OBD2 adapter.....good ones on ebay....tried 2 of the £5 ones....no good.....then I found a tuning company on ebay have them for £20 says fine with tune Ecu.....works great with TuneEcu. Used it several times on my T100 2020.....great....but love to know how to alter the map to give 5% more fuel over the whole RPM range.....but at the moment that beyond me.....I wish there was a book I could buy to learn from. Not delved into mapping though. I have down loaded the correct MAP.....but thats as far as I got. What I do know is a weak F/A is not good for the engine.....ie valves and piston heads.....they get bloody hot. Interesting video Chris.....love to have a chat with you. Can I ask you Chris.....did you alter your own map in the end. Nick from Cheshire UK.
Afternoon Nick - thanks for a nice, constructive comment. No, I have not done any tuning. I asked at Bridge Motorcycles and they said it would stuff the guarantee - and I have a four year guarantee 'cos of all the trouble I had. (It runs to 2026.) That said, I'd love to tune/map the ECU as the stock set-up is dreadful: very, very hot, 'chuggy' at low revs and pops 'n farts on over-run all the time. I can't remember if I said so in the video but Hilltop Motorcycles in Leicester offer a tune service which is expensive (£300ish) but they're confident that it wouldn't show on a dealer service; so no warranty issue. But I'm way too scared to try it! Cheers Nick, Chris
Thank you Sky. Yes, I have been told that. Interstingly, one gent on the RAT forums says that changing the air-fuel ratio table (i.e. flash the ECU) would be 'useless' because the ECU ignores the table. I presumed reducing the air (from, say, 14 to 13) would richen the mixture? But what do I know? (On my Sportster, get the ECM re-programed made the world of difference - including to running temperature.) Cheers, Chris
Hey I was looking at a new speedmaster and I noticed at higher RPM maybe 4-5000 the engine vibrates much more than my speed twin 900 feels is that the case with yours? Mind you I’m not sure on the exact RPM but overall on acceleration it just vibrates a lot. Also I was not able to test it in a proper highway going more than 70mph does it ride smoothly meaning without much vibration or would highway riding not be a good idea for longer rides?

If your engine is running lean it will also cause the engine to run hotter.
Nice video as usual Chris!

@@chrisoftheot6272 Have you considered the power commander Chris.
Think it only works on the lower RPMs....are you euro 4 or 5.
