Attn: Al Lighton, or anyone with experience with the VDSTS/Keyspan combo: I have a '06 Ulysses that I got privately, which had a Drummer pipe and race ECM. It also came with the VDSTS-Standard software (v2.79H, which I just upgraded to the latest v2.81-D) and Keyspan cable/software. I just obtained a stock Uly pipe, and installed it along with the stock ECM, filter and servo cable. Button it all up, start bike, runs like crap, which is what I expected. Install the VDSTS and keyspan software on the laptop, connect the cable to the bike outlet, somehow get things to communicate. Now what? Start with a TPS reset? Thinking that was the case, so hit the TPS reset button, now it runs even worse and won't idle. Also, the damn software program is connecting and reconnecting. Previous owner says he successfully used it when he installed the Drummer. I downloaded the documentation from the technoresearch.com (maker of VDSTS) which includes instructions on doing a TPS reset on a Buell. But the instructions aren't very good, certainly for a newbie like me who has never done this before. And the "user guide" was useless. It just says what all the buttons are for in the software and what the software can do - doesn't tell you how to setup your bike USING the software. I know lots of you out there have. Can any of you lend a paragraph or three and help a poor noob out? The bike isn't rideable like this. Questions: 1. Once I have the connection made and the software is communicating to the ECU/ECM, what do I do then? Start with TPS reset? Bike running or just turned on? 2. For TPS reset - What do I do with the idle adjustment - back it off completely or just where I think it doesn't interfere with the throttle position? Then do a TPS reset (bike still turned off)? Then adjust the idle screw to where I think it should be (try starting bike and get it around the 1050 rpm area), turn off bike and hit TPS reset again? 3. After I think I have done the TPS reset, start the bike and it runs OK (this is a big assumption at this point), do I do anything else with the software (i.e., do I have to reset anything besides TPS)? TIA, Scott aka "Motogeek" moto.geek@yahoo.com (Message edited by Motogeek on September 10, 2006) | ||
