Did you update your ECU? Or just the cover?

I already have the Race ECM, so I just updated the box.

To revive this...

My dealer just got back to me on whether or not they could reflash. They can, after talking to the Buell Tech line. but..........

they want $149.95 for the reflash. They are characterizing it as a "tuning." WOW-WEE.... That's a huge chunk of change for $maybe 10 minutes of work. I think I'll be contacting DaveS when I park the bike.

Holy shit!
What do they think, it is like a HD reflash?
The flash is FREE!
It's only a little bit of time to do it.

ok just looking for a long term update. What does everyone think now. I have my air box cover but have not put it on yet. What are the thoughts after a longer time in use??

Buellish have you done this yet???

Gtmg,

My mileage seems to have gone back to the original MPG. The power is still strong.

It's a little hard to tell in that when it's cold, it seems to run fine but the rubber isolators transmit more vibrations.

I can't wait to run it in the spring and summer. I definitely wouldn't go back.

Mine is working great! Now, it has not been hot yet, but I don't have any pinging yet.

Fingers crossed.

I've had the '07 box on for a couple of months now, including '07 ECM flash.

Other than making more noise, I can't say my butt dyno can detect any meaningful improvement. Either in drive-ability or outright performance.

Maybe someone will do a 'before' and 'after' dyno pull to settle the discussion.

Mine has less hesitation. No reflash. Runs very well, before and after Spec Ops pipe.

Too cold/icy to ride Odysseus though. Odie is too nice to risk. Riding the Nuclear Thunderpig instead from time to time (XR650R plated and farkled).

Dillon Brother's HD/Buell reflashed mine for 40 dollars.

I have re-flashed one it ran fine. The reason for the re-flash would be to incorporate the changes in the fuel tables for the new air box and also a few minor changes in the timing tables to reduce pinging. We charged .5 hour, with the download being free to us from H-D. That is what it took from the time I started until I was finished and had verified that the bike was OK. Remember that you must use a 07 VIN to get the 07 calibration and when you put the bike back on the Digital Tech using the original non 07 VIN it shows a different calibration, but did not reject anything...
