate is head of intake and exhaust design).

Thanks to sportster_mann (many many thanks), we have a set of XB9 headers, onto which we have welded slave lambda bosses, shown here with lambda sensors fitted.

Image Image Image

Plan is to log data, using my Palm E2, controlling to the rear lambda sensor. Then use MegaLogViewer with the GEGO correction parameter in the log file to modify the map for closed loop operation. Repeat this a few times to get the map as stable as possible. Then we will do the same with the front map, using a heated narrow band lambda sensor. Then, we will use two Innovate LC-1 wide band sensors for the the open loop part of the map, TPSs 100, 125, 175 and 255, with a novel logging system that has yet to be proven 8-)...

Next step is to get the exhaust fitted...

Pash, your welcome to the pipes, I'm glad to see that they are going to be used, rather than cluttering up my garage. 8-)

And I'm now getting very jealous as this sounds a very interesting sideline of yours - I wonder if it's too late to pick up an XB ... :?

They will be available to other people that want to use them too ;) . On th elookout for some from a 12. I have some that Kev passed on to me, but theyneed a bit of work.

The 1125r will be the next project, and this is easier cos it has two lambda sensors fitted as standard, and making the bike smoother at part throttle can be done with the bike as it is...
