Eagerly waiting for your goodies!!

I want to mention a few things here if daytona is still in your minds somewhere...
FORGET IT!!

I have had the daytona engine kit.. tried all combination on it and thoroughly compared part by part with stock ones.. The part that disappointed the most was the daytona ECU.. The stock ECU powered my bike better till the rev limiter.. i.e the torque was better with stock ECU all the way up to 10k..
removing the rev limiter was the only performance oriented thing Daytona ECU did..

But I am glad that its no longer the only option..

... I am very excited to hear that the development is almost complete..

@joel
I will be arriving in mid march, only to stay for a week.. I hope its ready by then..
I am desperate to bump it even more..
I will get rid of my projectors and HID to reduce weight.. its all i can do

^you were one of the early birds to sample the daytona kits. Dont worry, its time to pull out some extra horses

Finally managed to put together a video this weekend. The test was done on a completely stock yamaha R15

Please watch in HD for better clarity. Youtube strips some of the original quality so i've provided a link in the description if you would like to download and view the raw HD video which is much more clear.

I took a relaxed launch in this video to highlight that a great effort isnt necessary to acheive these numbers. My height = 6ft, weight = 75kgs

0-60 - 4.7secs
0-100 - 12.4secs

Stock ECU does 0-100 in over 13secs

Got the oppurtunity to ride Joel's R15 with his ECU (the only modification, no big bore, no FFE). It is mind blowing. It feels lot different than the stock R15. I could wheelie easily in the first 2 gears. The torque flow from the launch is impressive. People who haven't got this setup are missing a lot of good things.

**Joel** · 02-28-2011, 10:07 PM

Thanks for the video Killer.
Chinmaya, you never believed me when I told you the bike was bone stock. You could ride the same bike after the ECU swap and then you'll have a different comment.

**chinmayakar** · 02-28-2011, 11:15 PM

I believed you man. I believe whatever u say without thinking twice. However, your R15 with just the ECU change was so much better. It was so tourquey with just ECU change. It was unbelievable. But, then its you, so anything is possible

. I can imagine the kind of performance R15 would belt out, with all the Mods put together.

Many thanks for the video!!

YouTube - Stock Yamaha R15 running Joel's ECU - Vbox Test - 0 to 100 in 12.4 seconds

Many thanks for this video Sameer!

As suspected the speedo error at triple digits is at 8kmph mark, atleast at 126kmph. I weigh the same and so this is great!

As per this test and the time Joel posted earlier. This ECU swap on the stock bike alone makes the stock faster to 100kph by 1.5 seconds over the previously recorded 1.05 seconds with ECU to 100kph! Pure Genius!

I suppose Joel has fine tuned the ECU settings for the stock bike now! This is absolutely fantastic. I would love to ride the stock w/ECU to see the difference it makes throughout the rev-range.

If it's quicker to 100 by 1.5sec. I wonder what it'll to do with my setup! And i cant wait for it!

Joel: I'm coming soon

**Joel** · 03-01-2011, 10:25 PM

Also we tested the maps on the bigbore versions and also the fully engines which do 0-100kph in 7s and its responding quite well. Much faster than what it used to be with the daytona ECU even with fuelling corrections. The system is very flexible and gives immense tuning options to push the limits of the engine.

Hey meghan, let me know when you are coming to bangalore... I want to compare our setups if possible..

P.S.
I wonder if joel still has the FID tool under his seat..

Superb! Looking forward to it!

Ofcourse man! I wanted to do a comparison the last time but I guess you had left town by then and I was breaking-in the engine. I'm supposed to ride down in the next few days if the ECU is launched. Anyways check your pm.

Question Time

Hi Joel,

Thanks a lot for your time and patience with me.

as we discussed, I will be meeting you by the 3rd week of March.

Now I have some silly questions for you,

After using my R15 for 2 yrs, I started to use Motul Full synthetic oil recently and its amazing. So after the Bore replacement can I use the same oil immediately or whats your advice?

The next concern are brakes, Yamaha strictly recommends to use the 290 Roto petal disc (Costs 20K) after Daytona upgrade and I suppose your upgrade is much better than that.

Sounds like an excuse to buy the petals

Look at joel's bike and also the bikes he has tuned.. As far as I know, none of us are using those brakes... Of course, I would love to have them, but can do without it

..
We all have our own priorities for the cash we spend.
If I had extra 20k to spend on my R15, I would wait for sometime for joel to come up with some new amazing "xyz" upgrade and get more bang/bucks..

Those brakes are a case of overkill... a much better option would be to change your brakelines with steel braided breaklines... these brakelines really transform the stock brakes giving superb stopping power and great feedback... and the best part is that you will not have to spend 20k...

Big Bore

At last, saved enough money to get my R15 "Joeled".

Waiting for Joel to respond with the exact date and place.

Guys, do you find any abnormal vibrations after the bigbore kit replacement and how is the engine braking?

Coz the vibration less ride and very less engine braking are the trademarks of R15, I shouldn't lose it at any cost.

Please go through the previous posts on this thread and the thread posted by KwokFist on his experience with the big bore... all your queries should be answered... there are no problems with vibrations or cooling...
