Tores Tune= Hard starting

2560 Views 29 Replies 8 Participants Last post by  Devious2xs
I had the tores tune loaded last week to go with my zard and now it takes at least three times as long to start when cold. I'm hitting a Dyno war today so hopefully it will be worth it.

I agree, mine sounds nut'n like that. Could it be the dyno? ???
It is so difficult to diagnose a sound related problem based on an internet video file. It could be anything from metal on metal, to a bearing, to an intake air leak.

Either way, it needs to be fixed - the sound would drive me nuts!
It almost sounded like the tire slipping on the drum.
I've never heard it while riding but people behind me have commented often, so that leads me to believe its in the exhaust. The zard baffle is now history, sounds nice too. I'll go out this weekend with some buddys and let you know
I happend to pass one of the guys I go riding with on the interstate today, the whistle is gone. Traffic was bad so i went buy him in 3rd and 4th screaming and he said there was no whistle. I guess it was the zard baffle after all. Thanks again for everyones help.
Cool, glad you got it all sorted! :drink:

The problem is that the short tuned length of the Zard silencer wants less fuel at low rpm. We are finding that the tunes that work fine with systems using longer midpipes, need to be leaned down under 4600 rpm to improve performance and starting with the Zard silencer.

There have been several discussions about the issue on this site.

Let us know the outcome of the "dyno war", and post any graphs if possible.
Is this why I notice the bike sputtering in first under 4000 rpm....I just noticed that it is beggining to do this more often.....anything higher than 4000 rpm and the bike screams.....Still thinking of that power commander...

More than likely.
