Overview
STAGE 1
Benefits
The 2025 BMW S1000R has gone through a couple changes. We have a revised look, a little more power, and new software/features! BMW gave this model a couple more HP and the 58* throttle (new for 2025). Utilizing our decade of experience and research with the BMW platform has helped us develop the 2025 Single R Stage 1 Flash. US and European model S1000R’s have been restricted from the factory, with the US models having some of the worst restrictions we have ever seen on a BMW liter bike short of the 2017+ BMW K1600.
What's Being Restricted?
- Throttle Restriction - Throttle is restricted and has a lazy feel on tip-in riding along with loss of power in certain gears / RPM's
- Exhaust Valve - Restricted to keep quieter, which results in power loss
- RPM Limiter - The stock RPM limiter is set to 12,000 RPM and cuts the powerband off too soon
- Fueling - The 2021+ BMW S1000R fueling is set rich from the factory and needs adjustment
- Heat Management - The S1000R feels hot and runs hot
What Do We Do To Fix These Issues?
- Throttle Restriction - We remove the throttle restrictions across the board to give you the riding experience and power you wanted from the factory
- Exhaust Valve - We still utilize the stock exhaust valve to give you maximum power but also open it up when you need to make peak power gains
- RPM Limiter - We moved the limiter from the stock 12,000RPM to 12,500RPM (optional) to maximize your powerband
- Fueling - We program the S1000R to target a better AFR (Air/Fuel Ratio) to make a little more power along with fixing drivability and idle issues
- Heat management - We turn the fans on early and adjust the fueling to a proper ratio to make for a cooler running, more consistent bike.
- 8% horsepower gain across the RPM range
- Horsepower gained from exhaust valve management
- Cooler riding temps
- Startup strategy issues solved. Idle is smooth and consistent
- Improved throttle response in all gears
- Longer powerband from increased RPM limiter

Custom tuning at your finger tips on your schedule. Read and write your own motorcycles ecu in the comfort of your home.

CAN I JUST SEND IN MY ECU FOR FLASHING AND SPEND LESS? LET'S SEE THE BREAKDOWN.
- NO DOWNTIME - No need to send in your ECU or remove it from your bike at all. You order the handheld, it get's delivered to you nearly instantly, and you flash your bike on your time easily. You never miss a day of riding and no effort removing the ECU. Any issues, you can revert back to the full stock state.
- READ AND CLEAR CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS - Full diagnostic of the ecu including the device.
- STORE MULTIPLE MAPS - When you send in your ECU, you only get one map. You might be thinking, "why would I need more than one map?". Storing multiple maps means you're able to flash for different configurations. If you're a serious track competitor, we can work with you to get you different mapping for different tracks. If, for example, you're add modifications to your stock bike, we can email you a file that takes the new exhaust into account with the changes you need to optimize your bike's new modifications with no mailing needed.
- GO BACK TO STOCK ANYTIME - Not only can you store multiple files, you can also flash the original, stock file back into the bike at any time and for any reason for service, sales, and more.
- ABILITY TO TUNE FUTURE BIKES - Customers swap bikes all the time! With our handheld tuner, you are able to put the first bike back to stock, then reset the device and use the same device on your next bike, with a simple and low cost transfer fee.
