2/21/2024 0 Comments Motorcycle ecu flash dimitrie![]() ![]() The second, more modern, electronic throttle system is the fully-ETV (electronic throttle valve) style. These systems have been in place for nearly two decades on some models, such as GSXR600/750s, pre-2017 GSXR1000s, ZX6Rs, pre-2016 ZX10Rs, and many more. These older STP systems generally don't cause the same "twitchy" or "jerky" sensations that the newer electronic throttle systems are notorious for, but they almost always leave a LOT of performance on the table when stock ECU mapping is still in place. In fact, on some models, the plates may NEVER fully open in some gears with stock mapping. This means that (for example) even when your wrist is giving the bike a WOT input, the STPs may not be anywhere near fully open. With this type of throttle control system, there are two throttle plates on top of each other in each throttle body one is still 100% mechanically controlled by throttle cables and your wrist while the other is 100% controlled by the ECU. The first (and arguably more antiquated) is an STP (secondary throttle plate) system. There's two different types of electronic throttle control systems that almost all manufacturers use to control throttle plate opening on modern fuel injected motorcycles. This is why, on electronic throttle motorcycles, we spend MORE TIME dialing in and perfecting the ECU's throttle mapping than we do on almost ALL OTHER MAPS (fuel, ignition timing, etc) added together! At best, you have to roll back off the throttle to correct your line, and at worst you could experience a crash. ![]() That said, if the throttle opens too soon, you run the risk of losing rear tire grip at higher lean angles, or you could cause the bike to "stand up" and run wide when exiting the corner. When exiting a corner on the track, the goal is to get to WOT (wide open throttle) as fast as possible, for as long as possible before you hit the braking zone of the next corner. Just about everyone has heard the old saying "slow is smooth, smooth is fast" at one point or another, and when it comes to throttle control on a motorcycle that phrase couldn't be more accurate! Being able to precisely control your throttle opening when exiting a corner is vitally important, both in terms of rider safety AND when looking to shorten lap times at the track. Good luck enjoy your bike and I'm sure that Hindle is music to your ears.Let's talk about throttle control, and how we can make yours smoother. If money was no object, I'd get a RapidBike but at $700-$1,000 the gains are marginal for a vintage bike. ![]() I also know that a PowerCommander 3 with a knowledgeable tuner for my '99 VFR is a good thing since we can't flash our ECU. I do know that a PowerCommander for a Super T is useless since you can accomplish more with the ability to flash the ECU. Regarding the usefulness of PowerCommander for your bike, I don't know. Of course taking the bike to a tuner that can flash your ecu specifically for your bike is best. For $269.99 I'd do it just not to lean the bike out. They have a map for your bike with a Hindle, that's a good thing. The flash removed both those issues which transformed the bike. The stock Super T has gear based and speed dependent restrictions (HP is restricted by gear/speed) and the ulta annoying "Injector Decel Cut" where if you decelerate, the fuel is cut. I used 2wheeldyno for a mail in flash on a '12 Super Tenere with stock exhaust and can reccommend them. I mostly just want the bike to run not super leaned out since I plan on keeping it for a bit. If I get a Hindle exhaust, are the mail in flashes offered by MooreMafia/2wheeldynoworks legit or are they just kind of a meme? Has anyone had a good experience with those companies or should I look elsewhere? I'd rather avoid spending all the money for a power commander and dyno tune. For my car, I have a FlashPro and a proper dyno tune but that was a lot of money that I don't really want to spend on the bike. Ive also gathered that if going that route, it's heavily advised to get a tune. Since I'm not really looking for more power, I first looked for slip-ons but it seems like due to the setup of my factory exhaust the only option is a full system. Looking to put an exhaust on it since I hate how quiet and shitty sounding the factory pipes are. For reference, bought a 2020 Ninja 650 in April and have put 6k miles on it since then.
