Does anybody know if the Race ECM works on the 08s? The Buell web site states that 04 and above. Just wondering if that includes the 08s.

Leo:

I would doubt that the current Race ECM would work since the 08' have the DDFI III and, it appears to be more than a little different. Just my guess based on the changes to the version.

I wonder if an 08 ecm would work on an 07 12R I've looked thru all the threads I found on a cpl searches but didn't find anything there were alot of posts about ecm's tho hehe learned alot just not what I wanna know so... do you think it's compatible I tend to think not only b/c of the crank timing thats new for the 08 it's the only reason i can think of...

You've correctly answered your own question. : )

In addition to the crank timing, the mapping is also different. I doubt the two even share the same connectors.

'08 ECM's will not work with earlier years. The connections are different due to more prons or whatever they're called.
That statement shows I'm not tech savvy but I did contact Mr. Lighton who IS tech savvy. He confirmed that the DDFI III is COMPLETELY different and that come June there should be a DDFI III compatable mod.

It might be different but from reading other threads the same old problems exist
