Guhl's ECU Flash For The Kawasaki Concours 1400 / GTR 1400...Group Buy?

[SCHRECK]

Put me up on this list. I'm interested in a great price.

[VirginiaJim]

I would do it if there's a 25% discount.

I tend to doubt we'll get that much if any...but we'll see.

[Necron99]

add me to the interested list.  Frankly the only reason I haven't done it is that I daily commute and almost never have down time.  But I have a couple trips to Peru and Ecuador potentially coming up and that's a great time to have the ECU out of the bike.

Its a damn shame there is no equivalent product for Motorcycles like the Diablosport Trinity. You get full control of mapping
and anything the ecu uses. The device plugs into the OBD2 port under your dashboard. You save your factory map on the unit
and flash your ecu to the specs you want... it retails for $600 and best price I have seen is 15% off.
I have it on my 2012 Dodge Charger and  as long as I run 93 Octane with my mods( Cold Air intake and Corsa Extreme Cat back exhaust and BBS 85 MM Throttle body) I get major increases in power low down and I over-rode redline limiter and top speed limiter
Hemis were always peaky for TQ and HP and factory setting is 5250 redline now It is up to 6000 rpm.
I guess there are lots more cars out there than bikes so it is cost effective to unlock maps and sell the unit to car owners..

Well there is ECU Editor but it only works on Suzukis. I'm waiting on EFI Live to expand the vehicles they support but I think I'll be a long time waiting.

  I don't have a C14 anymore but if I could throw my zx14 ECU into the mix than you can count me in also.

- have the scouts come back ?

I talked to Don today and there will be no group buy, unfortunately.  I think it would have happened if we could have sent 20+ ECUs in at one time (not bloody likely).  The logistics of sending them in piecemeal did us in, methinks.  However, with that being said, I did have a very nice conversation with him.  He seems a good guy and I think we should still support him if you want your ECU reflashed.  I intend to send him mine within the next few months.

Virginia Jim, thanks for your efforts- although I am a little disappointed with the witch doctor Guhl. I will be on the fence for a while longer..

You have to remember that he's a small businessman.  The C14 is a very small market for him compared to what he does normally...(sportier crowd).  The numbers for us just aren't there, unfortunately.

[VirginiaJim]

my bad

No you weren't.  As farkling goes with this bike, that amount of money is about mid-range or so.  It's not a bad price at all as is.

[stewart]

I agree, respect the decision. I'm already a customer so don't have any skin in the game here. But I'm happy with the results/value for dollars I spent.

Rate quality, customer serivce and long term success over anything else.

What did he quote you as the current pricing to get it done?

[VirginiaJim]

$375 and that includes ground shipping back so you must pay for the shipping there as well.  On the plus side it can be a quick turn around.  They flash it as soon as they get it.  If you need it quickly then they can ship overnight (that would cost more obviously).

Why don't you start another thread with those who will do it for a set price let's say $300. you need a set price,  IF 20 people sign up! or if over 30 sign up! or 40??
I'm sure ZG,  he's a swinger.... and well known... , would go to the OTHER forum  and post the same deal, hey It's winter time and that should be the BEST time for everyone including Guhl ( between snow removal)

[gPink]

Sounds like a exercise in futility. The man has set a price for his work. He's been asked about a group discount and declined.

Signing up isn't the issue here.  It's getting everyone to send in their ECUs at the same time and you would have to guarantee to Don that all of the members who did sign up would indeed do that.  You're more than welcome to try, though.  As much as I want to do this and will, I couldn't even guarantee me to be able to do that depending on circumstances.

You would have to guarantee Don that the members would (making up something here) send in the units within a two week window (again making this up and I could work with that period) and if the numbers weren't met then the current price would go into effect. 

Based on my conversation with Don, I really don't think he'd go that low but you never know.  Since you are interested in this enough to make suggestions, I'm anointing you to work something out with Don (that will teach you).  717-618-4212  He might do something if we put the caveat that if the numbers aren't met within the specified time period then normal pricing applies.  Also, if someone wants it quicker than normal turnaround the extra money is on the member who needs it quickly.

Start a new thread and I'll sticky it for you.  My work is getting pretty intense for the next couple of weeks so you are that man...   The members who sign up will have to be the ones that will do it regardless of a discount so that we can guarantee the numbers.

Mention my name that we talked about this....

[Conrad]

So Jim, did you ask Don about the different reflash options that are available to us?

[VirginiaJim]

Yes, I did.
