BT MOTO 2019-2022 Ducati V4R / SL Handheld Diagnostic Tool Stage 1

Stage 1

After almost a year of development the V4R / SL flash is here.  Through extensive testing we’ve managed to safety increase the performance of the motorcycle without compromising reliability.  We aren’t just talking about peak numbers here, we found power across the entire RPM range and better overall rideability.  Each change we’ve made improves the motorcycle not only in outright speed, but also smoothness and consistency at the track.  The result is our Stage 1 flash. This flash can also be used for the V4 Superleggera as both bikes share the exact same engine.

Why Is This The Best Upgrade You Can Buy?

Currently, there is only one option to flash the V4R and it requires the purchase of a FULL exhaust system. The changes in the flash are mostly fueling changes and can be VASTLY improved upon.  This flash cannot be purchased independently without the purchase of the exhaust system. So what do people that have slip-on exhaust do? There’s nothing they can do at the moment. Our diagnostic tool is the only option for people looking for a flash without the purchase of an exhaust.

With or without an exhaust flash, we all know the Ducati V4R / SL is a masterpiece! We also know it isn’t perfect. Issues that we’ve tested ourselves and what customers have reported include the following:

• There’s only one flash on the market and it requires you to spend thousands on a new exhaust system.
•  Stalling for no reason during idle
• Startup issues when exhaust is installed
• Acceleration that isn’t smooth through the entire RPM range or at low RPM (mainly with aftermarket exhaust)
• Engine seems to struggle (lurch or jump through RPM range) if too warm
• Power that seems “tame” compared to it its 1103cc brother, the V4
• Engine light appears after modified exhaust is installed

So What Do We Do About This?

After extensive R&D with the Ducati V4R / SL, we can confidently say that we successfully addressed each issue and improved every performance aspect of the V4R.

• No more stalling at idle for no reason
• No startup issues with exhaust installed
• Acceleration is now smooth through the entire RPM range with aftermarket exhaust
• Engine performs the same with the engine warm or hot and stays consistent

But I Already Have A Flash That Came With My Exhaust. Why Do I Need This?

When you buy an Akrapovic full system you get a map from the dealer to upload. You are not allowed to upload this yourself and technically the dealer isn’t allowed to upload it either (if your street bike is actually ridden on public roads). This exhaust is for off-road use only and is stipulated on the inside of both mufflers. The flash is very basic. Rev limit is increased, engine light from missing exhaust valve is turned off, AFR (air fuel ratio) is changed to accommodate the new exhaust and the ignition map is altered.  There’s no available updates or changes (should you decide to upgrade more engine components) and it’s made for pump fuel only.

Do You Have A Slip-On System? No Support For You!

There is absolutely NO support for ANY slip-on system or any second hand full exhaust system! If you switch systems this can cause a headache and most of the fuel devices or flashes on the market that claim to be in development have all but been abandon at this point.

When you buy any slip on system, including: Akrapovic, SC Project, AR Racing, Arrow, etc. There is NO tuning or flash solution. This means you get an exhaust valve code (check engine light on the dash, permanently), a 20hp/tq loss down low from lack of fuel (lean!). Fueling is so bad that some riders have gone back to stock. The bike surges and feels like something is wrong (because something IS wrong).

Our diagnostic tool allows the user the ability to use a slip-on or full system. We have extensively tested MANY exhaust systems and gathered data on what fueling changes to make. We also accommodate for multiple mod combinations and even different fuels! (91/93/100/MR12). Our Stage 1 flash will make you fall in love with your bike all over again.  See below for AFR mapping infograph.
