Looking good. Did you get the ECU and air filter that go with the Termis?

Yes the full kit - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...IBSA:GB:1123:D



The throttle response is is now pin sharp and the lurching at lower revs has all but gone, although I have dropped a cog size on the front which has also helped I guess.

Despite varying stories of having to have the ECU set-up by a dealer etc. I decided to just plug and play and see how it went and put it back to standard if it ran like poop. It was a bit lumpy on tickover but has now settled down. I read somewhere that the TPS is reset after powering the ECU on/off 3 times in succession. I did this and it certainly seemed to smooth everything out in idle but who knows

I did have a heart in mouth moment yesterday though, my Dad came round to have a listen but I couldn't get it to fire up - visions of void warrantys and dodgy ECU's filled my head. 15 mins passed only to realise the neutral light wasn't on - it was in gear with the sidestand down

Glad you got the weapons of your choice.I doubt whether you will get rid of trademark 'WONKY ' as I reckon they weld it in for the customers GRATIS. I think your right about ECU fittting. I just popped down my local Ducati independant to fit mine as was unsure about all the access to it.( Wish I hadn't as broke collar bone on the way ) Glad you now getting some miles on it. Trackday it with us lot in July 1st at Mallory.

I think you're right about the 'WONKY', the L/H pipe would need chopping down and a new bracket made to get it perfect - which in reality isn't going to happen! I'll put it down to 'character'

I would love to come to Mallory and still have it in mind to come. I have found someone to match up the zips on my mismatched two piece leathers. I now just need to confirm time off work which to be honest isn't looking likely as it stands I shall chase it up this week and give a definative answer before the week is out......

No need to apologise for the lack of carbon, using the baffles though - that needs explaining

I have no reason really. I guess I'm getting old. Its not like I go out at silly O'clock hours either. My neighbours are ok but I dont feel like making noise lately unless on UKMOC run .
Maybe I shall take them out today.
