i am thinking of trying data logging. how hard is this and are there any helpful hints that i should know about. | ||

ECM spy and I think the Megalog viewer smaller is better, you will be carrying a laptop with you while you ride so a good pak and cable routing is important the later X1 data sockets are under the seat | ||

ok thanks so just click on data logging and it will take care of itself or what. i just dont want to do anything wrong | ||

yep, just click datalog and go for a 30min run trying many gear/throttle combinations. run the log with megalog viewer when you get back. Burn your adjusted maps and do another run to see if its been succesfull you'll need to do this 5 or 6 times until megalog hardly makes any changes or the changes are very small, say a point or two either way. Once you are confident in using megalog then you can tweek your maps manually by reading the graphs in megalog and keeping an eye on throttle position and revs while riding to see exactly where you need adjustment. Remember to save your origional maps and eprom just in case it goes belly up. Make sure the laptop battery is fully charged and things like screensaver and auto shutdown are turned off. Try www.ecmspy.com for usefull info and there is a massive thread on http://www.buelletinboard.com/forums/forumdisplay. php?20-Technical-and-Performance | ||

forgot to add, you will be working on your rear map, you will need to copy and paste it into the front map and add 3 to 5 points across the whole map for the front cylinder. | ||

Do the front and rear have the same volumetric efficiency v's speed characteristics then Martin? | ||

If you are using Vista or 7 you need to sort the write permissions out for the megalog directory in the ECMSpy parent directory... | ||
| 01x1buell |
not trying to sound dumb here.. i do not know what you measn by that.. i am using 7. | ||
| Dynosaur |
Apologies, I was meaning Windows Vista or Windows 7. | ||
| 01x1buell |
ohh i knew that what i was saying is that i dont understand ( you need to sort the write permissions out for the megalog directory in the ECMSpy parent directory... ) | ||
| Dynosaur |
You need someone that knows about computers, which is not me. As I understand it, Vista and 7 stop you from writing to the program files > ECMSpy > megalog directory as a default, you need to change the permissions. | ||

"forgot to add, you will be working on your rear map, you will need to copy and paste it into the front map and add 3 to 5 points across the whole map for the front cylinder." Snowbees are you sure of this 4 Buell X1? the original ECM have value most different in rear and front map's! | ||
| Dynosaur |
I am with you on that one... | ||
| Snowbees |
all i know is that it worked for me, i just followed a tunning guide and various posts on the subject. so i'm no expert. my plugs are the same color ,( a bit on the lean side maybe) and i have a stable 100% afv. | ||
| Andreax1 |
do you have an X1 or one XB? how much Km have you do? it's no a police interrogation, sorry but my english is really bad  | ||
| Snowbees |

| Andreax1 |

| 01x1buell |
sweet thank you that worked... now i just have to find out why my laptop shuts of during the ride.... thanks froggy!!!!!!! | ||

Click the start button, in the search box type in "power", one of the results that will come up is Power Options. Pick that. On the new window that will come up, click Change Plan Settings. The window will change to look like below. Set sleep to never, then click the advanced button, another small window will pop up, go to power buttons and lid, there should be a choice (which I don't have on a desktop), that will let you change your lid closing setting to "do nothing".  There *may* be a faster way to do this, but I don't have a laptop to experiment on. | ||
