  • I was curious to see what is the horsepower on the RS 660, after installing the SC Project CRT exhaust, an UpMap with Gabro's map and a DNA air filter. I was surprised to say the least.

    It's using SAE correction. (Top right) that correction factor produces the lowest number of all the different CF's. If in DIN or STD you'd have 90-93hp approx.

    Take the dyno "stock" vs. "restoration" (gains) on the same day as measurements. Also correction factor on dynos should be "SAE" rather than other operators using "STD" correction factor.
    100 horsepower is what Aprilia advertises. Take the ~12% drivetrain losses on the typical chain drive motorcycle and you have 88 wheel horsepower.
    You can also work toward reducing frictional losses on your bike and pick up a couple horsepower. There's high tech lubricants and 0w oils that will achieve that. If you want to push the power around on the dyno map, velocity stacks might do that, but they don't "gain" power, but rather move it. You'll lose power in the middle and gain it on the top. If that's what you need on the track, it's probably worth it. If you ride highways most of the time, you'll be disappointed in the middle-range losses. Velocity stacks, simply put, change the timing of the intake pulse wave to make certain air velocity more efficient at a given RPM. But by so doing, the air flow becomes less efficient at 'other' rpm. This is why Yamaha designed their YCC-T 2-position velocity stack to make the intake more efficient on average than a fixed unit. Now chances are, the stock Aprilia velocity stack might be less efficient over all than an aftermarket unit (you'd have to research) which could free up additional power without losses. Some bikes do that (the 3rd Gen Hayabusa for instance), due to meeting emissions and noise regs honestly.
    Also, Aprilia is not using the same brand ECU as Japanese bikes usually use. You run into the problem of tuning companies investing the R&D ($$$$$) into a given bike model to crack the ECU, to be able to change restrictive parameters and make your throttlebodies function without the choking (if the RS660 has 2 throttlebody butterflies), or ignition maps hampering ultimate power. There's a lot of Japanese ECU flashes on the market because the investment has been made with tuning companies and the electronic architecture is about the same in many of them. I know for popular models like the Tuono V4 and Ducati Panigale and BMW S1000RR and KTM 1290 Super Duke R, there's ECU flashes. But for less common and less popular models you might run into the issue of no ECU flashes available and have to simply run piggyback modules (Powercommander for example) which only go as far as modifying fueling and ignition curves and cannot do anything about secondary throttlebody butterflies closing down, radiator fan temps, per-gear throttle-by-wire restrictions, throttle maps for modes, quickshifter dwell times, speed restrictions, or much of anything else that an ECU flash accesses.

    • @ALFAVITAGA
      @ALFAVITAGA  2 года назад

      The ECU has an upmap with Gabros map. I wouldn’t call those readings too lean. On average they are below 14 except between 6200-6800 rpm that goes to 14.3 max. Still below 14.7

      in the graph are shown 2 runs, the one with lower power reading and the leaner AFR probably is the first cleanup run. The "good" one is the other. And trust me is a very good AFR plot for being a canned tune done from the other side of the world (by me :P )

    Nice to see. I know this hp figure is at the wheel and different dynos show differently. You could possibly go to Turbo Joe in the valley to compare Jared's dyno. I have rode 3 of these RS660s on track and raced one, and this sounds about right to me. Looks like the computer was fixing the air/fuel problem after the first run. I have done essentially the same mods to my street version of this bike but Gabro's Upmap did not give me access to the map with the velocity stacks from a different manufacturer. Biggest difference I felt was a little more power at the low to mid range but that's without data.

      How far are you going at max for your lean angles on street? I just can't pass 36 degree... I know it's not the bike, I but coming off off a naked, this leaning angles feeling quite extreem to me.
      What tire pressures are you using for street use? I go 2.3 bar front, and 2.4 bar back. Maybe I should go 2.6 , 2.6 as the manufacturer say.

    • @ALFAVITAGA
      @ALFAVITAGA  2 года назад +7

      @@Notoxic30 Good questions. First of all you don’t have to “chase” lean angles. Chasing lean angles can get you on a slide or worst, a high side. Use the MIA to monitor lean angle as reference. Which means if you read 36 degrees, you have plenty of lean angle to go. I would say for the street, under good conditions (clean asphalt, warm tires, dry road) you are safe to be around 40-45 degrees. But lean angle is dependent on body position. The more you hang off the bike the less the lean angle. My MIA has read 52 degrees on the street. But that reading was on a downhill, that affects pitch axis resulting on exaggerated roll axis(lean angle) numbers. On a leveled turn my max on the street is 49 degrees. Regarding correct tire pressure, it depends on many factors. Your weight and style of riding are one of those. I don’t usually do bars, I prefer PSI so I will refer to PSI. My bike stock came at around 42psi rear/36front. With this over inflated tire pressure, I couldn’t pass 45 degrees lean on the street as I was starting to lose traction. I dropped my tire pressure to 34/34psi and I had better grip. I prefer to use even pressure on both tires. Unless on the track were rear tire pressure is dropped lower than the front. So at 34 even I had good traction but it was not ideal. So I started to drop pressure gradually until I found my sweet spot which is 28psi(1.93 bar) even. Now remember, with gear I weigh about 195lbs. Another thing to remember is that depending on how hard you ride, the tire pressure will increase. The way I ride, I increase tire pressure about 4-5psi. So the 28psi becomes 32-33psi warm. With these tire pressures I am more comfortable leaning more but I also decreased my lean angle with better body position. Remember the less lean angle the faster you can take the turn. For instance the same turns I took with 49 degrees lean angle, I now take them with 45 degrees and faster due to hanging off the bike more. There was a time were my max lean was 30 degrees. So don’t overthink it. Fear keeps you from leaning more but fear is an indicator that you should take it slow. Work on it slow, and I strongly recommend taking some classes. If you were in Los Angles or Arizona I would recommend a great coach.

    Velocity stacks only move the power around at certain RPM's and not making more power isn't it, that's what I heard from people that are doing/ installing it not because I personally know it or doing testing myself.

    • @ALFAVITAGA
      @ALFAVITAGA  2 года назад

      Look I’m not expecting the stacks to transform the bike. If I install them I’m sure I’ll probably wont “feel” the difference. But on the dyno graphs it shows that with a stock exhaust it improves torque on mid to high rpm and increases HP a bit on higher rpm. Which I’m assuming the same numbers will increase with the SC exhaust. Its a 660. You cant expect much out of it. But every little bit matters when racing.

    Considering Aprilia claims 93hp and 100 hp for the Factory version...not sure if that's wheel or crank they don't specify which usually means....at the crank... So being you're that close to claimed crank hp is pretty darn good!

    • @ALFAVITAGA
      @ALFAVITAGA  Год назад +1

      So for the RS660 its 100hp claimed at the crank. At the wheel you would expect around 93. But those numbers mean nothing, because it all depends on the correction factor that the dyno is set. Usually from what I’ve seen in Europe they don’t really use SAE correction. And that 93 claimed is not on SAE. SAE produces the least amount of HP. All that means nothing though, as the most important part of the dyno is comparing the base line numbers to the ones after the upgrade. Which I didn’t have. In a way it makes my dyno run pointless as I don’t have the stock number dyno to set as a baseline. I bet if I would have dyno it before the upgrades, it would be under 85hp.

    I’m sure your stock number is on this dyno would probably be around 80 hp (at the wheel) I would guess with the mods your bike is probably making another 8 hp or so which would put it right where it’s supposed to be. different dynos give many different results. All that matters with any of them is you want to start with a base run and then after mods on the very same dyno whichever one you choose. The difference is the true number regardless of what the max number is. The max number will be different every place you go, but the difference between stock and mod will be the true number. And also, if you get velocity stacks they will make no difference on a dyno run as you have to be moving for them to create the ram affect.

    The CRT exhaust is hurting you for sure. The type of Dyno and operator all come into play. My Sponsor, Robs Dyno Service, uses a Dynostar Dyno. He is very meticulous about calibrations and having the correct environmental conditions entered in the system. I have the Hindle Exhaust and the Aprilia Race ECU. Unfortunately my clutch switch was screwed up so it would only rev to 9k. At 9k it was making 82.5 hp and 49.6 tq . The HP was still on a pretty steep climb but the tq was just starting to fall off . I'll share when we get a chance to do a full run on it. I have a video showing the run on my Channel.

      The CRT definitely hurts it. It would perform better with an SC1-R. Every dyno will read different.

    • @ALFAVITAGA
      @ALFAVITAGA  8 месяцев назад +1

      The RS660 was my first bike and I decided to choose this bike after multiple weeks of research and advice from other experienced riders. I believe that the choice of first bike is crucial in a new riders development as a rider. The RS660 shaped who I am as a rider today. It is true when they say that as a new rider it’s almost a fact that you will go down and ruin your bike. I had a few close calls and mistakes a couple months into riding, and the bikes electronics saved me. One was an ABS intervention and the other was a traction control intervention. Going down as a new rider can be detrimental to your future riding as it can cause the rider to quit riding. The RS660 did the opposite to me. Not only did it save me from going down, but it also gave me the smoothest ride possible as everything about the bike feels high quality. The brakes are amazing, the seating position is extremely comfortable for a “supersport”, handling is perfect, and in general it’s such a joy to ride. It may not be the fastest but it sure has a lot of torque on low and mid end that makes it even funner to ride. So with the above in mind, I would absolutely buy it again if I turned back time. Zero regrets. Now would I buy it again today? Probably not, as for me the RSV4 is a different beast that I just can’t substitute. But it all depends on the riders needs. Variables like, do you have an Aprilia dealer close to you? Are you planning to commute with it? Are you planning on tracking it or racing it? Aprilias are a little bit more predisposed to warranty claims compared to Japanese bikes. Thats why I would not use an RS660 to commute and add a lot of miles on it. Not that it cannot handle a lot miles, but I’d rather not add miles on a bike that the valve adjustment is at 12000 miles instead of 24000 miles that a Japanese bike is. There are so many variables that can determine if someone should buy an RS660 or not, but at the end of the day Italian bikes are meant to give you smiles. And the RS660 will definitely do that for you.

If you are not racing you don’t have to dyno it. You can just install an upmap like I did with a fixed map. And thats only if you change the exhaust as it will affect air/fuel ratio. RS660’s run very lean as is, due to Euro5. Now is the exhaust-map-filter cost worth the power upgrade? That also depends on you. This is a street bike for me so its not even the power upgrade that I care for. Its the sound upgrade that is worth every penny.

      Due to Euro5 these bikes run stock very lean in air/fuel ratio. Removing the catalytic converter, adding a full race exhaust system and a race air filter will make the bike run even leaner. For that reason, a tune is required to adjust the air/fuel ratio.

      @ALFAVITAGA  2 года назад +2

      @@rexile1986 Both the Upmap and the Race ECU technically voids warranty. But that depends on your dealer and whether Aprilia requests a map scan from them on a warranty claim. If Aprilia doesn’t request a map log then you should be fine. If they do and see the tune they can refuse the warranty. But that also depends on what country you live in. In the USA there is the Magnuson-Moss Act that protects the consumer from purchasing aftermarket parts. In other words Aprilia would have to prove that the tune ruined your bike. Often times companies don’t want to go through court to battle that and they will just honor the warranty. Again thats valid in the USA. I don’t know about other countries. The Power Commander supposedly is not logged in the stock ECU when installed. If that’s true then the Power Comander would be the safest choice. But its much more complicated to install and you will need a dyno to set the air/fuel ratio. In the end it will cost more compared to an Upmap that you just plug in and set the map with your phone in 30 minutes.

So it proved that the open can is not killing it. I know a guy that races and won titles with the CRT and not with the SC1-R and he never had any issues. But it’s not always about the dyno graphs but it’s also how the bike feels. I prefer the SC1-R as it feels more linear and responsive compared to the CRT. So for racing I would choose the SC1-R, but for the street CRT all day long for its insane sound. ✌️

      On the RS660, cost of parts to gains ratio is not worth it in general. Exhaust+Map+Filter can exceed $3000. And all for a couple of HP. If one just wants a faster bike then it would be cheaper to use that money towards a liter bike.
