Introduction
Release 1.01
MXL Plug&Play kit for Yamaha R1/R6 is the dash (with data acquisition in Pista version)
designed and developed for an easy and quick installation: with the minimum effort it will
be possible to connect directly to the bike ECU and visualize (with no need of additional
sensors):
• RPM
• Speed
• Water temperature
• Air temperature
Through the bike stock sensor it will be possible to sample:
• Oil level
• Fuel level
• Turning lights signal
• High beam signal
• Neutral signal)
• Battery charge level
MXL, like the stock dash is powered by the bike master switch.
MXL Strada, Pista kits for Yamaha here described have been developed for the following
bike models:
Model Year 2004 Year 2005 Year 2006
R1
R6
9 9 9
9 9 z
9 = supported
z = non supported
Note: thanks to the infrared transmitter/receiver (included in kit MXL Pista kit, optional to
MXL Strada kit), lap times will be shown/recorded. MXL Pista, moreover, allows to
manage and record data coming from 5 external configurable channels (potentiometers
suspensions, throttle sensor, brake pressure sensor, etc…).
MXL Plug&Play for Yamaha R1 2004/2005/2006 and Yamaha R6 2004/2005 has three
different operating mode:
• Running mode: is the standard mode that shows and, if connected to an MXL
Pista records, data out coming from the engine and diagnosis codes;
•Setting mode: this mode allows to set some engine parameters. Setting mode
allows to modify the ECU mapping.
•Diagnostic mode: this mode allows to manage ECU problems and errors.
For what not expressly explained in this tutorial refer to MXL and/or Race Studio
Configuration user manuals.

Chapter 2 – Plug&Play kit installation
Release 1.01
MXL Plug&Play kit for Yamaha R1/R6 has been expressly designed to guarantee
maximum installation easiness.
Please note: this kit has been expressly tested to guarantee total compatibility with
a stock bike completely corresponding to the one sold by the manufacturer. The
only compatible variation is the original YEK (Yamaha Engineering Corporation) kit.
Through the four fixing points on the product rear it is possible to substitute the original
dash in an easy and quick way with no need of bending, cutting or drilling anything: each
component is “Plug&Play”.
The system is to be connected to the high beam chassis using the bracket included in the
kit. This last is in black anodised aluminium, light weight and mechanically resistant.
GENERAL NOTES – Read these notes before installing the kit.
• Do not cut any cable: the wirings included in the kit are Plug&Play;
• be careful not to damage the stock connectors while plugging/unplugging them;
• do not install the system when the engine is hot;
• be careful not to lose screws and washers.
After having removed the stock dash:
• fix MXL to the bracket using the 4 supports highlighted in the below image;
• connect the wiring to the two connectors as explained in the below image.

equipped with original YEC (Yamaha Engineering Corporation) kit. Once the bike powered
on, MXL automatically recognizes and shows on the display the kind of ECU installed.
Supported ECUs are:
• Standard ECU (stock): the display shows “ECU MODEL STD” (image below on the
left);
• YEC kit (YEC ECU): the display shows “ECU MODEL KIT” (image below on the
right).

MXL Strada/ Pista can show on the display the engaged gear.
At first start up MXL starts gear calibration and shows “RUNNING GEAR CAL” on the
display bottom string.
Warning
• For MXL to show engaged gear it is necessary to perform “Gear calibration
procedure”. Refer to Race Studio configuration user manual to know how to
do it.
• In case crown/pinion ratio has been changed a new calibration and a new
gear calculation is to be done.
• Refer to Race Studio Configuration user manual for further information
concerning gear sensor calibration and gear calculation.
MXL can be configured only using a PC and Race Studio 2 software (included in the kit).
To connect MXL to the PC use the proper USB cable included in the kit.
For any further information concerning Race Studio 2 software installation and
functionalities refer to the related user manual.
When a test session is over it is possible to download stored data (MXL Pista only) and
save them in the database integrated in Race Studio 2 software.
