The only way to do it would be to have two ECMs installed on the bike and only one powered at a time. You could have a switch that powered between the two and have all the same inputs in the two. All you would have to do is shut off the motor and switch between them and fire back up.

Great!
First I was going for a FlexFuel conversion but i've been told that they're not so efficient adjusters afterall..

Planning to run max. 0.7 bar (10.15 PSI).
I'm currently building a preparation for water/methanol injection if I'm going for a higher boost. Going to put one injector on the plenum, which will inject straight to the throttle body. And second injector to the chargers intake side to cool down charger.
Eatons are getting pretty unefficient when going over 0.7 bar. Sucking lots of power and making lots of heat...:
Power required to drive supercharger
Delta temperature
Much better option would be Sprintexn, when going for higher boost (which BTW new Bimota also has: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ01Xq74Ti4&feature=youtu.be&t=5m pretty sweet sounds when revving HARD!)..:

I considered microsquirt as an option when starting this project, but will go with Buell's ECM with a 3 bar MAP-sensor and stock timings.

Some injector calculations:

Really...
How much weight do I need to drop that it will be the same as adding 70hp?!
And I think that water injection system will not weight more than a few pounds, so I'l take a **** before I get on the road and it'l take care of that...

If Buell's stock power to weight ratio is 0.463 (83whp / 179kg)
With 140whp and 200kgs power to weight ratio would be 0.7
With 150whp and 200kgs power to weight ratio would be 0.75... and so on
It would have to weight over 300kg to get power to weight ratio to the same with 140whp
With 140whp and 200kgs power to weight ratio would be 0.7
With 150whp and 200kgs power to weight ratio would be 0.75... and so on

Leave the clutch assembly together as in don't remove the clutch spring. Put the bike in gear and use an impact on the clutch nut. It has red loctite on it and should be torqued down to 80 ft-lbs, to give you an idea of the effort required to remove it. Yes, it has left hand threads.
Did you get my clutch yet?

Okay. I tried to remove it with air impact gun by holding secondary front sprocket with hand... didn't work so well. Going to try it with tuned air gun and locking it by gear, have to assemble clutch back though...
I haven't receive your clutch, but I think it's because we just move. I've ordered new pistons, primary chain and some other parts that I cant even remember anymore....
Only need to buy new gaskets, wideband O2 sensor/s, SC oil and some other things that cant remember. I think I have alzheimers, or what was it with remembering problems.... ahhh cant remember...
BTW. our car just broke... May be some minor engine failure. Could be just a lifter/s, or rod/s, or crank bearing/s.... GREEEEAT!!! Any thoughts for a knocking/tapping/rattling sound when engine is WARM? No weird sounds when cold or under load, witch is quite odd...
Ordered 2x Innovate MTX-L 3845 widebands, Screaming Eagle Lefty crank bearing and apparently only one Wiseco piston...
Going to take the engine to the HD-workshop on next week. They are going to work with the heads, probably hone the cylinders and assemble engine back together.
