    Again super interesting and info loaded. On the booster plug. I have one on a rNineT and it did lower temps on the bike through visual pipe coloring. (Polished them between the change). The way I understand it, it only steps in when blip throttle or down low when the bike is reading the stock map. I get confused on close loop open loop jargon. So a sudden change…..parking lot, let off and coast, no throttle idle, etc…. It will richen the mix just a bit to smooth the throttle out with extra fuel just at that brief moment. Otherwise as soon as the ecu kicks in with adjustments by reading air temp and oxygen sensor etc…..the bike goes straight back to it’s normal fueling. So I could see why a Dyno run would show no gain in hp…it did smooth mine out in the slow stuff….and I believe it would make the ktm500 more input friendly in that situation too.

    I'm confused about the TPS on the Vortex, I just watched a video where you stated that resetting the TPS was a Myth? Here you're saying reset your TPS? I have a 2021 Honda CRF450RL, air box mod (boot and screen removal) Full Yosh system and the Vortex ECU. According to Tokyo mods, they tell me that there is no need to reset the TPS, your thoughts? Also, hopefully this can be answered, my bike will blow pop and stall on deceleration but only within the first 15 mins of riding, then I don't have an issue all day. I've seen some Pro's (CZcamsrs) change there fuel to 5,6,7. I asked Tokyo mods about this and they stated to leave it at 5,5,5 or I can go to 5,6,6. The ECU didn't take away the throttle twitch, with that said, I never rode this bike stock I rode my buddies stock 21 450RL the other day and his bike was smooth as silk, none of the issues that all the forums were talking about. Do you have any recommendations for my Vortex ECU and should I set the TPS? Thank you in advanced, Shane

    @ljm8673 Před 3 lety

    Hello, so I've been trying to figure out my next bike for desert racing/riding (just old man slow class). I want a wide ratio transmission because I currently ride a FX450 and had to switch up the sprockets, 13:48 to 14:49, but it does make the first couple gears really tall. Also ran into some scenarios where I might need a light. This is helpful because these bikes, fe350/501 or crf450x, seems you need an ecu as soon as you touch anything. But two things are really proving a pain, figuring out transmission ratios and stator outputs of different bikes. Do you know where to get ahold of this type of info?

    It’s apparent that these ECU’s (Vortex & Get) have evolved since their time of inspection with faster chip speeds as well as their capabilities. My question is, are they backwards compatible with the 12-16 bikes? For example and as far as I know, the newer 17+ bikes have a larger ECU pin out than the 12-16 bikes. Please explain how that works.

      @@RFlavin I don't have experience with the GET ECU's but I imagine if you're going from stock to any aftermarket ECU you are going to get a more powerful throttle response and so be at more risk for whiskey throttle.
      My advice for anyone that is timid due to a whiskey throttle incident, would be to watch CZcams on riding position and good riding techniques and then just work on getting more seat time - also stop riding once fatigued.
      Also as mentioned before, I've heard good things about the "Throttle Tamer" throttle tube. If I remember rightly it has 3 different levels of throttle taming to help keep you from whisky throttle.
