I search this but i couldn't find anything.I no that when you get a pipe you have to 1.tune it or 2. buy the race ECM.Well i went on a ride the other day and we stopped at a HD dealer in Sarasota FL.There was a "SALLS MEN" there that told me there isn't anything they can tune in the stock ECM.Now the HD dealer where i live told me for 250 they will dyno and tune my bike.I think he said 3 hours of tuning and up 10 pulls.so i guess my question is can you tune the stock ECM and get good numbers down to the wheel or is the race ECM better.I would rather go with the tune though. Thank you....
 
ok...

1) don't believe salesmen! most don't know what they are talking about.
and from what i've ready here, especially most harley salesmen when talking about buell :p

2) both the stock or race ecm can be reprogrammed no problem.

3) the results you get when remapping/reprogramming your ecm are better than a race ecm.
why? cause it's made on your setup, whilst a race ecm is made for the buell official race kit (k&n airfilter & buell race exhaust)

4) 250 sounds like a decent price [up]

you have a setup in mind?


my bike last weekend:

Well right now i am just gettin a jardine exhaust.I thought about the k&n but i think i am goin to hold off on it right now.But thank you for your time. [up][up]
 
Looks good Lefox. So how many ponies did it put to the wheel?? Do you have a 12 or a 9? Did they tune it for you or just dyno it? I have the race exhaust, ecm and K&N so I am leaving mine alone.
 
Hell yeah man that would easily make me smile my ass off. Those are great numbers. My 9 with the Buell Race Kit I would think put somewhere around 80hp to the wheel but I won't know until bike week in Laconia in June. I will dyno the bike then. They have Dyno trailers and it costs like $30-$50 to dyno it.
 
I justed checked and the pipe will be here tomorrow and i will put it on that night and Thursday i hit the dyno maybe Friday.either way we will know by Saturday what the bike will make.Now one thing that makes me think that i might make more power then lefox is my bike is a 08 with a higher rev limit and different fuel and exhaust then the 07's and older.So we will see....

you might have better numbers compared to mine for low-end power, but above 3000rpm i would doubt it :p

but we will see...and the important things is that you are happy with the result ;)

also, when they dyno your bike, make sure they do not use any correction!
 
ok will do.I wasn't trying to say mine is better then yours i think you made a real good number.I was just saying that i hope to make the same if not better.I will be more then happy to make what you did.:D
 
hehe...i know :D

but if you do better than me above 3000rpm with the jardine, something is wrong with my setup ;)

i sold the jardine & race ecm and bought micron and got it coated and mapped the ecm

part of my winter-mods :D
 
What the hell it that in the back round.That bike looks fast...By the way i wanted that exhaust but i don't have that kinda money right now.
 
There is no doubt the Micron exhaust is badass but the price for it is really high but what do you expect for a full system. That front header pipe kind of looks creased at the 2nd curve but it is probably just the picture with the shadow.

no it is...1st bend too, but that's has it's reasons...takes getting used too, but looks great.
and for a full system, it's not that expensive.
 
For a aftermarket header you would think those bends would be better than the factory bends. That looks like it won't flow as good as the factory header. Is it larger in diameter than the factory one? I have never seen one in person.

like i said, it takes getting used too & has its purpose.
the headers are larger in diamter and flow better. look at is as kind of a venturi system ;)

Looks to me like someone isn't feathering the clutch enough. Hell put wheelie bars on that bike so you can really launch it. Also that thing is lowered a ton. How did you guys lower the back?? Or is that just the compression from the launch?
