  1. From TuneBoy-"If the ECU has been flashed it will be replaced by our flash, nothing I can do about that." So, not unless 2WDW comes up with a c.c. feature with their tune, out of luck.
  2. Sounds like a good reason for Nels to figure out how to get CC into his flashes... I agree, an ecu flash & cruise from 2WD would be a great combo.
  3. I'm not sure to be honest, but it looks like the TB flash is more user-involved rather than sending your ecu in and having them do the changes.
  4. Me too! TuneBoy's product offers a lot IF one wanted to utilize it.
  5. Below is more information that I just received from TuneBoy...... This will support MT09,FJ09 (normal, ABS and Tracer), XSR900 as well. This is much more than a simple flash, it adds a bunch of new features. If someone has already had the ECU flashed it is not with our software. If the ECU has been flashed it will be replaced by our flash, nothing I can do about that. Here is some info I sent to someone else earlier today. It is more than just the cruise control. Here is a little info. Once the ECU is reflashed it will have the following features. Live mapping, this means you can change fuel and ignition while the motor is running, the changes can be saved to the ECU without a reflash like a full aftermarket ECU. QuickShifter up and down (Need to buy the shifter for this, shifter plugs into O2 sensor plug). Launch control using IMU like the latest R1 (IMU is built into the flash device). Lean angle based throttle (using IMU). The flash module has built in WiFi, this will allow some Apps on the phone (Still working on that side). Video of the cruise control Video of the launch angle stuff. Here is a little more info on the features. The wheelie (launch control) allows you to set an angle to cut each cylinder. Example. Set Cyl1 to 10, Cyl2 to 15 and Cyl3 to 20 The ECU will keep track of your riding angle, up or down hill until the throttle goes past a set throttle point, at that time it fixes the zero point at that angle. Now once the wheel goes past 10 degree’s the fuel for cylinder 1 will cut, if it drops below 10 degree’s it will come back on again. If it goes past 15 degree’s cyl 1 and 2 will be cut. To start with I have just added this for first and second gear, you can set the three angles for first and a different three for second. The lean angle stuff works as follows. The map has two throttle tables, one for fifty degree’s leaned and one for zero degree’s. If the bike is at 30 degree’s and the rider starts to turn the throttle the 30 degree’s is locked in until the throttle gets to 100% or back to 0, this prevents the throttle changing without rider input. The software looks up both tables then interpolates between the two values, as an example if the leaned over value was 10 and the upright value was 20 the 30 degree lean value would be 14. You can adjust these leaned over and upright tables in the software. The launch control also has a hold RPM, when the bike speed is 0 you can turn the throttle and the RPM won’t go past the hold RPM. Once the bike starts moving the ECU waits for 1/10th of a second then allows the rev limit to go back to normal. After this the angle stuff will stop the wheel coming off the ground more than you want it to. The WiFi module will add a few geek functions. From the phone you will be able to blip the throttle (Only allowed when speed is 0) The cruise control uses a single button (The mode button). When the throttle is closed the mode button will change map modes like normal. When the throttle is not zero it will start cruise going and won’t change the map mode. Once cruise control is going a short push of the mode button will add 1kph to the cruise speed, a long press will take 5kph away from the cruise speed. This is nice and simple and does not require any extra buttons. I plan to provide a true wheelie control down the track, this will control throttle instead of cutting fuel. This will only be allowed to give as much throttle or less than the rider has turned, if you back off the throttle the throttle will back off. Think of this like a cruise control with a target angle instead of a target speed, if the bike is moving toward the target angle quickly the throttle will back off quickly, if the angle starts to drop the throttle will be applied again. Should be a laugh, needs LOTS of testing. The Tuning kit will be $399, this will give all the tuning options and include the flash module with built in IMU. Cruise Control will be an extra $199. The QuickShifter will be $499, this will be cut to length and direct plug in so no skill required. I will be offering a discount for people that buy the full kit, if they buy the Tuning kit and the QuickShifter I will include the cruise control for free. The only hold up is that I am waiting for the parts. Waiting on an order of the Cordona QuickShifters and the plugs and pins needed to plug directly into the Yamaha wiring loom. I may add the “Buy Now” stuff to our web site so I can get an idea of the interest.
  6. Thought I'd start a thread pertaining to TuneBoy's cruise control that is to be available in a week or two-this is what I was told by them. Just checked on their Facebook page and they had this video of an FZ-09 w/ cruise: Cruise is activated by a long press on the mode button. A normal press of the mode button is used to switch modes like normal. When Cruise Control is in control of the speed a press of the mode button adds 1kph to the target cruise speed without changing the map mode.
  7. What brand/type of paint did you use? Looks like a good match.
  8. Anyone have experience with the Tech Spark Studio service manuals? This one is available for the FJ-09: http://www.ebay.com/itm/182464509002?ul_noapp=true
  9. Good-looking FJ Hlmiskelly! Looks good with the color-matching FJR bags & the beak.
  10. Has anyone installed the later style pegs used on the FJR? May be a bit higher that the FZ06 style, but provide better vibration dampening?
  11. That's an option! Have you cut an oil filter apart to see what the magnet picked up?
  12. The oem R1 plug from Yamaha is not magnetic. The one on eBay that I provided the link for is. I found over on the FZ09 site that some used the oem R1 plug on their FZ.
  13. With the purchase of a FJ-09 just around the corner, looking at drain-plug options and came across this low-profile magnetic plug for the Yamaha R1, no reason it wouldn't work in the FJ-09? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Magnetic-Oil-Sump-Drain-Plug-fits-2016-Yamaha-R1-90340-14019-00-PSR0206-/311557082474?hash=item488a3fcd6a:g:ppcAAOSwezVW1GZf&vxp=mtr
  14. What size are your helmets? I have a Shoei RF-1100 (Medium size). Will it fit in the bags?Had a large TZR and now a medium RF1200.
  15. Hello, are you sure that a helmet can fit in fjr bags? From what I have read, they are not big enough I can fit my Shoei full face helmets in the FJR hard bags no problem.
  16. But less traffic and nice backroads in SW Wisconsin, a.k.a. "Alphabet Roads".
  17. Roof looks cool, how hard to get replacement shields or other parts?
  18. Purchased a new RF1200 Mystify graphics and the Transition shield from Motorcyclegear.com. Only have used it on one 300 mile ride so far. Really like the Transition shield, works as it should. Had a TZ-R previous to this helmet and I liked the one front top vent-over the 3 individual top vents on the 1200, not a deal-breaker.
  19. Any chance to get a pic sometime with you or someone sitting on the bike with feet on the highway pegs? Curious to see them "in use".
  20. Looks like Ermax has some nice windscreens for the MT / FJ.
  21. Not sure how you adjust the bars, and I was looking at that earlier today as a local dealer got in their 1st FJ. You could be correct on the procedure you listed.
