I'll take one year in Mexico city and I need to know if is necessary any kind of ECM setup to my Buell 12Ss. Today it has a Florida setup. It means that works with pressure at sea level. Mexico City is 7400 feet above sea level.

If the bike is stock, you'll be fine. The ECM can adjust for altitude changes such as that.

However if there are performance parts installed such as a free flowing exhaust and/or air filter then, most likely, the ECM would have to be reprogrammed accordingly by someone who knows what they are doing.

The bike is stock with no additional accessories. My concern regarding this issue is because local Buell Dealer at Mexico city told me that I must setup fuel ignition to avoid any problem. So if there is no problem to use it at 7400 feet without any special regulation, I'll enjoy it. Thanks for your reply.
