2026 Yamaha R1
SC Project GP70-R 3/4 system Air Injection System removed & block off plates installed o2 sensor cables removed ECU tune/flash for remapping and to match exhaust
I know if someone did all of this but didn’t remove the AIS then the backfire would be constant on deceleration sounding like a gunshot or explosion. On mine around 8,000 RPM down to 4,000 RPM on deceleration there’s always one backfire, but it isn’t insanely loud.
I would assume that is normal. The stock cat and muffler will muffle that sound a lot vs deleting the cat and installing an aftermarket exhaust.
Anyone else have a 2020+ R1 and have similar mods done? Just curious on your opinions and thoughts in regard to potential engine damage.
