ECU sent in packaging FTW!

LOL the Ohlins damper box was smaller/lighter than the excessive Canada Post box I was going to use :P

Huge thumbs up and mine isn't even finished yet.... Anthony has been in contact since he started working on it by e-mail, fixed and invoice mixup and keeping records of everything on my bike.... and still keeping his service commitment to me and other customers even though my riding season is done for another 4-5 months.

Just got home. Found my ECU which was shipped Friday from the east coast sitting at my door. Took it out for a quick cruise around the block. . .

Which quickly turned into a drive around the city.

I should have about 1000 miles of ride time with the flash by Saturday, and ill do a full review this weekend.

Until then, all I have to say is


Bike has gone full retard.


WOT is

With a side of


And after the ride I was like

Nailed it^.



Take that bitch out on the track and REALLY feel what it can do... It's a whole new machine after that flash.

I got a used one piece leather suit on saturday. (Also got to wear that for the first time tonight. Makes me feel like speed racer. lmao)

I need to get my suspension set up properly, get a spare set of rims for some Non Commuter tires, and a little more sporty seat time instead of the 1500 miles of straight freeway a week im doing and im gonna start getting on the track. Hopefully in the spring.

Mine should be getting to Ant today and should arrive back to me by this weekend so I can enjoy this 70° ATL weather! :-O In addition to the ECU, I'll be receiving a BMC Street filter and some new plugs. STOKED! Anthony is "that nigga!" The flash should speak for itself. Anticipating this box being on my doorstep too much!

Sent while riding my R6. o_O

All this talk of the ECU flash makes me sad owning a 2012. In the next week or so I'll be sending it back to Anthony to see if these flash tune updates have done anything to flash the 2012's.

Anthony, if it doesn't work now you can hold onto it for a month or 2 for testing periodically and what not. Snow will be falling soon anyway...

I would like to say f it and get an ECU off ebay but as of right now i need to save my $ for a new helmet... which will more then likely be a Nexx from Bauce Racing

Long story short, it sounds so damn good I ended riding around for over an hour. When I get home my wife is PISSED. She said if I catch the flu she's coming down to Jersey to kick your ass, but she's a tiny little 5 foot thing so I wouldn't worry too much. lol.

So, since she's already upset, what should I get next, hmmm?

Send her my apology bro!!! I do the same shit and it's supposed to be a 15 minute ride, then the bike and I feel good, and I've ridden through 3 states and an hour later, etc.

I highly value the personal touch and attention to detail (such as, asking for my specific td date so you could get it to me in time), so the customer service aspect/purchase experience was top notch, but I think everyone here has figured this out....:

As for the damper itself:
I really like it for a rotary style (can't compare it to a linear unit); very easy install and stupid simple adjustments. Also, for someone that is concerned with getting under the tank often (as I am) this is a quality option. I swap front tank covers for track days in order to install my ETI tank sliders w/o having to compromise my clean covers that when the bike is on street duty..Yes, for the sake of vanity... I do live in LA after all...

I must admit, that I've only had 1 track day with the unit and minimal street hours, so a more in depth review may be in order. With that said, I could probably give some of my thoughts.

I've been told a few times that I should not really feel a damper until the moment I need it so I initially decided to set the unit to have a low input because I didn't want to work harder to push my bars. Since I have a decent baseline setting, I also didn't want to feel something different on the bike, when say, gunning it out of a turn or running up on a high speed bank (when the front tends to get lighter) but I did feel a difference - a better one. After the install, I quick went out for a quick romp and running over cracks when on the gas I didn't notice the quick twitch I'd normally get when settling back down, if I did, it was less pronounced.

On the track (and I'm not that fast yet), it gave me a bit more confidence to hit it out of a turn and not worry soo much about the front getting light and wiggling around when settling down (if that makes sense). I've never really had issues with slappers but I've had slight wiggles before and those are still no fun at all and I figure it's a relatively cheap insurance policy.

I have to admit though, I wasn't really a huge believer in dampers until later that track weekend when a fellow member almost had a high-side (seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuAYc...feature=g-user) but saved it, also using this very damper. When I asked him if he felt that the damper help at all, he simply replied "absolutely!"....I was sold, after being sold...

I'm glad you like the GPR bro!! I was happy with it after riding my bike with one for a bit after we swapped it off the B bike. It was pretty mega! AND they have a super sale right now on em as well!

Thanks bro!!! I'll keep my eye on it for you. I lost a day last night to sleeping from the time I walked into my house till this morning. I even put a post-it on the wall over the couch to be woken up if possible at 10:25 PM. My GF said I was BEYOND belligerent when she tried multiple times to wake me.

We have an actual sale coming up on the NEXX's within a week bro.

And no worries bro. I'll try and find a deal on one. I got a guy not too far from me I got a tank from for a STEAL bro. Sergio is his name, we've done a forum ride together. HELLA nice dude and broke me off a mega deal on yet another gas tank for the 08. MUST STOP CRASHING BIKE!!!!
