Some know I've had a couple threads of my bike having low rpm/low throttle stumbling/hesitation issues, and most recently idling issues. I've tried all the following (each making it slightly better, but not enough): New plugs(stock heat range), new plugs again(iridium and one heat range cooler, this made a big difference), new oil, new fuel, new wires, checked static timing, used ecmpspy to check all diagnostics, tps reset (many times), and breather reroute.
This morning I flashed the race maps to my bike using ecmspy and went on a 1.5 hr ride. It is simply a whole new bike. No longer runs lean, which makes it run much cooler (it used to get so hot the frame/fuel tank was almost too hot to touch near the rear exhaust pipe). It starts better, idles better (and I didn't even do a TPS reset), it has significantly more low end power, some more high end power, but the best part is it is smooth power transition throughout the whole rpm range. This seems to have solved my running hot issue and stumbling/hesitation issue, along with the other mods/maintenance, and the bike runs waaay better and stronger. It simply sounds better at idle and at cruise if that even sounds reasonable, but it does. The only other mod I have is an UNI air filter. Stock exhaust for now.
Using ecmspy was extremely easy too, once someone on the forum told me how to do it it literally took less than 30 minutes to do, and that include booting up the laptop and shutting it down.
I am convinced that any buell with factory tuning needs to be tuned, even if it's just a canned "race" tune like I just put on mine, it's simply a different bike.
Thanks guys!
