Hi,

After reading various posts about the ECMSpy software I've decided that I don't have the experience, knowledge, confidence or a PC to do it! (I own a Mac).

So I'd like to get someone else to do it for me.

It's something I would like to have done as I've read it will stop the popping and banging that I get (assuming the exhaust is causing that) but mostly help for a smother ride when riding slow, in traffic for example it's hard not to look like I have kangaroo juice in it.

I have been told by a couple of people Pash is the man to do it but according to Goggle maps he's 172 miles away so I was wondering is there anyone in Essex-ish who can too?

A friend of mine has a friend at a Harley shop in Surrey (I think) and he said he would be able to do it but I'm a bit reluctant to let anyone do it unless they know exactly what they are doing and have done Buells before as I can live with it happily as it is rather than it get worse or feck it up!

Any help suggestions welcome...

Cheers
Pete

Have you done a TPS reset?

Thanks for the replys guys.

Yeah I did see it (thanks for the link also), but it's stuff like this that's the reason I want someone who know's what they're doing to do it...

"Warning - ECMSpy is a powerful tool. In inexperienced hands, it can result in your ECM being rendered useless."

I'm not great when it comes to this kind of thing and I'd be gutted if I fudged it up! :oooops:



This one I'd have a go at! ;)

08 and later Buells
The 08 and later have a completely different procedure and doesn’t need ECMSpy.

Turn the ignition on, engine kill switch to run, twist the throttle 3 times - keep the throttle fully open for one second and fully closed for one second.

The TPS reset really is a very simple procedure , when you've done it or watched it being done you'll wonder why you even worried about it.

I'm sure you're right I just still wouldn't trust myself to do it the first time....
