If you mean me, well I have had the bike for quite a while and I like to tinker with it and <perhaps>improve things here and there.
The bypass came about because I would not accept that occasionally the bike would just leave someone stranded.
The low fuel eliminator is because I do not care for the way Kawasaki warns (read: threatens) us and then withholds information (the range). I do not like machinery making decisions for me. Machinery (mechanical, electrical, electronic, whatever type) is a servant, not a master.
And a lot of work and study as to how these systems work followed by finding methods to modify them; it is not all that easy to alter fixed, sealed systems successfully.
Otherwise, it is just my basic nature to want to know how things work. Everything in fact. When I was a kid it seemed like an achievable goal but as I got older I caught on that the more I learned, the more there was to learn and so I simply won't live long enough to know how everything works. Of course we have to couple that with the fact that I am counting on smart people figuring out the complex stuff and passing it along to the rest of us and the most disappointing thing of all is that
they do not know how it all works either. But I still truly enjoy learning about things, systems and how they got to be as they are, and there is new stuff to study and tinker with everyday. And I take great pride that my species (homo sapiens sapiens, see sig. line) always has and continues to do simply amazing things.
See, Know, Remember. It works every single time :-)

you are amazing, how on earth do you know all the things you know, kipass by-pass, low fuel eliminator, etc., etc.??
