Im sorry this has been posted before, I tried looking in the knowledge vault but couldnt find anything... I have an 06, I am getting Hawks exhaust done, and a K& N Air filter, 99.9% curvy roads, the .01 is for off roads that I would probably never do, so Im getting Pilot 2's put on it. On buell mods there are quiet a few different maps, 2 for each year, including stock or race, but I was wondering should I go with like an 08 so the fan logic would be different, or stick with the 06 race? thanks guys |

"Im getting Pilot 2's put on it". These work great on this bike. I love them. "08 so the fan logic would be different". I do not think you can do this on the 06 bike. I do not know the Hawk can but if you add a free flowing can, K&N air filter and open up the air box you will need to re-map the ECM or use a fueler. The 06 bike needs this in the low/mid rev range as the OEM fueling is ok for its own can but will run lean otherwise. The engine is in a high state of tune and a can will only save weight, sound better and give a little better "pick up" on the throttle/control. Which for fast bendy roads is good. Depends what you are trying to do. |

I have heard that Randy will load his Hawk map to your ECM if you send it to him. Might wanna give him a shout. |

Uly man, thank you, I hope the pilots are a nice tire, I have them on my ninja 250 and really like them. Portero72 I was unable to send the ECM to him as the bike is being worked on, but he said he would email me the map and I can load it myself. Its been said many times, but randy is just a great guy. |

Bos- I have heard that, as well. Had a buddy w/ a Hawk can on his bike. Loved it. Good luck w/ the new setup. |

I loved my Hawk exhaust .... great sound / performance & working with Randy made for the quickest & easiest mod I've done, besides the fact that he was nice to chat with about other stuff as well. I have been accused in the past as being Randy in disguise for my praise but I'm not. I bought a race ecm from E.B.R. & they set it up for me based on my Hawk, K&N, & open airbox. The only reason I traded out the Hawk was because I got a really good deal on a prettier shiny SS Drummer. |
