Hi all, Apologies in advance if this is a bit of a stupid question... I bought a Termi exhaust for my 1299 from a fellow forum member, and the exhaust was 'officially' (according to instructions etc) for the 1199. It came with the upmap and all so I just wondered if the upmap would work the same for the 1299 or if this wouldn't be advisable due to the engine differences? I am looking to get a custom remap done in the near future anyway but wondered if it were worth loading the termi upmap in the meantime when I fit the exhaust or not? Thanks!
I’d leave it and let the lambda’s do their thing for now. It would worry me running a lean map and holing a piston I might be talking shite so like biot says, seek a qualified steer on it
From what I can see online, the key should unlock a map that already exists on the ECU so I guess if it is compatible, it should just change to a map that is already there? Hmm...
The 1299 is horrific as standard I have termi,s on mine and it was like trying to ride a crocodile while sticking your finger up its ass !!! jerking and surging at low speeds a remap from a good guy here in Ireland transformed the Bike ! he said it was about as bad as he,d seen, his exact words were its was like Ducati just used some left over 1199 ecu,s the fueling was that bad !
the process for uploading the map is different 1199 and 1299. the 1199 you can do yourself with the Up map, but the 1299 you will need to get the dealer to do it via the laptop. i used the map with my Akrapovic system for the 1299 and it was still very snatchy, but fitted a Rapid bike Evo and the low down improvements were immediate
Thanks all Going to leave it standard and just get a custom one as soon as possible. Cheers for replies!
I can thoroughly recommend Mark Brewin and Andy at BSD Performance. They have just re-mapped my 1199 after removing and switching off all the emissions rubbish that makes the bikes run rubbish at small throttle opening. It is sooo much better now. The two lambda sensors have been removed, the AIR bleed blanked off and the exhaust flapper valve switched off to stay open. Once the bike has a steady air flow in and out, it can be re-mapped separately for each cylinder and in each rider mode. Not cheap but worth every penny. Talking to them both for an hour was an enlightenment in motorcycle fuel mapping
