Pengeluar ECU TuneBoss, FSR Technology memperkembangkan ciri keselamatan motosikal dengan melancarkan ATAS (Accidental Throttle Activation Safety) khas bagi Yamaha 135LC Fi terbaru.
ATAS berfungsi dengan mengelakkan daripada pecutan yang tidak disengajakan sewaktu enjin dihidupkan tatkala penunggang tidak sedar motosikal berada dalam gear.
Menurut FSR Technology, sistem ATAS disertakan dalam ECU TuneBoss bagi 135LC Fi ini juga akan menyekat enjin daripada dihidupkan sekiranya mengesan ‘throttle’ dibuka 10 peratus.
Lampu enjin akan menyala bagi memaklumkan ‘throttle’ telah dibuka dan motosikal hanya boleh dihidupkan selepas ‘throttle’ berada di bawah 10 peratus.
Sementara tiu, ECU TuneBoss juga disertakan dengan ciri ‘Engine Immobilizer’ yang boleh diaktifkan menggnakan aplikasi TuneBoss Manager Pro.
Bagi yang berminat, ECU Stage 1 bagi Yamaha 135LC Fi ditawarkan pada harga RM399 dan boleh dinaik taraf ke Stage 2 yang memberikan julat penalaan yang lebih terperinci bagi pemetaan bahan api.
Menariknya, fungsi ATAS ini juga akan diserapkan kepada semua ECU TuneBoss secara standard bagi model lain pada masa akan datang.
Kurang beberapa minggu selepas Hong Leong Yamaha Motor (HLYM) melancarkan Yamaha 135LC Fi, pengeluar produk prestasi motosikal tempatan, TuneBoss telah pun sibuk melakukan beberapa ujian sains terhadap model popular itu.
Sewaktu pelancaran di Litar Antarabangsa Sepang pada 8 Mac lalu, kami juga berpeluang menguji kemampuan 135LC V8 itu di litar namun berbekalkan ketinggian 175cm dengan 88kg, ternyata cukup sukar nak capai 100km/j.
Bagaimanapun, bagi memberikan bukti yang lebih nyata, TuneBoss telah meletakkan 135LC V8 di atas mesin dyno dan hasilnya kapcai baharu itu merekodkan kelajuan maksima 126km/j.
Video berdurasi 1 minit 45 saat itu juga bukan sahaja memaparkan kelajuan maksima malah turut mendedahkan kuasa yang dihasilkan adalah pada 9.4hp lebih rendah berbanding angka atas kertas, 12.5hp.
Bagi tahun 2022, 135LC ini menerima kemas kini yang besar bermula dengan bahagian enjin yang kini dihidupakan dengan platform silinder tunggal 135cc SOCH dengan penyejukan cecair yang menjana 12.5hp pada 8,000rpm dan 12.2Nm pada 6,000rpm. Kuasa enjin kemudiannya disalurkan kepada tayar belakang menerusi transmisi 4-kelajuan.
Sistem pembakaran juga lebih efisien dengan bantuan suntikan bahan api (fuel injection) berbanding karburetor sebelum ini.
Untuk pasaran tempatan, Yamaha 135LC Fi ini ditawarkan pada harga RM7,798 (Standard) dan RM8,198 (SE).
FSR Technology kali ini memperkenalkan ShiftBoss 2.0 untuk pasaran tempatan.
ShiftBoss 2.0 ini merupakan sistem ‘quickshifter’ yang membolehkan penunggang menukar gear dengan pantas tanpa perlu menarik klac atau menutup ‘throttle’.
Menariknya, ShiftBoss 2.0 ini bukan sahaja boleh digunakan dengan ECU TuneBoss generasi kedua yang dilancarkan baru-baru ini malah boleh diselaraskan bersama TuneBoss generasi pertama.
ShiftBoss 2.0 ini membolehkan pemilik motosikal bersesaran 250cc ke bawah termasuk kapcai merasai fungsi yang sebelum ini hanya popular dikalangan motosikal berkuasa tinggi.
Menurut Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif FSR Technology, Farhan Ali, hasil pembangunan lebih 2 tahun, ShiftBoss 2.0 menawarkan tahap kebolehpercayaan yang lebih tinggi berbanding versi terdahulu.
“Sehingga hari ini, terdapat lebih dari 30,000 pengguna ECU TuneBoss sejak ia dilancarkan tujuh tahun yang lalu pada 30 Oktober 2014.
“Setakat ini, hanya sekitar 10% yang telah memasang modul quickshifter, ini mungkin disebabkan oleh kerana ShiftBoss versi lama hanya direka untuk dua model sahaja.
“Sekarang, selain dari dua model itu, iaitu Yamaha FZ150i dan Y15ZR, ShiftBoss 2.0 juga sesuai untuk model-model lain seperti R25, R15, MT-15, Y16 dan Honda RS150R,” jelasnya.
Pada masa sama, Farhan menjelaskan ShiftBoss 2.0 kali ini juga sangat mampu milik dan unik.
“Untuk sistem ShiftBoss 1.0, kami tidak menyedari bahawa betapa uniknya sistem itu, oleh itu kami tidak memohon perlindungan harta intelek (IP). Untuk ShiftBoss 2.0, kami telah belajar dari pengalaman. Kami tahu sistem kami unik dan inovatif dan kami telah mengambil langkah untuk memastikan IP kami dilindungi,” tambahnya.
ShiftBoss 2.0 ditawarkan pada harga RM250 namun pengguna ShiftBoss lama boleh menaik taraf ke versi baharu itu dengan kos RM100 sahaja.
Perlu diingatkan bahawa ShiftBoss 2.0 hanya boleh dipadankan bersama motosikal yang menggunakan ECU TuneBoss generasi pertama dan kedua sahaja.
FSR Technology has announced the second-generation TuneBoss ECU that promised to deliver a powerful result compared to its predecessor introduced back in 2014.
The Gen-2 TuneBoss ECU now features 3-Stage upgrade capabilities that deliver different performances according to the users’ preferences.
However, while it offers various stages, the second generation ECU is now affordable than ever, with the essential Stage-1 cost around RM200 cheaper than the previous generation ECU.
The price for the 2nd-gen TuneBoss ECU now starts at just RM299 (for Yamaha Lagenda and Honda Wave) and RM799 for the Yamaha R25 (compared to RM999 for the 1st-gen TuneBoss ECU).
According to FSR Technology CEO Farhan Ali, the focus for the 2nd-gen ECU was towards reliability and affordability.
“Our focus for the 2nd-gen was to make this technology and reliability more affordable, while at the same time offer new high-end features for more advanced customers.
“To achieve this, our new ECU starts at a significantly lower price but is upgradable three stages.
“When fully upgraded, it has more features and performance than our previous generation ECU,” he said.
Farhan added that users who seek a slight increase of power could opt for the Stage 1 package.
“Stage 1 is good enough for most users that want a bit more oomph out of their machine. Suitable for weekend track warriors who may have some light bolt-on performance bits on their bikes.
“Users who want substantial performance can simply upgrade to Stage 2, which unlocks features such as full fuel and ignition adjustments, Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) control, Throttle Acceleration Compensation and more by just adding RM200 to the basic Stage 1 price.”
Meanwhile, the new generation TuneBoss ECU is also available for the all-new Yamaha Y16ZR and MT15 with a starting price of RM399.
It was right before Christmas of 2019 when TuneBoss Malaysia (FSR Technology) launched their latest performance ECU for the popular Yamaha YZF-R15.

FSR Technology, the maker of TuneBoss donated RM 5000 to the #HelmetsOn Campaign.
The programme hopes to reach more than 200,000 children in 200 schools and equipping at least 50,000 children with correctly sized helmets.
Statistics show currently on 15% of Malaysian children wear proper safety gear while going to school.
FSR Technology, the company behind TuneBoss, recently donated RM5000 to the MyPerintis and BFM Radio’s #HelmetsOn Campaign.
A mock cheque presentation ceremony was held at the BFM radio office, in Menara Ken TTDI between Farhan Ali of FSR Technology to Dato Lawrance Low of MyPerintis on the 20th of November 2019.
“It is a way for us to give back to the community that helped us grow and this campaign allows us to be part of the solution, to help those who need it,” said Farhan, FSR Technology CEO.
In March 2019, MyPerintis, a non-governmental organisation, joined the Ministry of Education to launch a helmet and road safety campaign called the Adiwira Topi Keledar Pilot Programme.
The pilot campaign was a considerable success – distributing 1,500 helmets to 30 primary schools in Kota Bharu, Johor Bharu and Klang Valley, and educating over 27,000 children about the importance of helmets and road safety.
Following the successful pilot programme, the initiative has been renewed with the support of BFM89.9 in hopes of reaching more than 200,000 children in 200 schools nationwide and equipping at least 50,000 children with correctly sized helmets.
The campaign pledges to buy children motorcycle helmets at RM50 each, and to be given out to children in need of the safety device.
Statistics from the Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS) show that only 15% of Malaysian children wear proper safety gear when riding pillion on their way to school.
TuneBoss introduced new products at the 2018 Malaysian MotoGP.
The products will unlock the performance potential of stock motorcycles.
They include ECUs, quickshifters, electric water pump, fuel injector and fuel pump.
FSR Technology, our own Malaysian electronic tuning experts, revealed a range of new TuneBoss products at the recent 2018 Malaysian MotoGP.
The new products are:
High-performance ECUs;
ShiftBoss quickshifters;
CoolBoss electric water pump kit;
Racing fuel injector;
Racing fuel pump kit.
High-performance ECUs
There are four models specifically optimized for the Yamaha YZF-R15, Yamaha NMAX 155, Honda CBR250R and Honda CRF250. TuneBoss will announce the ECUs for motorcycle models based on the same platforms at a later date.
The price range of the new products are expected to be “within range of existing products.”
ShiftBoss quickshifters
Quickshifters are in demand from almost all current motorcyclists. TuneBoss responds by introducing the ShiftBoss for the Yamaha YZF-R25 and Honda RS150R. Unlike most aftermarket quickshifters, ShiftBoss includes a new load sensor for more precise gear shifts.
The new ShiftBoss products will be sold alongside current models and are priced between RM600 to RM800.
CoolBoss electric water pump kit
Traditional and stock water pumps rely on engine speed to circulate coolant. As such, the flow rate may not be sufficient, especially in the heat (pun intended) of competition.
The new CoolBoss electric water pump kit consists of an electric brushless water pump and smart algorithms to control the functions of the fan according to engine load and cooling needs. Such functions prolong the engine and engine oil lifespan.
Parasitic loss is also reduced. TuneBoss claims the CoolBoss kit gains 0.3 to 0.5 bhp throughout the rev range besides fuel savings.
The product will be available for the Yamaha YZF-R25 only from next year. It should be available for other motorcycles later.
TuneBoss Racing Fuel Injector
This product has been available in the market for a number of months now. This 370cc injector provides a super high flow rate with ultra-linear control. The injector is good for 15 to 40 bhp applications and is compatible with the Yamaha Y15ZR (1stmodel) and Yamaha FZ150i MY 2014 and MY 2016.
TuneBoss Racing Fuel Pump Kit
This product is an integrated system consisting of fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel lines and fuel injector. The kit was specifically developed for the Open Drag Bike Category. Racing fuel is allowed in this category.
The stainless-steel tank has a capacity of 3 litres and is specially treated to resist corrosion from racing fuels such as the Elixir Powered E85R or K2.
Conclusion
All the above add-on products are compatible with TuneBoss ECUs. They have been tested in various drag events and at the Sepang International Circuit before being made available to the buying public.
