Absolutely. If I paid £360

Well it only got another 3 bhp and 2 lb/ft of torque at lower revs, so the figures aren’t that exciting. But the smoothness in the graph, and the torque when riding it is noticeably better. So I’m happy.

Hilltop smooth the dyno power graph by plotting fewer points along the rpm axis so the line looks smoother. He doesn’t make any changes to specific rev ranges - that’s called remapping and takes 3 or 4 hours to do. How thick are you lot?

Are there any good places for a decent brekkie in Swansea, if so try one..........

I had my 2017 GS Rallye Hilltopped remotely in Jersey last week. I was pensive whether it would be worth the money as I was generally happy with the fuelling of my bike. I can report that I do notice an improvement and I am happy with my 'investment'. It is not night and day, more night and dawn but the improvement justifies the price in my opinion. I'm on the ferry to Portsmouth on Thursday night and riding up to the Touratech travel event so I will enjoy the improvement in full off the rock.
Glad to hear that Smogbob
Bit the bullet, and went to see Geoff today for a sprinkling of his special sauce.
As always, the torque has been smoothed out. Power is a bit more than my last 1290, but not by much, however, the bike now pulls like a train and goes as it should.
This is my seventh bike he’s done, and I’m always impressed how the wizard makes these bikes perform properly, without the strangulation of the regs.
so how does it work when you go for a service and they flash a new map.... go back to hill top and ask nicely for them to redo it all over again for free?
mines due a recall electronics update...
mind you I expect it'll still need a map, on a light throttle, low gears, town work it even make it look like BMW know what they are doing
Hilltop map is in a different area of the ecu not affected by software updates.

Sort of, after all the software adapts for any hardware fitted after installing, ie, headers, akra, k&n or the usual tat !I never said it was erased, I was saying if the original map is updated then the hilltop addon is now an addon for an out of date map and therefor no longer really optimised for the current map,
it might be a bit better than nothing, but really needs to be updated to suit the respective changes of the map its now got
