Soo a couple questions that prolly have already been answered..ECU flash, If I'm not mistaken doesn't this void the factory warranty? Or is it like I can do with a car, reflash it back to stock and do a couple key cycles and it deletes it from memory?
Is the ECU required with the PCV? What are the negativities running just the PCV? if its a few HP I could really care less.
Currently I have the Two Brother Slip-ons and not sure who has map support, So Ivan, I am very interested in your product either way!
The way that warranty works in the US is that there would be no coverage if the failure is directly related to the modification.... In other words if it sucks a valve, throws a rod and the rev-limit is raised, then there would be no coverage..... If the wire harness melts or the stator fails, then the ECU has nothing to do with it.
The ECU could be sent back and flashed back to it's original configuration because each unit's owners name saved and numbered.... the ECU is also given a laser etched serial#.... this is used by Guhl to identify the ECU and the files inside. This may mess things up for someone who wants to decieve their dealer.
Doing my flash without raising the rev-limiter shouldn't affect the warranty on the engine.
It depends if you want the restrictions/emission regulated tuning removed from your bike.... No you don't need it done for 1/4 mile racing... for that you can just remove the flies and remap.... a lot of drag guys don't really care about driveability.
If you like the things I have listed below, then the flash is for you:
Flawless quality throttle and perfect response to the throttle, easy modulation while leaned way over without upsetting the your line.
Cooler running temps
No more safety mode when whacking the throttle open in the lower 3 gears (appx 30 hp here)
(even when you turn TC off - it's not really 100% off)
No more backfiring
No more having to turn the TC off every time you turn the key on... it will remember the last setting that you had it set to.
No more speed limiter
Raising the rev limiter with the proper tune will add another usable 500 rpm of adrenaline releasing power.
(This is optional with us)
I hope this answers your questions,
Ivan
