and the cars ding ding ding over 100 kph - now THAT is annoying.
|
Just watched an old episode of Top Gear filmed in Japan. Apparently all vehicles there are factory limited to 180Km/h. That's not too bad (180 is nothing to sneeze at and most cars take quite some time to even reach that speed, if they can reach it at all), but it's still an arbitrary restriction. The good thing is that the Mitsubishi they tested recognized when they took it to the race track and removed the restriction there without any input/action required from the driver.
Speaking of limiters/restrictors, my '01 Sebring 2.7 was limited to about 185. I've hit it only once and never would have found out it existed if I wasn't on a closed course . I have no idea if my current '05 2.7 is limited.

I got some ECU flashing equipment for 2006-2011 R6's and 2007 and 2008 R1's. I was looking over the R1 maps and comparing them to the factory maps. When I pulled up the "EU" bike model, I'm like WTF is wrong with this map? They retard the timing 35 degrees over 9000rpm?!?! lol. Easy to see in the ECU what they do to limit the power to 100hp.
Hope those peeps over there get all their ECU's flashed with the US bin

Hmmm.... Modifying bikes in the UK illegal...? That means.... Suppliers will try to get rid of all their inventory ASAP and have a bunch of clearance sales for parts and exhausts! O_O
Nothing wrong with a 100 hp limit. As long as the bike weighs less than 400 lbs. Power to weight ladies, power to weight...............
It's understanding that makes it possible for a person such as myself to tolerate a person like you.
I'd like to see the black box data from my bike at a track day lol
My GF's 09 R6 was quite throttle limited down low, "anti-wheelie rider safety" lol.
Before/stock ECU:
After:
The flash also removed the top speed limiter of 318km/h, but I think that's more for R1's, no way an R6 is going to get anywhere near there other than on the rear stand with really tall gearing!
My neighbour came over and showed me some Porsche flashes he's done recently, where the ECU was locked to 85% throttle!

If you are not with us you are with the terrorists, child molesters, or any other fabricated or over-hyped public enemy flavor of the day. We will continue to have backwards, prohibitionist, alarmist, ineffective, etc. laws as long as we allow politicians and other public servants to pull arguments like that without immediate and severe repercussions to their careers.
That's a neat map if I ever saw one . Perfect symmetry .

That is exactly the point. They couldn't produce hard data unexplainable by other factors to prove that this fascist piece of crap legislation did anything to make the roads safer than the laws that came before it (and they were real stiff towards street-racing and other criminal behavior).
