Hard n fast when it looks n feels safe, look out! Type of riding ( feel free to embelish): Mine also got better fuel economy after the reflash, but that is not reported by everybody. The reflash substantially changes the bike pitching into the suspension at both ends by the smoother fuelling and, dumping the defuel at throttle close, so the bike doesn't tend to wallow as much during braking and on corner entry and exit. My grilfriend's KTM 690 Duke was in the same boat ( engine reflash, not the suspension) but I didn't own it, so that doesn't count. engine control in this case) mods before suspension. Possibly THE only bike I have ever owned that I would ever recommend engine ( well. Marginal extra HP absolute, but way more where it counts ( low and mid) and fatter torque curve. The reflash makes the bike way more controllable, and reduces the fuell cutoff on closed throttle, as well as a heap of other things. Or a workshop, just incase they attempt to re-reflash it. You will need to tell a prospective buyer though. There is no way to tell from the outside. NOBODY will know the ecu is reflashed except the reflasher and you. My achilles tendon has gone feral at the moment. I love to experiment with motorcycle stuff.Ĭurrent photo.
