GTM Fuel Kit - E5 V85TT Performance Mods & Dyno graphs and PC6 info

I've had a vstrom 650, and sorry to say it will out perform a stock v85tt...that's not to lunch all over the v85tt, I own one
😃👍🏿 The fact is been a purely air-cooled, 2 valve pushrod engine - that's not the issue, but a factor regardless , but here is the main reason... choked, constrained, tuned to keep all levels and government agencies around the world happy with EPA and associated mandates.

This is what the problem is. Many many people find the performance fine and endearing in stock form, but of course when comparing to something else, even with less cc, you will be a little less excited😬👌

Is it fixable... absolutely and very easily with GTM's fuelling mods. I can and many others can vouch for the enormous improvement you will get if you are looking for performance. It is night and day and I can say for certainly without and doubt or hesitation, once done it would leave your vstrom650 in the past😃👍🏿

I can't say or recommend it enough, if you are looking for performance on your v85tt, you CANNOT go past GTM’s fuelling solution👍🏿👍🏿
 
Hi mates😃🍺👋, well after a shattered knee cap (patella) 9wks ago I'm back on my v85tt...so to make this quick as a continuous review for everyone's benefit, after having GTM’s setup and filling up some fresh juice in my v85tt and doing a tank full of rides with my "almost" normal - what's normal???? knee here isy AVG fuel consumption😃👌 Goes to show though more power needs more fuel, more go doesn't need as much throttle pull 😉🤙🏿 yes wasn't setting any speed records, this result is from normal everyday riding giving it a twist here and there. Thanks again GTM 🏍️💨

here isy AVG fuel consumptio
Thanks for the update, sorry to hear on the kneecap (ouch). You can’t use the dashboard for accurate consumption rates post fuel kit install. Do the math on distance/liters on your next fill and post. We’ve barely sold two full systems and kits this entire year so far. Just about to call it quits. People would rather buy from China and post on how well their sensor fooler does. No proof needed.
 
FWIW…I just did a 10700 km trip on my 2021 V85TT with the standard factory exhaust system and took VERY detailed fuel consumption and km traveled beteeen gas fill-ups.
Recently purchased a full GTM Werks exhaust system with the corresponding electronic bits too. I expect/hope to have all that installed by late February 2025. And have a similar 10000 km trip planned for March where I’ll also be taking detailed gas/km notes.
I’ll be sure to share all that data here.

Good thinking GTM😃👍🏿 and what a shame, it really has been the best $$$ I have spent on a motorcycle. Words cannot explain the improvement and benefits
