I may have been lost on a deserted island for a while...I just read, over on advrider, that ecmspy can be downloaded FOR FREE somewhere; that and the purchase of some 20$ cable will allow me to do my own tps resets, remap the fuel curve, etc. Is this true? If so, color me a fool.....

It's true, but I think most people sell the cable for closer to $40.00. There are a couple, jmhinkle and someone else just the other day said they had a new shipment, packdog, (scroll down the list a little)

I recently got my cable from jmhinkle. The cable is perfect, but I'm still not sure how to set the comm ports up. I have ECMspy downloaded and working. Any further advice on drivers/comm port configurations would be appreciated. Just trying to have TPS reset capability. Thanks.

+1 on the cables from Jmhinkle.

Uly1080, did you download the drivers from http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm ? In ECMspy set the Com port to #3, thats what worked on my laptop, yours might be different.

Is ECMSpy compatible with '08 models or it it just for earlier ECMs?

Good question. I know for sure 06 07 Uly and it says other years on the FAQ, but not 2008. So, I don't know.

I believe that ECMSpy does not work on the '08's because it is a different system altogether from the earlier ECM's. Thanks for the compliments on my cable's fella's. I may not charge much, but I do put a lot of time and quality into them. If you ever have problems or questions, just pm me. I may not be a Bueller anymore, but I do stand by my cables and offer any help I can.

Not yet. There is a ECMspy2 in development that will work on 2008 however it has not been released yet to the general public.

This ECMspy stuff is very interesting and deeply technical as the UK Buell forum is chocked full of threads that will keep you reading for days on end.
