It ran so poorly that I ended up putting the original injectors back in. I was hoping for it to run a little richer but it was way lean. A remap is in the future for my bike and I will give the 09s another try at that time. Hope this helps anyone that wanted to give it a try.   Ds_tiger Posted on Friday, April 17, 2009 - 05:53 pm:        Thanks for man-ing up and trying it and telling the tale!   Luisemilio25r Posted on Friday, April 17, 2009 - 06:04 pm:        I know!! Thanks for trying!   Fresnobuell Posted on Friday, April 17, 2009 - 06:30 pm:        +1 chevy. thanks for the report.   Rockstarblast1 Posted on Friday, April 17, 2009 - 09:05 pm:        but yet sooo many threads bashing the 08's and there "injectors" for one.... good find man thanks   Skylerxb12r Posted on Friday, April 17, 2009 - 09:38 pm:        Just curious Chevy, How did you determine that the bike was running lean? Wideband, AFV change, or just seat of the pants? Thanks for being brave enough to try! I have been kicking the idea around for a while. On a related note, does anyone know if the race teams are using the 08 or 09 injectors? Obviously the 09 bikes are using the new version but i wonder if the 08's have been retrofitted since they are mapping anyway.   Chevycummins Posted on Monday, April 20, 2009 - 06:58 am:        I've got a wideband monitor. The bike only ran like crap at under 1/2 throttle. The wideband would show 16.5ish while accelerating and it would bog out and not go. Over 1/2 throttle is still seemed to run ok. The idle was a little more rough also. I'll try it again later with some programming.   Buellsrule Posted on Monday, April 20, 2009 - 08:59 am:        Email me and I'll help you get the perfect tune for your bike.

If the injectors are different, then what they need to be told by the computer is going to be different as well. Those are my thoughts, anyways. I would think that with the changed position of the O2 sensors in the 09's that an '08 with '09 injectors and '09 map would still not run all that well.   Fresnobuell Posted on Monday, April 20, 2009 - 11:36 am:        I thought that the O2 change was really a just give them a break from the heat by moving them farther downstream.
