Cool John!well, better late than never!!
I finally had the time to work on my own stuff and got the tune monster hooked up last night!!
There's quite a bit to it that most won't understand, but I find it relatively simple to use. similar to a MSD charge FI, with an autotune and datalogger.
I used my LM-2 as the autotuner and wired it into the Monster ECU. did some base runs last night on the dyno and finished them up this afternoon.
Speed limiter is now GONE. I'm pushing 72.9 rwhp with the setup I have in it now. and I still have to datalog my A/F at speed, so I'm heading to the Windmill roads for some top speed runs.
fastest I had it here on the road by the shop (about 1/4 mile uphill stretch) is 85 mph and it was still climbing slowly. figure 86-87 might be tops for this in flat dirt.
Notably the motor runs cooler with the fan on at 180 off at 170.
I have to give a big thank you to Steve at Tune Monster for hooking up a fabulous tuner for these machines, and answering all my questions.
the price is more than most would suspect, but you get so much more. It's actually a bargain compared to all the pieces it would take to do this separately.
when I finalize more tunes and get some more seat time on this I'll gladly share my files to see what most are using.
I still have to finish autotuning the hard and very hard slots, then I'll manually corrrect anything I see using the datalogger and the mapping feature.
felt good to take a ride again on the 1000. its only been sitting there for a few months waiting for me to get the install done!!

Yep, I removes those "nanny's" and you can do anything you want to your timing.So does this take out the "so called power restrictions" that guys said the stock 1000 came with? As far as pulling timing on the top end, and down low to make it feel softer and be safer?
just curious, as I expected the HP numbers to maybe be more if these limiters really were removed.........But I'm not an expert with these things by any means.
Thanks for the reviews!
Any guess as to how much they limit the power ? Just curious if you "felt" the difference, or not.

about 2rwhp and you can definitively tell the better throttle response.Any guess as to how much they limit the power ? Just curious if you "felt" the difference, or not.

no problem. just wait until I fine tune it in.Renelander said:Cool John!
I can't wait to get a copy of your file!
