Remap by Hilltop Motorcycles

[Beemerman59]

Thanks for that ebbo. I'll give that a try.

In the mean time I've been educating myself on the subject and found this site very useful:

Geoff gave me a ring this morning and confirmed my slot for 11:30 on the 11th.

He also said that changing the plugs immediately wasn't absolutely necessary and that the bike could wait until it's next service! So now I'm in two minds whether to change them on the day or not!

What does the team think???

I'll work a compromise - I'll take a new set with me just in case but as long as the bike is running OK I'll keep for the next change.

As ever, apply Occam's Razor.....

lol, If I applied that principle I'd probably still be running around on my old 250 Super Dream, Mike.


I'd already thought the same as you BM and will have a set on standby.

Please.....No!

Now if it was my old Ducati 250 Mk3, that would be another matter entirely.

It was the best I could afford back in 1979 and I loved it.

I'll thank thee not to speak ill of the dead.

Thats funny as I had a 250 Superdream in 1978-9 as well!

Went up this morning and had my 2011 1200 TB done, I didn't do it for power as everyone knows that the TB's are much more powerful than the std 1200's anyway. I wanted to smooth out the vibes at around 5,000 rpm, more lower down torque and correct the lean running as I have a set of Remus headers and an Akropovic with no flap fitted and I was worried that I might have been asking for trouble

I didn't ask Geoff for anything specific just a remap, all I can say is that I got everything I wanted and more, the bike revved quicker as a result of the de-cat anyway but it really winds up quickly now, top gear roll-ons from 1,500 rpm are a blast.

I went up early this morning so did the A34, M40, A46, M69 route in about 2 hours so really boring, coming home I have come down the fosse way to cirencester and then across country, Wootton Bassett, Marlborough, Tidworth and home. The bike is a blast to ride, its top gear everywhere from about 30 mph.

On the way down I stopped for a drink of water in Stow and then Coffee at Cotswold water park - Does this qualify as a ride report?

Geoff is a top man, ignore the nay sayers and if you have been thinking about it my advice is just do it!

Anyway, enough from me, the chart says it all, if your interested the darker lines are after,+18hp (20%) & +16ft lb (23%) resulting in 101.38hp and 83.19ft lb - lovely!

Just ordered 4 NGK DCPR8EIX single electrode Iridium spark plugs direct from these guys at Green Spark Co.

Having done various searches they seem to be very good on price (although now I've said that I dare say someone will have found them cheaper ) but I don't care.

£26.29 delivered off Ebay - I ordered the same and already have these in the bike

Daffy's remapped Twin Cam compared to my re mapped Single Cam RT

Mapping

It would be interesting to see that comparison with an lc when Geoff gets a base map.

[Bendy toy]

With those sorts of gains some cam advance wheels would give even more midrange without losing the top end.

Bump....would be nice to get a fourth for this.

[Big Red]

You are all going to be very pleased, just don't look in the booth when your bike is in with Geoff.

Have already watched a YouTube clip of one being done

Thought I might take my camera and do likewise.
