Basically, the Unrestricted file opens the throttle to 100% in a broader range than the Stock file. You can start with that and adjust according to your riding style and comfort level. So somebody at FT ECU spent time changing these values. They have different Throttle-by-Wire values. I compared the Unrestricted file with the Stock file. That's where the real value of the FT ECU is. If not then create your own tune for your unique bike, and change it when things change on your bike. ![]() If they work for your bike and you're happy then great. So I don't see how anybody can complain about that. So the canned maps have limited value anyway, but they are free after all. Absolute optimum power tuning for each bike would require a unique tune for that bike. The smallest manufacturing variations will create different demands. The pre-packaged Graves maps are designed to work with the Graves systems. You have access to everything, unlike with the PC5. It's far better than using a Powercommander. The product is as good as any Race Kit ECU and the software used to tune it. ![]() Chuck gave me a demonstration of the software and I bought the FT ECU right then and there at his shop. I knew about the Graves maps being locked down before I bought the FT ECU. Once my exhaust arrives I will reflash to graves file and report back.ĭon't get me wrong, I don't regret the purchase at all. I have not tried the Graves file yet, im sure as typical with Graves their products have excellent R&D, but thus far im not to happy with the FTECU file on its own, which on other motorcycles that I have had flashed with them, I was. ![]() I wanted to have a great start point and fine tune if needed from there. For someone like myself who can admit that im not all familiar with how to make changes on the software, and what increments to do, I wasn't really looking for project of dialing in the bike from scratch. Certainly didn't feel like any additional power was gained from the unrestricted map and even things that FTECU always does well like heavily reducing engine braking wasn't really changed and required the user to go in and make changes. However on the R1, while I was expecting the same, aside from changes of removing some emission based components from the bike really didn't feel any difference to my surprise. In my past experience Flash Tune has been pretty thorough with their base tunes and generally I have noticed large changes right out the gate. I did not modify any settings from the already made Unrestricted file. I started flashing the bike with only the FT ECU unrestricted file as I do not have my full exhaust yet and only have a slip on. Software install straight forward but software driver install was difficult for some reason. Removal of the fairing and ECU was very easy and done in less then 15 minutes.įT ECU kit, straight forward decent quality harness. I understand that the gas mileage on the crossplane crankshaft is nowhere near that of the earlier inline 4's, (I think the specification lists 33MPG on the Yamaha website), but it would be great to hear what your average MPG numbers are (average not instantaneous).Purchased from the Graves the Flash Tune Type 18 Bench Flash Kit I've see your posts on youtube and thanks for all the info you've laid out thus far!!!Īny info you can give me would be appreciated! I understand that the gas mileage on the crossplane crankshaft is nowhere near that of the earlier inline 4's, (I think the specification lists 33MPG on the Yamaha website), but it would be great to hear what your average MPG numbers are (average not instantaneous). At any rate, it bothered me enough that I eventually removed the PC3 so I could ride longer and not have to stop for gas. It was a pain to be the "guy" always having to stop and get gas when my buddies and I were doing long canyon rides. My MPG went from about 42MPG to about 29MPG. While it ran cooler and the powerband was better, my gas mileage dropped considerably. The sound was awesome, then I custom tuned it with a PC3. Has it gone up or down following your ECU flash? The reason why I ask is that my first R1 (06'), I had put on a pair of racing baffles. I have a question about gas mileage after you tuned the bike. ![]() I am definitely going to put on a pair of two brothers slip-ons as well. I absolutely love how it handles thus far. I just picked up the exact same year and color R1.
