Hi,

I have this little guide, transferred in a slightly altered form, in our online manual.
Thank you for this step by step guide.

BR, Tom

Awesome! Glad you approve!

You're welcome to everyone who has thanked me. Glad the little bit of work I put into this has gone a long way to help others.

Should we make this a sticky?

Hi Ebster, Don't now about this thread being a sticky. But you certainly helped me when I used Tune ecu for the first time a few weeks ago. I printed your post post and used it as a guide when I loaded Tune ecu and downloaded several different maps to experiment with. No problems whatsoever this was the first time I have tried anything like this.
Thanks Paul

Good stuff, glad I was able to help Paul.

I just feel it makese sense to have a fairly straight forward user guide in the EFI tuning sticky section, but maybe others would disagree.

Hey Ebster,
For what it's worth, on my 2000 RS, I don't have to click anything for the map to take and the 12 minute idle thing would just waste gas as the old style F.I. that I have doesn't have this feature. I just wanted to add this to save those with older bikes some gas money.

I simply remove the headlight fuses on my bike, 1 and 9 and then plug in and upload the new map in. Simple fast process. Takes longer to R&R the fuses than to change the tune.

I can upload a tune, disconnect my laptop and then head out after repalcing the fuses and seat and tell right away that it has taken effect.

Still, I am glad you have taken the time to write it up. Thank you!

Hi,

The data amount of Sagem-files is significantly lower than the data amount of Keihin-files. A Keihin-file contains about four times the amount of data. For this reason, it takes significantly longer, a Keihin-file to load on the ECU .

BR, Tom

Only Fuse 9 should be necessary on your model - although Fuse 1 feeds the relays, those relays will be inactive anyway with the Fuse 9 removed, isolating the power from the coils as well as the direct power to the non-relay headlight.
So save yourself a further 2 secs!
