Any ideas on relocating the ECM? The ECM is now mounted under the left pod. Looks vulnerable. Any ideas on where it could be relocated to? | ||

The only place I've seen any extra room is under the seat. That's where I plan on sticking the "abuse belt" Court is sending me. No idea if the cabling will reach or if you'd have to make jumpers/splices. Also it might get a bit warm for an ECM under there. Safest place tho, right under the twins... Z | ||

Well I crashed on the left side going 50 mph and the pod did exactly what it was designed to. New rad cover, ignition cover and oil line...good to go. | ||

Problem is that I have Flexiglass side panels that replace the stock pods. I also use my 1125 for racing. I think moving the ECM is a good idea. But thanks for the comment. | ||

Zack, you mean above the exhaust? I'm getting new exhaust soon I'll take a look. Thanks. | ||

I had a hard left side 60mph crash....didn't even touch it. Took out the whole left side though! | ||

Seems like I'm being misunderstood. I don't use the stock pods. Although I'm glad you did not suffer ECM damage when you crashed with the stock pods, that info does not help. BTW the first time I low-sided I was using the stock pods and didn't get any ECM damage. But you can see where it would be possible with lighter fiberglass panels. This is why I asked about relocating the ECM. BTW every non-Buell mechanic and racer that sees the ECM location comments on how it would be safer to move it.  | ||

Under the tail, behind the stock battery location, you should be able to find enough room now that your only racing. Happy soldering!  mm |
