Official SMR 511 Mod thread

[jase76]

Stock TC449's seem to put out about 3-4 more HP than a stock TE 449's, they don't make a TC 511 so can't compare, they have single butterfly throttle bodies, different velocity stacks, airboxes and cams. Not sure about gaskets or anything else.

Price wise, you're looking at $450 for the cams, $25 for the airbox base, $280 for the TC throttle body (not sure if you need a new harness or any ancillaries), velocity stack to match the TB is ~$15.

If you wanted to get anal you could sift through the parts fiche of the SMR and TC to find the differences!

I'm going to do just that when I rebuild my 449 motor I reckon. Are the pistons any different I wonder?

 

[Caiman]

Piston/gasket wise it appears it's either 449cc or 478cc, no difference between TC/TE/SMR.

Thats not to bad...Caiman i recon you suld buy it all, install and tell if its worth the money haha

Haven't found a rich widow or a winning lotto ticket yet, so I'll leave it to someone else! Would be nice to dump a truckload of money on a bike and pimp it out

the compression on the TC in 13:1 not 12:1 like our 511s. Think that's where more of the power is coming from. Anyone have actual dyno numbers from the cam swap? or even seat of the pants feel?

 

[R. Stephen]

also remember the TC is 13:1 not 12:1. THe more research I do it seems like there are a lot of differences.

Drilled a row of 8mm holes in the top of the air-box. Did it up there to prevent hot air from the radiator to be sucked in. Haven't tested it yet! If it doesn't work then I'll just put some gaffatape over it!

If it's not enough i'm looking at drilling some holes where I've marked it with a red circle but not sure if it will suck to much hot air in there as well?!?!

cut



cut some decent holes in heres some pics not the best but u get the idea im going go bigger when the bikes moving u wont get much heat from the rads ... u guys riding this saturday may come out and hav a look? .... if ur there we could swap airbox covers and send ya out for a run before ya go cutting big holes haha

Hey Joe, I'm in Mareeba over the weekend where the 3rd round of the QLD Supermoto is happening!
But I would go out there anyway if I was you. Good to watch and you can sort out what's needed so you can go
Out next time.
Good idea with swapping the box, let's try that one day!

2012 TC airbox goodness. part# 8000H7800

Wheels were $2400, front caliper/rotor $700. Scored the bro14 master cyl used for $100...brakes are worth every penny! Alpinas...ah, they are light and get everyone's attention. Just as good as any ol set of excels

MUCH better than Excel.. Stronger, lighter, and tubeless. Can't go wrong with Alpina STS wheels

Same goes for the Beringers! I started with just swapping to a Beringer cast iron rotor, just by doing that I noticed a difference from the OEM stainless steel. Next plan is 6 piston caliper and MC to complete what is the best brake package available.

 

[joe mo]

yeah will go for a look see what its all about will be fun to have a go on a track and actully pull some nice angles and learn some tarmac skill haha what do u do about tyres have u got some stickies to run on track days???
also where did u get ur rubber band protector for u pipe from??

well I made the jump and bought a TC449 for all the reasons I stated earlier, I'll let you guys know how it does. Converted it over the past 24 hrs and here is the finished product. Track day tomorrow, time to see how it does compared to my 511.

so i waited 7 weeks for my arrow to come in from italy. i cant say i am extremely happy with the price, however annoyed with how long it took to come in.

then i threw it up on the shops dyno and tuned the bazzaz i threw on it.

wow.. way more power everywhere, i've been struggling to keep the front wheel off the ground

then my husky special parts came in today. white plastics and matching graphics... i love how it looks.

will post the dyno graph and the map later.

I'm curious as to why you went with arrow over the factory akrapovic? Thanks much.

Really curious to see the dyno graph... Have a PCV, FMF and a free flow filter on the way

 

[Jrk2478]
