Bonneville AI removal advice.

Hi Filbay, will AI removal trip a fault code? Well that's a very good question that has several answers:

1. Full removal of all the AI system including the solenoid, without any other actions - WILL TRIP AN ERROR LIGHT;

2. Full removal with the installation of a resistor - NO TRIPPING OF ERROR LIGHTS.

3. Full removal with a modification to the installed map deleting the AI system from the map - NO TRIPPING OF ERROR LIGHTS.

4. Full plumbing removal of system but leaving the AI solenoid connected - NO TRIPPING OF ERROR LIGHTS.

 

Have a look here for AI removal without having to reset error lights on ecu. It's dead simple. Or if you have the means to reset error lights just remove everything. I did the full removal in about 40 mins, taking my time and thinking things through before action. Good luck

 

Why not just plug the pipe to the air filter this is quick to do,easy to reverse and results in no light.Then if you wish you can remove the head tubes and plug the holes to give better access to the spark plugs.However I found on my 2011 SE that the O2 sensors will detect less air in the exhaust and think the mixture is rich so weaken it to give wooly running on light throttle.You can use O2 eliminators to stop this and do an adaption run and then you may be happy but probably the course will have been set,like so many of us,on more mods.When the best stuff has been done the bike will be transformed and you will just want to keep as off the shelf bikes will not compare.
