Bike: 999R / 998 Bayliss

The bike runs a 57 mm asymetrical exhaust.

The general feeling is that the ECU is a mismatch to the rest of the bike.
It needs higher spec cams, Corse exhaust etc to make it perform. Secondly, the bike doesnt constantly live at racetrack speeds, which causes problems when you plod along at 2000rpm.

Either make it a track bike and uprate everything, or realise what it is and treat it accordingly - a consumer edition race machine with lots of compromises to make it go on a normal public street.

So, the old ECU went back in again last night. Pottering around I have been unable to get it to stall again, but that was just going up and down the street and annoying the neighbours. It is high summer here at the moment so testing it properly will take some time.

I have reset TPS / balanced cylinders / set CO at 4% / idle at 1300 rpm / reset TPS again. It is looking good so far with limited testing. I will keep an eye on the condition of the plugs now with the old ECU back in there.

Thanks for feedback, appreciated
