Hi all,
Â
Not been on here in a while, mainly as I spent a year in Greece and owned a Dorsoduro 750 for most of that time. Good, unabused TDMs are few and far between there, so I went for an Italian job and had much fun. Not in Athens city, which is slippery AF and has insane driver behaviour plus congestion, but on the open roads. I mean, the Peloponnese is brilliant for riding. But I digress.
Â
My 9er was put in storage, and I found a cheap ECU in Norway before emigrating. I delivered it in person so had a good chat with Spiros (Samios) about it. I didn't want the fuel cut as I enjoyed the engine braking and hate popping in the cans, but he convinced me to go for it for all the other, better, reasons. Anyway, I've had a good read-through of the related threads here and am all excited to get riding with it.
Â
Samios said to block off the breather pipe to pretty much eliminate popping. What's the experience of others about this?
Â
Has anyone got the final word on torque limitations also in 1st?
Â
Lastly, my replacement ECU is a -00 suffix one, mentioned on the JBX site as a 'faulty', recall type with poor low-rpm fuelling. I assume this doesn't matter as long as it's been remapped, right?
Â
As soon as I have more than a few evening hours of babysittage to hand, I'll get it fitted along with a K&N air filter. Couldn't find the recommended DNA one, new or used, anywhere...
