I just wanted to pass on that Rob S. took his bike back to Guhl motors today and Don Guhl applied the fuel trims I developed on my Autotune system into the ECU and he then put it back on the dyno. Its a bit hard to compare it to the previous dyno run since the atmospheric conditions were a lot different, but it appears that it made a little more HP and torque in the lower RPM ranges, and the A/F readings looked good. This will probably be the last adjustment made to the reflash for a while as it appears to be pretty well dialed in now, and I can tell you from my own bike that it is a great improvement over stock and the rideability is excellent. I'm satisfied with it enough that I don't think I will make any more changes to it, and I don't feel like I want or need any more power out of the bike, as I can already spin the rear tire on corner exits easily.
The really good news is that the traction control and economy mode are unaffected, and from what testing I have done, it appears I have picked up about 2-3 MPG even in the normal mode. So all in all, I'm real happy with the way the bike rides and responds. Now that the secondary butterflies open up sooner, they no longer restrict torque and throttle response on the lower end, and now the bike rides like a 1400cc motorcycle should.
A BIG THANKS goes out to both Guhl Motors and Rob S. for letting them test his bike on the dyno and reflash the ECU.
If you're interested in having your ECU reflashed the cost is $375. Guhl Motors web site is here: http://www.guhlmotors.com/
