I have been doing a lot of research over the last couple of days. I do not truly know anything about tuning motorcycles, so I went looking for a self-adjusting unit. The Remus Powerizer appears to be my best bet. What do you guys think? Thank you in advance.

Also, I have a 2008 XB9SX. I am looking at purchasing a Remus Powerizer off of a 2008 XB12R. Will it work with my XB9? Thanks!

Install in circular file. Just an opinion.

Alright, thanks for the advice. I am new to the forum; it is awesome! I just wish I knew more than I currently do, so I could contribute information in addition to leaching information.

Leach away - we all have, and hope to keep paying it forward.

It is all self-adjusting.

I'd go with a Remus. Austrians don't mess around with anything. Plus, theres no buttons for you to accidentally mess anything up. I'm actually thinking of buying a Remus exhaust, flat black to match the bike which is blacker than the ace of spades. Termignonis are too flashy. But I've bought a used Remus Powerizer for 80 quid. Thats like 110 USD or somewhere around there.

Just be warned, once installed, it may cause grin muscle cramps. : D

Will a Powerizer from a 2008 XB12R work with a 2008 XB9?

As far as I know I don't think it will, considering the displacement differences thus different fuel/air ratios. Could be wrong, I'm no motorbike Tech.

Its my understanding that any piggy back system won't work on these bikes. The ECM will eventually trump the piggy back since these ECM's are self adjusting/self learning. I was going to buy a Dayton Twin Tuner last year, and was told all of this. Search Daytona Twin Tuner and Remus Powerizer, there's info on these already. I even spoke with Mike, the Xopti guy (dude really knows his shit when it comes to this stuff) and he confirmed all of this. Don't waste your money.

So my ecm must've been remapped by the guy who had it before me. Because it sure as hell doesn't ride like the xb12r I've test rode, not in the least.

According to the Trojan Horse website, the Powerizer will work with 2008 models.

Dobeck TFI will sort of work, but it throws a lot of error codes in the ECM because it is constantly trying to fool the ECM with temperature and O2 data that does not fit. The TFI only connects to the injectors, O2, temp and ground to make it's changes.

Piggybacks are a waste of time and money with the ability to actually tune the stock ECM directly. These bikes basically come stock with a full featured tuneable standalone. It would be better to spend the money on DirectLink.
