I was talking to my dealer today about installing a TFI Box or PCIII on my XB12 to remapp the A/F ratio after just installing some performace mods. They told me the new Race ECM`s from Buell are now fully programmable and they have the software from Buell to make adjustments to peform load tests on their dyno. Has anyone else heard of this? They said Buell just released this a couple of weeks ago. | ||

Haven't heard that, but you can bet the farm I'll be finding out tomorrow! Dave | ||

Not as big of news as the larger axles  | ||
| M1combat |
Farm has been bet Dave... Don't fail me now  . John... Are you sure he wasn't talking about the "RACE ECM" (that racers get) as opposed to the race ecm? | ||
| M1combat |
Larger Axles??? I'll bite... How large Dyna? | ||
| Daves |
I was just talking to a factory guy today about ECMs and he didn't mention anything. He would know how interested I would be in this info. Dave | ||
| M1combat |
Maybe they just decided to sell the real race ecm to us? | ||
| R1DynaSquid |
Dont recall how big..or if the size was even mentioned. A certain certain someone who works at a certain certain dealership somewhere in the Appleton area has the paper with the details on the big axle news | ||
| Fullpower |
how big can you make an axle and still fit it inside a wheel bearing? | ||
| Wyckedflesh |
I have seen some damn big wheelbearings FP...course I worked at a Napa whose major customers where the freightlines... | ||
| R1DynaSquid |
Billy lanes hub less bike is really just a bike with a huge hollow axle, at least thats how he described it. | ||
| M1combat |
Obviously... I'm wondering how much more unsprung weight could be shaved by doing that. If any. | ||

Dave, check your PMs. | ||
| Wyckedflesh |
Has there been a problem with axles breaking? Or is it the chance to use better wheelbearings that would cause the switch? | ||
| Wyckedflesh |
reads the anony post above and wonders if he needs to put money aside for a new ECM... | ||

reads the anony post above and wonders if he needs to put money aside for a new ECM... Or maybe he's gonna get scolded for the axle news??  | ||

eeeps | ||

Well, I should've known you wouldn't keep it under your hat Dyna. I also had the new 05 pricing sitting there! Dave | ||
| Bads1 |
Well lets hear some pricing then???? | ||
| Daves |
Right after the dealer meeting. Dave | ||
| Bads1 |
Hey Dave you brought it up. | ||
| Misato |
buell or h-d the big sportster axle? yippe. | ||
| R1DynaSquid |
Yea, that axle news was just too big to hold in any longer  Dana..you are gonna be shocked at the new pricing. | ||
| Bads1 |
?????????????????? | ||

Round and round and round she goes... | ||

Well I ain't heard of anyone breaking axles yet, but it looks like the Motec M4 could replace the XB race ecm holus bolus and do a you-beaut job of it. | ||

(this could get messy and ugly real fast) | ||

They just said the Race ECM was programmable through software now. I just wanted to see if anyone else has heard of this or are they just BSing me. M1 I think the Race ECM that is available to the Race Teams has external adjustments. | ||
| Daves |
BSing you Johncr250. The "Race team ECM" is programmed with a laptop and software. The race ecms we get will still not be programmable by the dealer or owner. There are other details but not really important to the end user so I won't go into that. Dave | ||

so if we get to hear the axle/pricing news (and more??) after the dealer mtng....when is the dealer mtng? |
