ECU Flash from Ivan's Performance available - Page 43

Keith72 · 06-10-2018, 08:10 PM

Just got back from another ride post flash. Went about 90 miles. Bike seems to run smoother and quieter. No change in operating temps. Was about 90 degrees today. Seemed to pick up about 1mpg average. From 44 to about 45mpg average. Again as mentioned in my last post it has stopped backfiring/decel popping. Couldn't be happier.

Thanks Ivan

Just got my ECU back from Ivan this morning for the 3rd generation re-flash. I must say it is much better for slow speed drive ability and it kept a smooth idle on cold start up. It ran perfect in the higher gears also.

For those on the fence about doing this just have it done and enjoy your new bike.

Thanks Ivan for your dedication to a great product and customer service

Finally got my ECU sent off to Ivan this AM. He'll get it tomorrow. Can't wait to get it back! I had a Cobra FI2000 but am taking it off. That thing was the most wasted $ I think I've ever spent on a motorcycle!

You'll be so happy with the difference, that the cost of both together will still be worth it!

Ride safe,

I've got the first gen flash and I do notice it's a bit jerky at slow speed is that what you're referring to? I've been thinking it's me but you say the third gen flash will get rid of it maybe? The jerky bit, not the driver jerk :-)...........Mike

Yes, you will have a better riding bike at slow speed. It will be worth the cost of shipping for this update.

Back in FEB 2018 was thinking about getting Ivan's ECU flash but did not get it sent in before weather warmed up so I could start riding. Had put bike away for 2018 and on Nov 23rd 2018 it warmed up to 43° F did not go for ride like I was going to but did get the ECU out of bike and sent in to Ivan. Got it back on Dec 1st 2018 (ground shipping) on DEC18th 2018 warmed up to the 40's so put the ECU back in bike and tried going for a ride but only went about 5 miles Road was Icy where shade hit the road Two days later went about ten miles but still some icy spots so put bike away for the winter. did not ride enough to know for sure but so far when first start bike up seems to idle a little faster maybe 500 rpm but goes down to 900 rpm after warmed up The exhaust sounds Just a little higher pitch at idle and when I was riding No slop in the throttle and it is some faster when accelerating. Glad I had this done and this summer will be able to tell the difference for sure but for now after only about 15 miles I know there is a difference in the positive direction.

Just got mine back. Ivan was fast and great to work with, thank you sir! Only able to do a short 30 mile run, but bike definitely seemed to have more when I turned the throttle to pass a car. Jumped up with more power. Idles nice, so far very happy. One item was I have a Racnray throttle mod as well and Ivan mentioned i may not like the combination of the two mods, might consider removing the Ray mod as the ECU flash should offer a similar response. I did not remove it and the two, for me, seem to be fine. Love the bike's response and the throttle mod, for me, works well with the flashed ECU.

Just got my reflash done. Rode the bike to his shop in Greenville and rode it back home, 4 hour round trip. WOW, what a difference! Throttle response improved, no more backfiring on decelerating, cooler engine temperatures, overall ride quality is greatly improved. Well worth the cost to reflash the ecu. Also made upshifts and downshifts smoother due to improved throttle response. Thanks Ivan!

Wondering if I should get the latest version. I already have version 2.0

**vulcanscott** · 04-08-2021, 09:25 PM

Mine goes back tomorrow morning for the Update C4B3 I believe

royhobbs1977 · 06-13-2021, 05:44 PM

I was reluctant to send mine back yet again... It's a long way, and shipping is expensive from way down here - not to mention the three weeks it takes to get to Ivan and back when I can't ride.

So I asked Ivan by PM whether he thought it was worth it, when I was entirely happy with the bike as it was after a flash and then two updates. He assured me it was.

A week after the final update, I can report that Ivan was right... With this update my bike just rides better than it has ever before.
