hi guys, so i basically today drove out to a dealer, its about a 3 and a half hour drive 1 way, to find out the sled already has the 07 mid alt mapping and that they will not list those type of updates on the serial number.........
so back to square one, the guy at the dealer, very knowledgable on the 1000 saying that it could be my clutching, and that the 1000 has alot of power to power through any clutch problems, but other then that everything works, also with my flashing light, it turns out to be a what was it? a sensor getting too much voltage then not enough voltage, i had my i think its called the barometer sensor up near the front exhaust pipe because i thought it needs air flow, but i guess wrong, it needs the oposit of that,i have yet to ride with the reposition of the barometer sensor, but what do you guys think?
could it be the barometer making the sled do about 80km/s to the tank of trail riding, now i think if i do some playing around on a hill, probably 50 km/s to the tank, this is very unacceptable to me, so either this gets fixed, and it gets better or its going, ive put in well over 1500$ into it,
id rather not put more into it trying to just "play" around in the hopes of making it get better fuel, to find out its not fixing anything, why is it everybodys saying the 1000's getting the equivalent to a 800r? i know htis is not true, as my dads 800r its a 07 gets well over 50% better fuel economy, for instance: last weekend, we went out, it was a nice day, some powder, i run at a hill 2 times, and thats about it, he runs at it about 12 or more times and plays around on the hill, then we head out, head over to another place, then by then it was getting late as my Y pipe bolts decided to come out so then i had to spend a while fixing that, so we headed back, i see my tanks got less then 1/4 tank at about 68km's thats where im guessing id be lucky to get 80 km's out of that tank, my old sled, i NEVER had to worry about fuel, id play around as much as i want, run at a hill 80 times if i wanted, and run at all the hills here, and head home, it could do that, this thing i cannot trust......, as all you riders know, you go out and you just have fun! you dont worry oh god, if i do this i wont make it back if i play around a fair bit today,
but my main worry is, is im seeing that it wont or will barely do 80 km's of trail, in the spring we ride up in this place with some reallyyy nice hills and stuff and our average km's each day is 100-120..... this thing currently would not survive, so if anybody has any info or anything to help me, please let me know, i really do want to keep this sled, i love it, but its not worth it if i cant have fun, i was considering to turbo it, but usually a turbo takes away some mpg/s so it would probably make it worse???
Current stuff ive done to it:
95 chevy 6.5l TD lift pump to replace the old facet pump (maybe its causing the horrid fuel issue? giving too much fuel? i dont know)
K&N pods
2007 mid altitude mapping (apparently)
MBRP exhaust,
Soldered on a direct ground and a positive under the relays,
T-stat
