Just got back from a nice 150 miler or so.This flash is definitely the way to go with this bike...and the pipe.I'm very happy with the flash.THANK YOU DON....you've done an excellent job with this.Feels much stronger all the way around.Gonna have to get used to her all over again.She is I would say...in the 'be careful' category fully.I'll try...but you guys know how this bike performs...she just screams "open me up"....even moreso now.Fuel mileage has gone up some as well.
Want to get her out on some of my couple mile straights here...see what she'll do.From how she feels now...I think 200 will be very doable.I'll get a vid up when I go for it...probably tomorrowShe runs smooth and the somewhat vibey areas I was experiencing are smoothed out nicely.Great bike...I love this bird.I may never go back to my 14...seriously.

Good luck. Where you mount gps? Or does it just recall top speed?

Did you already remove the cat and the exhaust valve? I am asking because I just put my ECU back in and one of the functions the flash does is cancel the exhaust valve function. I am asking for hints on this if anyone else has already done this. I don't know if the valve will be stuck open or closed, but with my luck it will be closed and restricting exhaust flow. Appreciate any advice.

Silver glad to hear you like it.....just be carful on the 200 run..... I'm pretty sure your going to run out of gearing.... I think it's good to about 190 or so.Just got back from a nice 150 miler or so.This flash is definitely the way to go with this bike...and the pipe.I'm very happy with the flash.THANK YOU DON....you've done an excellent job with this.Feels much stronger all the way around.Gonna have to get used to her all over again.She is I would say...in the 'be careful' category fully.I'll try...but you guys know how this bike performs...she just screams "open me up"....even moreso now.Fuel mileage has gone up some as well.

When I removed the cat on mine,the valve was open.
To Somefun..I already topped out with the stock configuration.She hit indicated 191.

Silver at what RPM?

That was at the factory limiter.So I think...13.5?Plus we know the throttles were closing.That's a biggie there.I could feel the throttles close down...subtly.At around 10K.
Get a 20 tooth counter sprocket or a 40 tooth rear sprocket, that should put you right around or over the magic 200 mark. Does Don's flash give you 14 K max rpm ?
I put a +1 on the counter sprocket on my BMW and see an extra 10 mph top speed in every gear. Keeps the bike from wanting a wheelie as much as well.

When sprockets are available definitely an odd number teeth 19 on the front and odd 43 or 41 out back if more is needed.

Bob,
Call him: (717) 618-4212 he is more than willing to talk about any performance issues and pricing. Remember he is eastern standard time. I spoke with him for 10 minutes, nice guy.

Thanks but Brock has the flash now and I've dealt with him before, I'm in the UK, he gave great service and replied to communications. Counts for a lot in my book.

He gets a ton emails a day from people just asking questions.. This is what I was told.too much volume. They answer fast if you call. I've spoken with them several times.

"Would it be possible to order new flashed ECU from someone (Guhl or Brock) because I wouldn't like to send my original ECU?"...they can't GET an extra ECU..they don't have a purchased bike.It has to be from the original purchaser.But still...it's set for that particular bike....just any H2 ECU wouldn't work by just installing it into your bike...I don't think so anyway...from my understanding of the Manual.Maybe..not sure at all.But Guhl and them can't just by ECU's for this bike and flash em and sell em.Kawasaki's way of 'controlling' where these bike's parts are going?I don't think they want non buyers to build their own H2's in some shop somewhere.
"Couldn't the flash be done remotely? "...it would have to be downloaded into a file...then uploaded into some software that could do this...and then into the ECU.Kinda like the Powercommander deal.Download the files...upload into the PC.Course,the Powercommander isn't like the ECU.It's software is very different.(I think)
