I'm about to purchase a race ECM for my '03 XB9S. Do any local Denver, Colorado Buellers know the cost of the TPS reset...in addition I remember seeing that you can switch the ECM in the parking lot and then have them reset the TPS is this accurate? I'm just trying to plan my attach.

At our shop a simple TPS rest is 32.50
You can swap it in the parking lot.

Hey Dave, what does a race ECM for an '03 Buell cost with the super good guy discount?

1/2 hour labor is about standard, around $30 IIRC
I would call the shops to be sure, there are only 2 here, so it wont take long. : )

Trevor,
I just had my TPS reset at Rocky Mountain H-D/Buell. They charged 1/2 hour labor...$35 plus tax. They did a good job. The bike runs much smoother off of idle, than before. Chris, one of the Buell mechanic's, did it and he was very nice to talk to afterward.

I'll be doing the same thing soon... probably try Rocky Mnt. HD/Buell...

Last time I went to the Greeley shop, I felt like they took a super long time, saw the guy thumbing through the manual... bike didn't run that well afterword. Just my impression though.

I actually went in the thursday before Xmas, asked if they could get me in now, and they said ok. I would call before. I think I got lucky with no appointment. They said things were slow. With all the nice weather weve been having, that could change I guess. They said they have 2 Buell mechanics. They charge a minimum of 30" to do the TPS that took about 20. I would go back again.

Do you need to reset the TPS because you are putting in the new ECM?

I've used the greeley shop, only because i live there and purchased the bike there. Due to this, I've purchased a whole bunch of tools, the shop manual, a lift, and the technoresearch package. Among other reasons, 5 visits to fix a leak in a braided oil line is 4 too many.
