heavy ass tires..... personally would never need to run them tanks. If you're worried about punctures there are plenty of options... foam inserts, tire balls...etc.
I’m in Ohio as well, where are you located? I have 2-450Rs. The 18’ is stock that I’m about to mod. The 2010 is fully built. We should hook up and ride? Your 450 looks and sounds amazing and of course I love the Banshee as well!!! 👍
@@350iroc9 I haven’t been to Wayne in 20 years. Is it still pretty good? I’ve been too Perry State Forest a few times. It’s pretty good. Yes I would love to go with ya guys
@@abe3212 Yes those settings are working good but I really need to find a dyno tuner to be 100% confident these settings are correct. Reading a 4-stroke spark plug is not the same as a 2 stroke plug. Additionally when you use a high flow exhaust your always going to get a little bit of popping at times when decelerating. All in all though the Vortex is mandatory in my opinion for the 450.
Finally what maps u use bro still 7,7,7 map 7? I have rossier r5 and I just wait for the vortex next week and I don’t know what maps I need to use ? (I just going to take out the top lid of the air filter for know ) any recommendation ?
So I'm currently running map 5 at 7,7,6. Map 7 seamed to eat way more fuel because its a high compression map. Map 5 is the same as map 9 but with the lower rev limit. If you have a dyno tuner close to you its highly recommended and will certainly ease your mind. Remember that your bike is lean from the factory so your only helping it even with the stock settings of Map 1 5,5,5.
Love your videos sir! I’m in the process of installing the big three today and having an issue installing the RP RACE REGULAR exhaust system. Any tips on how to weave or wiggle the header pipe to clear the rear shock and or other items in the way? I know you bought rossier engineering. Any tips or tricks will greatly be appreciated! Also, the RP RACE INTAKE SYSTEM, it won’t seat properly and won’t align with the OEM subframe bolt holes to secure it. How did you get it to install on your bike?
Hi and thank you for the question but as you noted I only have experience with the Rossier brand of exahaust. As I look at mine I can tell you its a two piece system. I inserted the back of the head pipe in first in between the right side of the frame and the rear shock. Second step loosly bolt the head pipe to the head making sure to tighten each one of the two exhaust stud nuts evenly. Lastly fit on the exahaust can assembly to your loosly installed head pipe and snug everything down. Use lock tight on the bolt(s) that hold the exahust can to the frame. Just take your time and don't force anything. Have fun with it and make sure everything is tight and right. Congradualations on your new purchases and the new found power!
Thank you for the update! None of the rp parts worked. The owner was involved and he graciously allowed me to to return the parts even sent me a return shipping label. Wow! So I’m left with the fci intake or a RRP trash panda intake. I’m leaning toward the fci because it’s been proven for years. The other one is too new to tell. Last, I opted to go for the full stainless yoshimura system for exhaust. The rossier was too long on the wait. I’ll keep you posted on how it works soon!
@@mchevownr Well I'm certainly glad you were able to work out a return that's great. We still need more details on why exactly the parts combination didn't work out though. Just as you visited this video for insight its important we go full circle regarding the circumstances for others to understand. The RP intake should of included a 4in blue flexable boot that connects directly to the throttlebody with a clamp. The key words are 4in and flexable. Is this the point you got hung up at? You stated there was a existing bolt in the way preventing the install but we need clarification on what part of the intake was being obstructed (the blue intake boot or the main body of the intake itself?) What was the bolt in the way being used to hold together or its precise location? Secondly to the RP exahust system. Did the owner of RP state that their system is not designed to work in conjunction with the stock YFZ shock creating the clearence issues? If I were you knowing what I know about the challenges you will face installing the FCI, I would opt for a simple Pro-Flow adapter to get rid of the restritive cone screen and mount a K&N or UNI style filter. This will allow for the stock air boot to be used while allowing the sensor to remain safe. The results will increase air flow and utilize the stock airbox. Additionally the filter will mount in a normal fashion as I explained in the video. You can run with the lid off or opt for the cutout as I did.

You can but you won't get the increased airflow that the Fuel Custom's intake provides. The stock intake is a bottleneck in the system and restricts the airflow.
Hey bro on the intake what’s did u do to the hoses that can off the stock air box I just put the same intake on now I got 3 hoses hanging I’m looking around to see what to do with them
Hi Marcos. The one hose that went to the rubber intake boot is a water drain line you don't need anymore. The second and third should of been to the oil breather box (AIS) that I connected to the new 38 motor sports breather box.
Hi Efren. Because it wasn't the most enjoyable install I've ever done I really don't want to take it off to put it back on to make an install video. I'm new to the 450R and learning myself. I can tell you that he issue was all of the wires in the way when attempting to tighten the clamp to the throttle body side. The clamp that Fuel Customs sends you kind of sucks. I ended up deciding to reuse the stock Yamaha clamp that uses a small allen key head. If you go this route though make sure you use an allen key with the rounded style head. This will allow you to get a better angle on it for tightening because there just isn't much room to work and its extremely hard to see in there. Did you get the air box version? Did you already relocate the oil breather box? Do you have any specific questions or concerns on the install?
@@350iroc9 I need to relocate the oil breather box and yes I got the air box version of it. It’s cool I get you bro, I’m just more comfortable seeing someone else do it but thanks for the advice I really appreciate it.
@@350iroc9 Bro hopefully you can answer me soon so I can go riding already. Lol What’s the rubber hose on the bottom of the air intake tube for? Where do I connect that at?
@@efrenrodriguez741 Hi Efren, Looking at my stock intake boot I can see what you are referencing. That hose is designed to be a drain in case water got past the filter system. Since the Fuel Customs intake has no previsions for this hose you can simply remove it.
I also have a 2020 yfz450r and have the custom fuels intake. But I can't physically get it installed on the throttle body because the way the throttle body sits. Did you adjust yours?
Anthony try disconnecting the wires to the TPS plug and any of the plastic shielding near it. Take your time you can't afford to not get it to slip on the throttle body correctly. Make sure you have plenty of light to see what you are doing.
@@BOOTSY24100 Man I like Hinson but I feel like I would have to get the entire $1,100 kit then! Plus all the work still needed to transfer the primary drive gear to the Hinson basket. I don't think they even include the lock washer or the new thrust washer. This is starting to remind me of a Harley Davidson. Bring it home, take all the new stuff off and put other new stuff on..LOL
@@350iroc9 yep a lot of yfz450r owners are doing it if not it's going to cost over $1100 I was reading about the 09-10 culth basket. That's really the only thing that have to be changed along with the washer. If I buy the parts my Yamaha shop would charge me $300 to put it in looking at $700. Try looking for the 09-10 culth basket for the yfz450r.
@@BOOTSY24100 I can get the (3) parts for $330.00 and put it in myself no problem. I'm not interested in $1,100 and a tow of shame back to camp! Thanks brother I'm all in!
I took the stock breather box and placed it in a storage box and put it on the shelf. The 38 Motorsports oil breather replaced it so it's no longer needed. The FCI doesn't make any consessions for the stock breather box and actually I didn't know that until I got it.
So I did do it right away! I have a buddy with a 2017 that let go twice on him! The first time it happened Yamaha covered it under warranty but the second time he was on his own and did a ton of damage. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night with the stock clutch basket! Highly recommend because $400 can save you thousands $$. Also to note I can't even notice the difference using the non-slipper version! Thanks for watching and don't forget to get a new gasket!
@@yahirbarragan6630 So this issue can happen to anyone any year 2014+. The problem is that one of the springs can slip out of the backing plate destroying everything. My buddy is not a track guy and just like you rides in back yards but still has fun with it. I think it should be a recall myself. Imagine if your drive train just locked up when you weren't expecting it! When I first heard about this issue I said the same you did. My mind changed when my buddy showed me the pics of the damage to his machine. Honestly I placed my order that day! Again it happened to him twice and the first time Yamaha footed the bill and did all the work! If nothing else you should call Yamaha and express your concerns. A quad can be replaced but we mortals can't. The whole thing is aggravating but another $400 added to the thousands for piece of mind is priceless in my opinion. These things really are money pits but I still love'em.
Sweet ride brother! Hey I got a question, I ride a 2016 Yfz 450r SE & i want to add a K&N air intake too! Where you get yours from? I can only find 2003-2009 K&N airtakes & I’m not sure if they fit my year! Thanks & sweet ride bro!
According to the K&N website you should be able to use YA-4504 K&N REPLACEMENT AIR FILTER for the 2016 450R. The one I purchased comes with the Fuel Custom's intake and doesn't utilize a center pin mount like the stock setup but a pipe clamp collar. The Fuel Custom's K&N is kinda large and a bit of a pain to secure with the air box option. If you are looking for a second opinion then Prodesign has a solution but you have to drill out the rivets holding the cone shaped screen and remove it to bolt on their Billet flange system that will accommodate a K&N. Always run a filter precharger with K&N filters. I've used K&N for years but I also clean them after every weekend trip. The K&N spray cleaner in the black bottle is the best and definitely recommend. Then lightly coat with their spray on oil.
GLAMIS is life! I’ve got a 2018 stock but i wanna put some upgrades. Can you or someone tell me, do i have to get it tuned if i put an aftermarket exhaust on? I’ve seen people say yes and I’ve seen people say no.
GLAMIS is like church for the soul! If you have an all stock machine and put on an exhaust you will need either a fuel management controller or a Vortex ECU. If you don't you will be running lean with no way of correcting it. You'll know your lean because the motor will pop when riding. An exhaust will also demand more air flowing in to keep the balance. Without more air you won't get the full benefit of the exhaust (except for the sound). Either remove the air box lid all together -or- if I had to do it again I think I would go with the EHS Racing stock air box cutout/cover. This $90.00 kit will provide open box performance and closed box protection. Although I'm impressed with the FCI intakes performance, I'm less than impressed in the way it was engineered. It loosened up on me in Glamis and was lucky to notice. To tighten it back up is a nightmare because there is little room to do anything on these quads. I myself though and to take the mystery out of proper tuning am seeking a dyno shop in my area. I think I'm close but would prefer to be exact. Also and as an FYI - its imperative to check the voltage output of your TPS sensor. This should be the first thing you do before any upgrades. So many owners are reporting the TPS is out of spec right from the factory. According to the Yamaha service manual it should be .679 to .681. Hope this helps, thank you for the comments and best wishes on your path to the BIG 3!!!!
With the BIG3 I was able to pull Raptors up Oldsmobile Hill in Glamis every time. My group didn't have any TRX450's to compare it to unfortunately. The only machine that was able to squeak out a win on me was a KTM 505SX.
@@350iroc9 what fuel controller did you get with this pipe? And is that all you had to do to run this pipe? No engine mods? I know some pipes require all kinds of stuff
@@Jesusiskingamen7 I have the Voxtex X10 ECU currently set to map 5 - 6, 6, 6, - The Vortex X10 replaces the stock ECU and allows you to control the fuel directly from it eliminating the need for an add-on fuel controller. My quad just needed a bit more fuel so I turned the stock base line settings regarding Lo-Mid-HI from 5,5,5, to 6,6,6. Map 5 is a power map for engines that have stock compression as mine does. I have zero motor work done just a Fuel Customs intake the exhaust and the Vortex x10 making the BIG3! You will require some form of high flow intake system because more air out needs more air in. I do not recommend the Fuel Customs intake only due to its design not its performance. Honestly the quad runs perfectly with this setup. Plenty of power with no popping, no bog and good MPG running 93 pump gas. Thanks for watching!
Here is the manufactures website: hiper-technology.com/hiper-wheels I went with these specs below. I purchased all 4 of them from ATV Galaxy on e-Bay for around $800 Front: 10"x5" 3+2 offset Rear: 9"x8" 3+5 offset
Hi Cris. I only removed all the plastics to make this video but I am using the plastics to ride. Because apparently have an ATV addiction I did recently purchase a second set of plastics in the 2014 Special edition colors (Yellow front - Black rear) and the front assembly was only $95 brand new from Partzilla.
You guys are awesome! I actually asked Santa for the Precision Stabilizer and is why I didn't put the plastic back on. Great suggestion and hope to have this one on before New Years!!
I want to also say be careful and take your time installing a FCI intake system. It absolutely sucks to install properly. For piece of mind and ease of installation I 100% recommend removing the rear shock first! This will allow you to properly get your hands in there to insure the rubber boot is installed tight and right on the throttle body opening. After my first attempt to install the FCI I noticed that it became loose and that's when I decided to remove the rear shock and do it the right way. It since has never come loose again. I'll also caution you about the air sensor that mounts to the FCI. If you don't have it positioned correctly you can snap it off when putting your seat back on so please be aware and good luck brother!
@@yahirbarragan6630 Its super easy to remove the rear shock. Plus it gives you the opportunity to lube up all the linkage bearings while its out. Again I highly recommend doing it this way. The last thing you want is an air leak because dirt and water will enter the motor. Without room to get your hands on things let alone see what your doing is a recipe for disaster bro.
@@350iroc9 thanks man I will try to do that just also got the vortex in today and running 91 octane what time should I use also what’s better was deciding on getting rossier or empire not sure which one ?
BIG 3 means - Intake , exhaust and a fuel management system upgrade. These 3 things alone will unlock your quads true potential as the factory intended. Because of EPA restrictions these quads are sent out in kitten mode but can be turned into a lion with the BIG 3!
Yes I did but my footage was corrupted by a hand held metal detector at the airport (thank you TSA!). This time I'll upload everything before entering the airport! I'm actually going back the 25th of this month for a week! We have 25 guys going this trip can't wait!!!
@@xopepa1978 You will also need to remove the AIS system with a block off plate and get a oil breather box. These are both available at 38 motorsports. If you decide to do the FCI and exhaust you will also need either a Vortex X10 or have your stock computer reprogrammed.
You certainly can but I would recommend the airbox version. The FCI airbox has no lid so it lets in plenty of air anyway. Additionally the airbox version also acts as a kind of support for the FCI. Lets say hypothetically if the FCI were to come loose from the throttle-body the airbox would prevent it from completely falling off. I've mentioned a few times now that when you go to install the FCI to do yourself a favor and remove the rear shock. This will allow you to get your eyes and hands in there to properly connect the FCI's rubber boot to the throttle-body. This little bit of extra time and effort is worth it 100%. The first time I installed the FCI I thought it was on there tight but it wasn't. Removing the rear shock is the only way to go and will insure its mounted tight and right!

I don't think they even include the lock washer or the new thrust washer. This is starting to remind me of a Harley Davidson. Bring it home, take all the new stuff off and put other new stuff on..LOL
@@350iroc9 yep a lot of yfz450r owners are doing it if not it's going to cost over $1100 I was reading about the 09-10 culth basket. That's really the only thing that have to be changed along with the washer. If I buy the parts my Yamaha shop would charge me $300 to put it in looking at $700. Try looking for the 09-10 culth basket for the yfz450r.
@@BOOTSY24100 I can get the (3) parts for $330.00 and put it in myself no problem. I'm not interested in $1,100 and a tow of shame back to camp! Thanks brother I'm all in!
Nice build man. What did u do with the stock breather box when u put the FCI in?
I took the stock breather box and placed it in a storage box and put it on the shelf. The 38 Motorsports oil breather replaced it so it's no longer needed. The FCI doesn't make any consessions for the stock breather box and actually I didn't know that until I got it.
Did you ever do clutch basket change heard it’s like a ticking time bomb 😅 not sure if I should get one and don’t really want to spend like 400
So I did do it right away! I have a buddy with a 2017 that let go twice on him! The first time it happened Yamaha covered it under warranty but the second time he was on his own and did a ton of damage. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night with the stock clutch basket! Highly recommend because $400 can save you thousands $$. Also to note I can't even notice the difference using the non-slipper version! Thanks for watching and don't forget to get a new gasket!
@@350iroc9 oh alr but is this tended to people who race because I only ride around my property I don’t go on trails or racing on dunes?
@@yahirbarragan6630 So this issue can happen to anyone any year 2014+. The problem is that one of the springs can slip out of the backing plate destroying everything. My buddy is not a track guy and just like you rides in back yards but still has fun with it. I think it should be a recall myself. Imagine if your drive train just locked up when you weren't expecting it! When I first heard about this issue I said the same you did. My mind changed when my buddy showed me the pics of the damage to his machine. Honestly I placed my order that day! Again it happened to him twice and the first time Yamaha footed the bill and did all the work! If nothing else you should call Yamaha and express your concerns. A quad can be replaced but we mortals can't. The whole thing is aggravating but another $400 added to the thousands for piece of mind is priceless in my opinion. These things really are money pits but I still love'em.
Can you put the names and website to everything you bought

Yamaha YFZ450R 14 up Clutch Basket Upgrade Kit

Thanks for watching!
Sweet ride brother! Hey I got a question, I ride a 2016 Yfz 450r SE & i want to add a K&N air intake too! Where you get yours from? I can only find 2003-2009 K&N airtakes & I’m not sure if they fit my year! Thanks & sweet ride bro!
According to the K&N website you should be able to use YA-4504 K&N REPLACEMENT AIR FILTER for the 2016 450R. The one I purchased comes with the Fuel Custom's intake and doesn't utilize a center pin mount like the stock setup but a pipe clamp collar. The Fuel Custom's K&N is kinda large and a bit of a pain to secure with the air box option.
If you are looking for a second opinion then Prodesign has a solution but you have to drill out the rivets holding the cone shaped screen and remove it to bolt on their Billet flange system that will accommodate a K&N. Always run a filter precharger with K&N filters. I've used K&N for years but I also clean them after every weekend trip. The K&N spray cleaner in the black bottle is the best and definitely recommend. Then lightly coat with their spray on oil.

GLAMIS is life! I’ve got a 2018 stock but i wanna put some upgrades. Can you or someone tell me, do i have to get it tuned if i put an aftermarket exhaust on? I’ve seen people say yes and I’ve seen people say no.
GLAMIS is like church for the soul! If you have an all stock machine and put on an exhaust you will need either a fuel management controller or a Vortex ECU. If you don't you will be running lean with no way of correcting it. You'll know your lean because the motor will pop when riding. An exhaust will also demand more air flowing in to keep the balance. Without more air you won't get the full benefit of the exhaust (except for the sound). Either remove the air box lid all together -or- if I had to do it again I think I would go with the EHS Racing stock air box cutout/cover. This $90.00 kit will provide open box performance and closed box protection. Although I'm impressed with the FCI intakes performance, I'm less than impressed in the way it was engineered. It loosened up on me in Glamis and was lucky to notice. To tighten it back up is a nightmare because there is little room to do anything on these quads. I myself though and to take the mystery out of proper tuning am seeking a dyno shop in my area. I think I'm close but would prefer to be exact. Also and as an FYI - its imperative to check the voltage output of your TPS sensor. This should be the first thing you do before any upgrades. So many owners are reporting the TPS is out of spec right from the factory. According to the Yamaha service manual it should be .679 to .681. Hope this helps, thank you for the comments and best wishes on your path to the BIG 3!!!!
Nice i got the same quad but all stock. And sheesh i just came back from glamis like it but whats some upgrades i can do to it.
Are you happy with your machine in stock form? How did it perform in Glamis?
I like it just needs a little more power through it. And it hand alright
Ohhhh daddy tell me more lol
this guy is older bart simson
That's a new one but can see where you would think that. LOL Thanks for the comment!
Do u think it can beat a raptor or trx450 with your big 3 setup? Anyone knows please let me know I want a yfz but I want the speed of a raptor
With the BIG3 I was able to pull Raptors up Oldsmobile Hill in Glamis every time. My group didn't have any TRX450's to compare it to unfortunately. The only machine that was able to squeak out a win on me was a KTM 505SX.

@@350iroc9 what fuel controller did you get with this pipe? And is that all you had to do to run this pipe? No engine mods? I know some pipes require all kinds of stuff
@@Jesusiskingamen7 I have the Voxtex X10 ECU currently set to map 5 - 6, 6, 6, - The Vortex X10 replaces the stock ECU and allows you to control the fuel directly from it eliminating the need for an add-on fuel controller. My quad just needed a bit more fuel so I turned the stock base line settings regarding Lo-Mid-HI from 5,5,5, to 6,6,6. Map 5 is a power map for engines that have stock compression as mine does. I have zero motor work done just a Fuel Customs intake the exhaust and the Vortex x10 making the BIG3! You will require some form of high flow intake system because more air out needs more air in. I do not recommend the Fuel Customs intake only due to its design not its performance. Honestly the quad runs perfectly with this setup. Plenty of power with no popping, no bog and good MPG running 93 pump gas. Thanks for watching!

Get a precision steering stabilizer
You guys are awesome! I actually asked Santa for the Precision Stabilizer and is why I didn't put the plastic back on. Great suggestion and hope to have this one on before New Years!!
Bro got a fci intake and came with this hose not sure what’s it’s for ?
I'm going to say it shouldn't of been included. There is no reason to have a hose of any kind unless you still have the AIS system intact?
I want to also say be careful and take your time installing a FCI intake system. It absolutely sucks to install properly. For piece of mind and ease of installation I 100% recommend removing the rear shock first! This will allow you to properly get your hands in there to insure the rubber boot is installed tight and right on the throttle body opening. After my first attempt to install the FCI I noticed that it became loose and that's when I decided to remove the rear shock and do it the right way. It since has never come loose again. I'll also caution you about the air sensor that mounts to the FCI. If you don't have it positioned correctly you can snap it off when putting your seat back on so please be aware and good luck brother!
@@350iroc9 lol yeah first time not sure how it will go but not trying to remove the shock since I never have
@@yahirbarragan6630 Its super easy to remove the rear shock. Plus it gives you the opportunity to lube up all the linkage bearings while its out. Again I highly recommend doing it this way. The last thing you want is an air leak because dirt and water will enter the motor. Without room to get your hands on things let alone see what your doing is a recipe for disaster bro.
@@350iroc9 thanks man I will try to do that just also got the vortex in today and running 91 octane what time should I use also what’s better was deciding on getting rossier or empire not sure which one ?
What big 3 means
BIG 3 means - Intake , exhaust and a fuel management system upgrade. These 3 things alone will unlock your quads true potential as the factory intended. Because of EPA restrictions these quads are sent out in kitten mode but can be turned into a lion with the BIG 3!
@@350iroc9 I’m going to do these upgrades before I build the motor thanks a lot
Did you end up going to glamis ?
Yes I did but my footage was corrupted by a hand held metal detector at the airport (thank you TSA!). This time I'll upload everything before entering the airport! I'm actually going back the 25th of this month for a week! We have 25 guys going this trip can't wait!!!

can i run fci with no airbox
Yes you can. They sell a no air box version also.
@@350iroc9 as long as im not in real dirty dusty areas i should be good?
@@350iroc9 and also another question can i only do full exhaust and fci
@@xopepa1978 You will also need to remove the AIS system with a block off plate and get a oil breather box. These are both available at 38 motorsports. If you decide to do the FCI and exhaust you will also need either a Vortex X10 or have your stock computer reprogrammed.
You certainly can but I would recommend the airbox version. The FCI airbox has no lid so it lets in plenty of air anyway. Additionally the airbox version also acts as a kind of support for the FCI. Lets say hypothetically if the FCI were to come loose from the throttle-body the airbox would prevent it from completely falling off. I've mentioned a few times now that when you go to install the FCI to do yourself a favor and remove the rear shock. This will allow you to get your eyes and hands in there to properly connect the FCI's rubber boot to the throttle-body. This little bit of extra time and effort is worth it 100%. The first time I installed the FCI I thought it was on there tight but it wasn't. Removing the rear shock is the only way to go and will insure its mounted tight and right!
