I have a 2021 850 Sport. My bike is rated at 84 horsepower. This model year 900 Tiger's were rated at 93 horsepower. The 2024 Tiger's are rated 106. The posted engine specifications look the same. Can I get a tune to get some or all of this power out of my engine? I'm out of warrantee, so that's not an issue.
I don't know about the Tiger's but...... The mark 1 StreetTwin I have was 10 bhp down on the mark 2. I replaced the original Triumph camshaft that was frankly useless and a joke. I'd be surprised now if my bike didn't exceed the later mk2 factory performance figures. Mine has k&N filter, decat, Vance and Hines pipes, no baffles and the Tec cam. The cam made the biggest change, research carefully.
I have a tiger 900 2021 The ecu limits the amount of throttle and never gives 100% at high rpm To obtain 100% of throttle the ecu maps can be changed with the tuneecu software https://tuneecu.net/ you need a license and it costs like $30 dollars, if I remember correctly You also need the OBD interface I use OBDlink LX it costs $90 dollars in amazon Youtube tutorial to use the software to increase power I did it for my motorcyce, I can only feel a difference above 7000rpm, at full throttle , so going like a maniac, which I rarely do.
I believe that is the case but, sooner or later, some inventive tuner will find a way around it. That said, the road test reviews suggest that, in the real world the 850 tune is fine because the power is delivered at lower RPM where most of us spend most of the time.
Got to agree with that. I am still impressed with the acceleration, handling and torque on this bike! It is an awesome machine and probably underrated by many. I love it!
