Hi Guys I guess its locked in the IC but if I bought an ebr ecm does the current mileage stay the same? Thanks |

Yes, mileage is stored in the cluster and ECM for redundancy. OD won't be effected by ECM change. |

It is stored in both. Changing the ECM will not affect the odometer. |

Is there an echo in here? |

Funny story, had my cluster changed on an 08. Service manager tells me mileage will read zero because since Buell is out of production they cant calibrate the IC any more. So with my experience with HD Service I always call BS to anything they say. I pick the bike up and the Odometer reads --------. I run down the street about a mile and the Odo still reads dashes. So I go back and tell the Service manager that the Odo doesn't read anything and he says yea I said it would be zero. I'm not real good a math but I don't think ------ is the same as 000000. So the service manager and the mechanic poke and prod and scratch their head until they get a brilliant idea to look at the manual. Well it turns out there is a lot of info in the manual that would be nice to know, like that it takes the bike running for 30 minutes before the IC locks to the ECM. FYI the Service counter will reset to zero. |

lol yeah it takes a half hour for the handsahke to to occur if it was still reading 0000 then you could pull the fuse for the ign switch iirc and that should help the ic pull the mileage from the ecm. mine reset itself to 0000 after a battery cable pull when wrapping the headers. pulled the fuse and all was weel again save for the 246 miles it put on it while trying to figure out how to fix it |

So what will happen if I fit my ebr ecm with 3500km on my IC to my friends bike that has only traveled 600km? Will his IC show 3500km after 30 mins?? |

i am pretty sure that once the cluster has learned the millage, it will not change it again no matter what the millage that is stored in the ecm. |

I can't remember, but one of the units is the dominant side of the handshake. If there are conflicting values (as opposed to a value and a null), I think there is a procedure that has to be gone through in order to get one of the mileages to come out on top. |

if the mileage in the cluster is 0/new, it will get the mileage of the ecm. once the mileage is stored in the cluster, it no longer cares what mileage the ecm has. so as long as your mileage is learned and stored in the cluster, you can use any ecm of the proper calibration, with any mileage, and it will not have any effect on the cluster mileage. |

ECMs appear to be "swappable" with no issues. I have no problem going from OEM to EBeeR ECMs and back. When I had my IC replaced, I rode it for the 30 minutes countdown then all was normal. No countdown when swapping the ECM tho. Z |

The cluster is the Dominant of the 2 items... I did have an issue once with the cluster.. but it figured itself out and then i got the cluster replaced cause it had an issue.. Swapping ECM form bike to bike should not affect the odometer reading at all.. |
