So I did more testing this evening. I did just over 100 miles of varying road conditions. A roads, fast B roads, Town centre work and duel carriageway....
TOWN CENTRE.
Smooth throttle all the way, roundabouts and mini roundabouts are effortless. I even managed to negotiate them with just my throttle hand on the bike and my left hand resting on my leg (except for when I needed to indicate)!
FAST B ROADS.
Smooth roll on through the corners and very stable when getting on the power coming out of the corner (a lot of the time pointing skyward)! The power is epic and it didn't miss a beat. Bumps and the odd undulating road surface were no problem and the fuelling is absolutely spot on.
A ROADS.
I found that when cruising along at a steady pace the bike felt very settled and planted. When I gave it a fist full on an overtake the power was instant and the delivery was nice and progressive. I tried many a time to "unsettle" the bike by ripping the throttle back/chopping the throttle and it just got straight on the power in an instant. Obviously the front was very easy to get liftoff but we knew that anyway lol.
DUEL CARRIAGEWAY.
Well.... Wot can I say....! Now the 5th and 6th gear restrictors have been removed the thing near on goes into orbit. I won't tell you the indicated speed on the clocks (u never know who's reading this these days)! but I can assure u it goes way past wot we've already seen.
Yes I have heard good things about the Yamaha flash but this flash goes way beyond that...! The Yamaha flash mite have cured the snatch but thats all it can do, the results from this flash are way beyond my expectations. Being able to do things like reduce the temp the fan comes on, turn off or reduce engine braking, default start up to A mode, remove the restrictors, turn off the clean air system, I also think that it's a very clever thing being able to load my existing PCV map straight onto my ECU and of course it's completely changeable whenever I want.
We will continue to test the bike as we have a few more things we want to try out but for me it's completely changed the bike (for the better)! I now have a seriously crackers bike but in the same breath it's got so much usable power/torque it's just an out and out pleasure to ride and I wouldn't hesitant in recommending this to anyone who wants that extra from their bike that they can't get elsewhere.
TO BE CONTINUED.....!
