1100 Evo or 1000 DS?

I've had my forks revalved and resprung by my (sort of ) local Ktech specialist. There were nearer options but KRG seemed the best option having sorted suspension on EVOs before. Couldn't stretch to a Nitron shock but he tried to find components to revalve and respring the shock but unsuccessful, so the shock has had a heavier oil and an Ohlins linear spring fitted. All matched to my weight.

So time to get my ECU to Neil at which point I find I have a DP air filter. So the bike has had both Lambdas removed, plugged and electric connection plugged, exhaust valve removed, carbon termis, DP air filter and top, DP seat all done before I bought the bike. Why? It puzzles me why anyone would upgrade all this and not remap the ECU. I checked the dash and no reference to DP there so I'm wondering if the remap has been done......but if it has why is the bike so bad at closed loop. I'll ring Neil for advice but guess Ill just have to send the ECU to him and hope the remap isn't already there. The ECU shows the following which suggests to me - the novice, that it is a "race" ecu and therefore DP but the dash doesn't confirm this

M1100evoRAC
DOB1U1EOB
Cp.SIL.RAC.
96521511B

The Air filter is dry - was expecting it to be oiled as per K&N, it does look pretty new though.

Finally, is there any point in changing the filter to some other hi flow version?

Filter is fine and does not need oiling, the ECU will be the unit that came with the exhausts and filter, if dash is showing race then it is the DP ECU, and will really benefit from then Rexxerr Flash, also the air filter inlet unit lid will have larger air entry holes to standard. https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=i&ur...AAAAAdAAAAABAD

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the upgraded suspension, Ian, once you manage to get out and about.

Those ECU details you've given confirm that it is the race unit, which is supplied with the carbon Termis and performance air filter kit. It sounds like you're probably just running an unmodified DP ECU, but Neil will know the moment he plugs it in whether or not it already has a Rexxer reflash.

I don't recall my DP filter being wet when new, but it is pink as opposed to the standard one, which is white. There would be nothing to be gained from changing to another hi flow filter unless you fit an MWR but that requires modifying the airbox and probably also a custom remap to suit.

Let us know how you get on.
