This was exactly the situation the tuner at JHS was talking about . He said many come in and express how happy they are with the generic tune ecu maps they have uploaded , or copied from another owner but can't understand the little foibles they are experiencing . Pulls like a train and howls at full rpm but stall at junctions or experience the odd miss . Most he said , when dynod are over fuelling majorly at low rpm or throttle closed , washing the cylinders but then at full chat are running seriously lean even tho the fuelling and af parameters are well within the safe range according to the tune ecu figures ! He also mentioned , never buy a KTM LC4 out of warranty . Apparently the parameters of the ecu are changed on a regular basis , so the owner has to return to the dealer for an update . Money , money , money and something more and more manufacturers are doing !

I just meant that with floor boards my leg might get warm. I love what you have done Nat. It really shows off your skills.

You don't have to change the tune if you don't want to, once the warranty is dead. But yes, unlike in the past all mfrs are having to patch the software to resolve issues. There have been one or two on recent Guzzis. On Euro5&6 - piggyback or outright replacement is going to be the only real way forrad. Euro4 is near impossible, I'm told.

You do know that Nat has enslaved 1000's of Dartmoor pixies to do all this stuff. Problem is finding a good one - they have to be released after a week or so, or they pine for the hills.

That or you have to sit in the van where they're caged and read lengthy passages from Lorna Doone. But this, even so is only a short term measure as Dartmoor pixies soon realise that the story is about Exmoor. Then they get all out of sorts and start cutting and filing the wrong bits off.

So Taya won't be walking after all. Being she has a penchant for making balls into purse's I think you came to the right decision! Kidding aside kick azz ride. Wish I had 10% of your talent!
