Got a little rained on today but still nice. Wind has been behaving for the last 4 days. For once the wind is not suppose to blow this weekend. Seems like mon-fri will be nice and then the wind blows 40-50 on the weekend. FUCK YOU WIND!

You jump a circuit in the tail with a wire or paperclip that unlocks the Euro spec EFI maps. Unlocks power really high up in the rev range at about 13k rpm. Everybody gets all giddy about 5-6 hp, but some of the idiots online dont realize its all the way at the top of the powerband so you have to be cooking to get at it. Plus there are also people that say the setting is set up for Euro strength fuel. Helped my bud do it to his 06 636... he said he noticed some change.

Yep, Chop nailed it...And While I'm rarely at 13k During everyday riding...It's free Power. So why not have it? I've also read that it smooths out the throttle response throughout the entire power band. And the bike does fall flat on its face after 12k...And who doesn't love a quick trip to redline every now and then?

I didn't mean you. I'm talking about the people who think its a 15hp gain from the pull of the throttle. I have heard they do have a good drop off up high, but I thought that was the 05-06s? I thought they fixed that on your gen? Fantastic mod for track fun though...

No 05 to 08 But i think even the 09's and up can do it to...And no Mine falls flat on its face at 12k...From what guys have said it pulls strong all the way to redline after the jumper mod.

Yeah, in Daytona I found that my GS wags when there is some serious wind and I'm going about 90.

When talking to someone about it, they said I shouldn't be going 90. I found that to be an odd suggestion on Florida roads.
