How do you like your 350 EFI

[GMP]

About ten years ago we flew into Reno and drove to condo in Heavenly at about 7800'. Thought I was hot shit, jogging around, carrying the luggage, etc. Next day my wife took it easy while I skied hard all day, a lot of it up at 10K' and into the CA side. Felt fine until next day, was like a hangover that wouldn't quit. Wrecked the rest of my trip. Your body needs time to adapt and build a higher blood hematocrit level for starters. If I ever go out west to ride at altitude I'll spend a day on the porch for sure! Better to waste a day than a trip.

Hi!

99 hours on mine. No issues at all. The EFI has been great. I installed a full FMF exhaust (Q4 and PowerBomb) about 15 hours ago with the corresponding EFI map. Even more overall power/torque. In technical going I use the softer CDI map most of the time because it does not reduce power or revving ability but only softens the initial hit saving a lot of energy. Currently in for its 3rd valve check up. Until now there was no need to adjust any shim.

how are you changing the mapping? Is it a jumper or switch? Software? Or do you have to take it to the dealer? also, is there software available for diagnostics and tuning? Is that something a mere mortal can own?

As far as I know it has to be put in with a dealers EFI diagnostic tool.

Hi!

By CDI map I mean to just use the free red/yellow wire under the tank and install a "Map 1" Map 2" handlebar switch. It not about EFI mapping. It proved golden in many cases in the very difficult Slovakian ISDE. After some unlucky moments, especially on Monday on the 2nd round with a broken clutch master and keeping it on the handlebar with 4 zip ties, I still managed to end the race with a bronze medal in the C2 class...!! For several ISDE veterans, the toughest ISDE with respect to time schedules and with very technical transfer sections. I was lucky to chose this event as my first ISDE

Congratulations on finishing - and medalling - your first ISDE! Hard to be 100% sure from behind the keyboard, but it looked tough.

I just got a new 2015 350 and it is amazing. I also have a 2014 350. The 2015 engine is so much better, amazing smooth throttle response. What I really like is that it does not have that jerky feeling at low rpm's like the 2014. The bike behaves like a 3 stroke, in between a 2 and a 4 stroke, I think the stepper motor on the EFI gets the credit for this, riding down hills is much soother. I also changed the FMF power bomb and Q Stealth exhaust from my 2014 to the 2015 and found it works much better on the 2015 as well. The combination of the FMF and the injector work very well. I had m mechanic re-valve the suspension for our low speed technical trails andI added Michelin Trials tires and wow the ride is also smooth and amazing. If you never tried trials tires you should and see what a difference they make. I also changed the grips to a set of Edgers grips, (Brazilian brand) and the bike was easier to handle, the factory grips are not so good for me. I love this bike, the best so far.

The 350 EFI bikes are very smooth! So the EFI adjusted to the FMF exhaust no problem?

Yep I fitted a FMF Powercore 4 Hex to my 2016 no issues at all runs great.

Yes, the bike is actually smoother now with the FMF system, hard to imagine as the bike is so smooth with the stock exhaust. It also gives the bike a little more snap when you need it. Also the noise is beautiful.
