Just do it!

I (and probably several others) have been in your shoes in the past and look back wondering what all the fuss was about. A whole new world of nerdiness beckons. 
Take it step by step and if in doubt continue to fire in questions here - you'll receive (mostly) good advice and gain from the collective experience of MyECU users. There are no silly questions believe me. Enjoy the experience. I'm just across the North Sea, and an 1100 sport inj owner so appreciate the short season we have too. Razs map is well proven and I would recommend it if you don't want to go for Cliffs starter.

Karma. The old girl realises you are letting her go and couldn't take it - so fried her chips. Hope you stick around the forum Raz - it will be dull without you and your "steam train"

If any of you are bored:-http://youtu.be/Z-wLN0QevyM - a classic pass in the west of Scotland done last month. Should see it with snow!

Hi Cliff - road goes from sea level at Loch Kishorn (east of the Isle of Skye) to the top of the pass at about 2000 feet and down to the Applecross village and pub where really big scallops and squat lobster with a Chardonnay can be had. The irony is the road is free from sand and grit from the winter just when the tourists arrive and bog you down. Have done the pass in 17 minutes but ran into fog at the summit - that was a brown trouser moment! Also had a clutch cable go 1/3 into the run (edit - on a separate occasion!). Teeth were pretty sore when I got over the hill.


No trees - red deer eat them all.

If it wasn't for the potential of maybe reinstating the original then a different connector would be the way to go. Mmmmm - where's that RS catalogue.....there is probably one half the size and with a better IP "rating".

Good your fired up again - I just made a major booboo this w/e - broke an ez out off in a left pot exhaust manifold stud - hope I can find a decent spark erosion engineer round here. There was an inevitability about changing them out that screamed CAUTION! Anyway gives me a chance to tidy up some other bits that were niggling me. Plugs looked a really nice colour too!

Cheers for that - still feel like a dickhead - could see it happening in slomo..... ach well .... never mind.

Didn't go the spark erosion route - nearest one is 100 miles away apparently. Good old drill out and infill by class welder in Inverness then re-drill and tap. Back on the road last w/e and over the hills to the RAF Leuchars airshow where the last remaining Vulcan bomber flew by - magic howl from engines on throttle up .
Still suffering from the Cat 5 plug in the ecu socket to the optimiser coming loose when I sit on the seat hard - anyone else got this problem? Simple resolutions? Thinking of hard wiring to pcb - it's the fact it sticks up then has to go through 90 deg out of the rubber grommet and the seat base is directly above - any movement with my lardy ass and it pushes it off center and I lose optimiser and tacho. Fortunately the bike still runs. Inconvenient rather than major PITA - if you'll pardon the pun.
