You had told everyone how to reset something on their buells using the throttle by opening and closing it etc. Can you help me please by explaining this again. I have an 09 firebolt. | ||

TPS reset....... | ||
| Froggy |
For 2008 and later Buell twins TPS reset is built-in and very simple. Buell TPS Reset/Rezero Procedure for 2008 & later Buell XBikes and 1125R/CR motorcycles: | ||

on my bike, holding the throttle WOT results in reseting the front wheel into the sky | ||
| Froggy |
You must own an 1125 then, try that on a XB and you just make a lot of noise.  | ||
| No_rice |
i dont know... my xb's would rather look at the sky... | ||

whats the TPS reset for? | ||

Frank....I gather you have not ever ridden a properly tuned tuber..........?  | ||

My XB likes to look at the sky sometimes. Ya know, theres a reason I don't take an 1125 in any form for a test ride. My credit would be maxed, and she would be PISSSSSED! Love my XB, and will get an 1125 when I can afford to keep the XB also.  | ||

The helicon is like the willy wonka choclate room If you wanna view paradise simply look around and view it!!!!!!!! I did love my XB though that was the funnest bike I ever owned till the CR. I will own an X1 at some point though they are crazy sexy machines!!!! | ||

Thank you Froggy. Does the dash do anything to let you know if your doing it right? Like beeping or lights flashing etc? | ||
| Froggy |
If you have an 1125 you can read the TPS voltages from the dashboard to confirm, but the XB's are too stupid, you would need ECMspy to confirm. | ||
| Brightbuell |
Ouch! Lets just call them special.  | ||

One more question Froggy, will it •••• up my bike if I do a TPS reset if I have and after market Voodoo exhaust and intake mod. I dont have a race ECM. My bike runs good but not great. It really needs to be smoothed out. Whats your advice? | ||
| Froggy |
Thankfully, with the DDFI3 bikes a TPS reset cannot make things worse as it isn't like the old bikes where you could set it incorrectly. TPS resets are not required unless you are swapping ECMs, changes to the exhaust will not affect it. The TPS reset really only needs to be done if you are troubleshooting a running issue, but it is quick and easy to do so you can reset it as you desire. For your running issues I recommend you either remap your stock ECM or get a Race ECM from Erik Buell Racing. A TPS reset cannot fix it unless your TPS value was way off. | ||

Ok Thanks, Im going to get a race ECM. | ||

Froggy,where is the XB love,man!!! Alas it seems there is none.  | ||
| Froggy |
Its there, just not as much as it used to be. Hitting that car knocked some scene into me. | ||
| Brightbuell |
Your not riding ax XB any more Froggy? | ||
| Froggy |
Actually I put 1500 miles on mine since getting it back to road worthy about a month ago, and my 1125's haven't moved an inch in 3 weeks. I have been doing nothing but the XB and Blast. I am saving the rubber on my 1125R for the homecoming trip. | ||
| Skinstains |
Frogman...you are the effin' man !!! That being said all you waterlogged turncoats have your own spot. Go there ! I gotta bring that future to the present one day Froggy, when's good to call you ? . | ||
| Froggy |
Skin, call anytime. (914) 51-BUELL. I will be at homecoming, I am always around | ||
