I would have paid $50 to get an ECU sent to me to use so I didn't have to park my bike for what seemed like a long time.
I noticed a pretty good difference between Guhl and stock. When I wacked the throttle with Guhl at 2500 rpm, it was VERY apparent that you needed to be pointing where you wanted to go before you did that.
Steve's flash feels smoother and has the low end, but I have only ridden it once and had to get somewhere. I am looking forward to running against my buddy's Multistrada, because we ran from 'rolling in 1st gear at idle' to redline in 3 gears and we were dead nuts even. We did it at least 3x and the results were identical. I was surprised. I thought he would blow me into the weeds. We are both in our late 50's and have Ben riding for 30+ years, raced dirt bikes, done track days etc so while we're not Marquez and Rossi, we know how to twist a throttle. I think we are gonna ride tomorrow afternoon, so I should be able to go to ECO mode and run as stock gaitly even, then switch to normal mode and beat him handily. Testing is fun!
Can't be done. your ECU has a unique identifier to mate with your Kipass unit. It's easy to have a couple eCU's run on the bike if you can key them with a kds unit. Steve

Who's Ben?Gotta love autocorrects on today's computers. Normally they correct things wrong.
I was told to write down some number on my ECU before shipping. I think I did this? It already had a number written on it in marker, I assume by Guhl.
Why is it necessary to store this number? And what is the number and what is the purpose of it? And what's the downsides if that number is not recorded? Mine runs fine so I am lucky.
He's the autocorrect asshole on my phone. I saw that and tried to go back and edit it but the edit interface was horrifying and I just hoped everybofy here was smart enough to figure it out.
Not quite the same but yes. Before I got the Guhl flash, I hardly noticed much difference between the 2. After the Guhl flash there is a very noticeable difference.

I call it eco mode because it says eco mode on the dash when I press the button. Feel free to call it My Little Pony if you want.
I think your friend will smoke you if you are in ECO mode, you loose a lot of top end power at WOT. The first time I went WOT in first I was rather un-impressed, then I realized I was in ECO mode. I then switched ECO off and tried another first gear WOT ... yaaa whoooo ... traction light flashed on and kept the front end down but man was there a difference.
Actually, it says "Eco" on the dash, not "eco mode". Indeed, call it whatever you like, although the manual calls it "Fuel Economy Assist Mode". Luckily they didn't call the gas tank the "Go Juice Container" or the antilock brake system the "OMG Super Brake Pulsation System".
To me, when someone says, "I don't mean to be (x)", that means some serious (x) is coming. Not only was I not disappointed, I was treated to distinguishing between "eco" and "eco mode". That's some black belt ninja Yoda level (x) right there. Truly, we are in the presence of greatness. Thanks.
Thanks!Sorry, but the reply was to maxtog, as he is forum management, or perhaps you knew that, and y'all were having a fun battle that others like myself were unaware.
No worries.
