Post by **Cav** » 01 Jun 2020, 15:28

I just brought my bike to you for a clean, I didn't give you permission to ride it

Doesn't matter. If i steal it, your insurance covers me...at least i think that is still the case.

I'm sure Kwacky will confirm or tell me I am talking bollocks.

He's got no insurance.

Even if he had it, the insurance will only cover claims made by others as a result of your actions. Any payments made will be recovered from you by the insurer.

The bike is now 100% fully ready. Cleaned, prepped and really to hit the rev limiter as I jump the Mountain on the sighting lap. Obviously

Getting it mapped ,stock run was 189 rwhp
The bmw ecu file takes 40 minutes to download so a few hours before I know what improvements over stock

Lol.. 189. What exhaust do you have? I'd expect 5 more peak horsepower and 10 more in the mid. Gonna be a weapon

Are they just looking at power maps or are they looking to make other changes? There's so much that can be done now the coding is direct onto the ECU and not just fuel maps changed on a piggy back controller (Power Commander)

they can change everything the standard map controls
When a bike comes in with fuelling or ignition problems they told me the first thing they ask is has it got a power commander fitted ,then take it off and do a direct remap
I chose them through recommendation and because I didnt want a piggy back system,they set up my suspension while I waited for the ECU code and it feels good now not as harsh
They remap lots of speed nipples and said they are nice engines and feel great after a remap

Was reading the PS mag article on the new S1000RR that Hickman's team were prepping for this years TT. The old bike is faster than the new bike.

Post by **Kwacky** » 05 Jun 2020, 11:20

Perkles will tell you a few horror stories about the new one.

I haven't heard about that.

He was saying in one interview that the new S1000RR road bike is very close to his old race bike in terms of time (closed circuit)

A whole Gen 4 section on the BMW forums and they have all had multiple problems with terrible support from BMW ,wheels cracked, suspension leaking,oil coolers leaking ,calipers leaking ,paint peeling off frames the list goes on

Post by **Cav** » 05 Jun 2020, 12:22

I know someone with the MSport Edition and his has been in BMW more than it's been out. I reckon they've changed their Factor of Safety in a bid to save weight and cost.

We know they moved away from Brembo calipers for that reason.

He has the cracked carbon wheel. He didn't have the problem that BMW reported though.

Definitely remap is the way to go these days.

Is the bike limited in first 3 gears? I've heard of people having this coded out. I think there is alot they can change or modify.

I sent them an email enquiry for a remap and wanted to see a dyno of a previous speed triple to see what to expect. I've asked twice now but not heard anything back. If you don't mind give them a nudge for me please buddy if your in there

When did you send the email? Perkles said that they're snowed under with work.

yes they are coding all the throttle restrictions out ,they told me the R1 has the worst throttle response of any bike
A remap is 380 quid he will tell you every bike is slightly different and he will only remap your bike with a new map written against your factory base map ,I doubt he will share customers bikes maps
Just do a search on youtube for dave woods racing speed nipple remap or ask on the Triumph forums
