  1. I hear that ,,it wasn't a total waste ,,it helped somewhat I was expecting more after hearing how great it was ,,,the good thing is its for the life of the bike
  2. Im not saying dont or do it ,,there's lotsa post here for research,,,I had 3 complaints with bike ,, one it had a flat spot, almost a bog when hammering the throttle ,,for instance even at 5500 2and gear ,,it was flat ,,the flash fixed most of that the on off throttle twitchyness ,,about 30 % better surging during low rpms 1st and 2and gear ,,pretty much gone The good thing is they will reflash for life if you make any changes,,so I eventually want to change exhaust and it will need adjustment after that
  3. No I did not ask since its clearly stated and I have to respectfully disagree with you about the re flash,,,
  4. Curious what year is your bike ? I am 3 miles from his shop so when I called about an appt the guy working the counter said just bring it in we love walk ins ,,when I got there he wasn't interested in hearing my complaints with the bike and what I was hoping they could rectify ,,I wound up sitting outside {they don't have a waiting area } laying on the concrete for almost two hours,,it was a bit annoying .Now the guy that did the flash was the same guy from 4 years ago that did my fz07,,he's a super nice guy and will talk to you as long as you want ,,in fact we were taking for about 5 minutes before the other guy came back and told him to get back to work,,what a puss,,,,,anyway when I brought the bike back and told him about the temp setting he told me to talk to the puss and his explanation was ,,sorry sometimes we can't over ride the setting ,,blah blah blah ,,,the dude was rude,,one of those guys that are fiddling around and don't stop what they are doing while you are trying to talk to them. So I guess my beef is with the dude that answers the phone and seems to be running things when's Nels not around,,I also have dealt with Nels personally and emails and he is a stand up guy imo.Maybe I will drop him a line ,,
  5. I just don't like paying for something and then not getting what I paid for ,,,
  6. I know T W D gets raving reviews and I'm probably gonna get sheet for this ,,,but im not happy Two bikes re flashed ,,2017 fz07 and now 2020 Tracer GT ,,both with same minimal results both with same excuses ,, Has anyone else flashed with them only to be told AFTER you paid them SORRY we can't change the temp setting for cooling fan to come on. The thing is they don't tell you upfront,,,when you find out later its "" too bad that's the way it is there's nothing we can do """ that's one of their biggest selling points on their home page .,,,it's really painful to watch your temp gauge at a traffic light go from 180 to 221 before fan kicks in.
  7. One of the best features o the bike ,,I wish it was a bit more ,,I love it
  8. I removed my handgaurds,, these are to a fill the hole after removing guards and adding some protection.,, these are not wighted so its probably a wash , I don't have any gripes about bar vibration ,,I do have complaints about engine vibration at 4900 to 5500 rpm that transmits to foot pegs ,,there are post about adding weights via the inside of your bars ,,
  9. IM NO GOOD AT POSTING PICS,,BUT GOT THESE FROM TST INDUSTRIES ,,ANYTHING WITH A SHOULDER WONT WORK SO I GROUND IT DOWN ,,DONT KNOW WHY THERE ARENT MORE OPTIONS FOR TRACER THANKS ALL FOR HELPING OUT
  10. first thing I did when I got the bike home from dealer ,,,,Like james I cut at least couple inches off ,,looks much better and no wind buffeting ,,I wish it was light smoke
  11. now I see where your going with the bbs,,, handlebar buzz isn't really an issue on my bike ,,that insert looks different ,,looks oval shaped
  12. never heard of it,,,just googled and came up with daisy B Bs ,,hahah
  13. yeah but then im stuck with a weird transition ,,I really want to butt up against the bar end
  14. I ditched the guards ,,guessing these still work ?
  15. I got rid of handgaurds but now need bar ends ,,for the life of me I can't find any for 2020Tracer gt,,I bought some Womet for a MT 09 thinking they would work but NO ,,,the grips must hang out over about 3/4 of inch on the mt09
  16. can you tell us where from,,I'm having a heck of a time finding something. that works ,,I ditched handgaurds and ordered Womet for a MT 09,,that was a waste of money has they don't sit flush thanks
  17. interesting ,,could it because your in Cal with all their crazy restrictions ,,,my 2020 GT is pretty dam smooth { but I am coming off a fz07} ,,,plus no turbo explode as you put it ,,
  18. that's rather vague,,,I have my doubts about those guys ,,the dude that works the counter seems like a used care salesman,,kinda shady imo. both my tracer and fzo7 they claim to set cooling fan to kick on at 200 and both times they claimed they could not override it ,,im not a fan,,,no pun intended ,,not sure what part of the world your in but hopefully someone will chime in with good advice Best
  19. and I'm not here to bad mouth your dealer ,,they may be great but I had an absolute nightmare with my Tracer and would not trust them to put air in my tire,,I will never take my bike to them over an independent shop
  20. Im not clear when this all happened if right after the flash ,,or 10K after ,,,I would call or send an email to Nels at two wheel ,,
  21. I just installed a set of shortys ,,not a whole lot different than MZS from china I had on my fz o7,,,,,I did have to take up some slack down at the adjustment plate on both bikes ,,no big deal,,but I noticed the tab on clutch that sits against the the Cruise C release is just barely making contact I mean just barely ,,,haven't had a chance to ride it yet ,,hope its not a problem
  22. so if you say downshift to 4th at 60 and hammer throttle does it pull away good was it like this before or after the re-flash
  23. 30 MPH in 6th gear ?? 😜 why ?? I think that's your problem ,,,,don't mean to be overly critical but if I understand you correctly that's the worst thing you can do is bog it down like that
  24. I had the same sliders and did the same-thing on my fzo7,,,thought about doing what betony suggested to but it didn't feel comfortable ,,,I have been looking everywhere for sliders ,,where did you get those ??,,I wonder if the ones for FZ07 would work
