Technical MyRide app (Europe) - almost working

2 Upvotes

I got my R9 a few weeks ago and while using the MyRide app I noticed that it doesn’t work as it should (at least for me)

As far as I understand the app features automatic ride recording option - Start the bike up - phone connects- app starts recording- turn the bike off-phone disconnects- app stops recording and saves the ride… simple

first few rides were recorded successfully (automatically turned the recording on and then after the ride, turned off and saved) that was for the first 3 rides, then it just decided it wouldn’t work anymore no matter what. I can successfully connect to my R9 and receive notifications etc… but ride recording wouldn’t turn on automatically and when I turn it on manually then I have to turn it off manually as well… super annoying.

Since I’m using iPhone I set-up automatisation to open the MyRide app when Bluetooth connects to my motorcycle solving the problem with manual app opening before every ride but it still doesn’t want to record anything automatically.

Also I wasn’t successful with uploading YRC settings from app to bike, I can see the new profile I set up on the R9’s screen but it always throws an error when trying to upload to bike…

Anyone having same issues or it’s just me again? 😂😭

Technical Bike Limp at Stoplight

2 Upvotes

Got my R9 a month ago, put about 900 miles on it. Have followed the manual for break-in period.

Decided to put yoshi full exhaust on the bike and sent the ECU off to TST to get flashed for the exhaust. Got it back last week, reinstalled the computer and buttoned up the bike. CE light was on as expected with the flash, but it turned off after 3/4 ride sessions. Bike performed as expected otherwise.

Was taking it home yesterday afternoon and stopped at a light when the engine died while I was sitting there holding the clutch. I flipped the kill switch and turned it over again and it restarted, but the throttle was nonresponsive and that’s when I noticed the CE light was on. Coolant temp was like ~205°F so I don’t think it was an overheating problem. Hopped off and walked it to the shoulder and called tow service. I spun it up like 20 minutes later and tested the throttle in neutral and it revved but CE light was still on, so I took the bike off the side of the street and put it in a parking lot to wait for the truck.

Anybody experience anything like this with their R9 or other bikes? I’ve only been turning wrenches on my own bikes for about a year so it’s possible I fucked up the exhaust install, and I’ve never flashed an ECU before so I don’t know if this could be a symptom of something wrong with that. Would assume that the ECU flash means I can’t ask Yamaha to honor the warranty so I’ll have to just take these lumps.

I did check the o2 sensors to make sure it didn’t come loose or something but all good. Ordered a code reader but it won’t be here for a few days, so crowd-sourcing thoughts on potential issues.

Technical Cruise control

Yesterday cruise control stopped working. Turns out the clutch switch under the lever wasn't getting fully depressed. Lubed the clutch cable and lever and it started working again. Thought I'd share this simple fix in case anyone else's cruise control stops working.

Technical Front axel torque

2 Upvotes

Yo,

Yesterday I changed my tires and ran into an issue with the torque specifications for the front axle. Unfortunately, the manual only lists the values for the rear axle.

These are the values I used:

Front axle (M16): 65 Nm Front axle pinch bolts (M8): 23 Nm Front brake caliper bolts (M10): 35 Nm

(From MT-09)

I would appreciate it if someone knows the correct values and could share them with me.

(If anyones interested in which tires I chose: Michelin Power GP2.)

Technical Anyone hardwired a Quad Lock to their R9 ignition? Looking for wiring pics/tips!

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m about to install the Quad Lock Waterproof Wireless Charger on my Yamaha R9, but I’m trying to avoid a direct-to-battery setup to save my battery from parasitic drain.

I’m looking to tap into a switched ignition source (so it only draws power when the bike is on). If you’ve already done this, could you share:

Where exactly did you tap in? (Aux plug behind the fairing, tail light circuit, headlight, etc.)

Photos of your wiring/tapped connection if you have them!

Any specific connectors or adapters you needed?

I've seen people mention the white accessory plugs, but I'd love to see how you actually routed the cables to keep it clean and out of the way of the forks.

Thanks in advance for the help!
