Full power. V.. Normal power

Just pulled the intake pipe off to check the blow off valve (all ok so not that) and boost leaks with the smoke machine and no leaks.
The exit for the blow off valve is now behind the filter directly into the turbine so no annoying noise on 2019 bikes on the over run

Can you post a picture of that please?

Sorry, all back together now...... such a pain for such a simple job (filter change)

The filter change on this bike is easier than any other bike I've owned other than an old carbureted Kawasaki LTD that had pod filters on the carb.

Most bikes you had to take the seat off which often requires removing bolts on those, remove the fairing trim pieces around the gas tank, remove the gas tank then remove the airbox cover. The H2 SX I remove 1 trim piece and I think 3 bolts from the left fairing and I can then remove the the airfilter housing and bolts. Super easy.

Below 6000rpm there's no difference between the power modes

Well that explains it then, however that is an odd way to make a hi power bike easier in the hands of a novice or in bad weather........it’s the first 6k revs that will get you into trouble I would have thought

Hi Bengarsy, I have 2018 H2SXSE and on the over run I love the chirping sound! Are you saying the 2019 models do not chirp?

Mine makes no noise at all, on the dyno the operator said he could hear it but I couldn’t .
The 2018 makes loads of noise audible on vids on bike camera and ride by, mine makes non of those chirrup’s.... ever

I have found Yamaha’s the easiest and most sensible to work on over all. Now I have done it it’s not that big a deal but looked worse than it was. How does the tank come off on these?

Take the seats off just turning the key. Remove the trim fairings on the side of the tank I think it's 2 black ones a 2 green ones (on the SE). Remove two bolts at the front of the tank, but use a good hex key these bolts are in real tight and are kind of soft so they could strip out easily. You can lift the front of the tank slightly under the left side of the tank there are 2 vent hoses pop those off. You should be able to get to most stuff under the tank if you're just looking around. If you want to go further I suggest siphoning as much fuel out as possible. Grab some old rags. At the back of the tank there is a bracket holding the tank to the frame. Unbolt it from the frame i think it's 4 bolts. At the bottom rear of the tank you can see the fuel line, put a bunch of rags around that area. Remove that line gas is going to come out of the hose and tank. If you've drained most of the fuel out of the tank lifting the front and storing the front up vertical you will prevent most of the remaining fuel from leaking out.
