Kev is on a distinguished road
I worked for Suzuki & Yamaha for more than a decade running busy motorcycle workshops, as a responsible repairer you would look at the warranty claim & WORK OUT WHAT FAILED & WHY, these guys saying you have no warranty because you have fitted an after market parts are just trying scare tactics.

I bet you my full months wage that the dealers show room is full of after market parts including aftermarket filters, power commanders, exhausts ETC, as mentioned the problem of not been a warranty job would need to be determined to what actually failed if the aftermarket part caused the failure then I agree not under warranty. Any good dealer will do his best for the customer that is what I do for my 100 od customers a day I have running through my service department.

Over the past 7 years that I have been selling my mods around the world I have not had one single claim rejected by Yamaha with my mods installed on a bike.

A Yamaha dealer here in Australia sell my O2 controller & fuel mods in their show room + KTM dealers also promote my O2 controllers, from yesterdays ebay sale.

Q: hey mate I have a 2013 690 smcr, I sorted out the surging by installing an EVO1 breather kit but my bike keeps stalling at low revs. would the o2 controller help with this problem? the boys at KTM team moto Virginia have said they highly recommend your product for the surging but unsure on stalling out at low revs. cheers mate. 07-Sep-13 A:

The O2 controller will correct the closed loop A/F ratio no matter what map or mod is fitted, the O2 controller has sorted a 2013 SD from stalling after fitting a EVO breather kit & free flow pipe. KTM run the closed loop mapping at idle as well so yours would be lean & might be the reason that it is stalling, if it is lean & that is the cause the controller should correct the lean idle A/F ratio. You are welcome to pop over to my house tomorrow to buy one & it if does not fix the stalling or you are not happy with the O2 controller mod I will give you your money back. Cheers Kev
