Mode switch?

Kill some power when riding on wet roads.
True. But I'd take the mode switch over the ZX-14's low power dip any day.(DaCol. @ Sep. 03 2007,00:28)And I though that's what your wrist and brain were for
I think it's a great feature and will be very helpful for people that plan to mod there bikes.
You could have three different computer settings at the flick of a switch.
For the N/A guys mode:
A) Pump Fuel
B) Race Gas
C) Nitrous
For the Turbo guys mode:
A) Pump Fuel low-boost
B) Pump Fuel Water/Alchy Injection
C) Race Gas high-boost
I think it will be a GREAT setup...

I think there may be some ppl thank can use it effectively ie with mods, but the question I have is, like Da Col. said, "What have we been doing on wet roads for 8 years?"

The ability to have 3 different settings is interesting, but won't that mean that if you mod the bike with aftermarket intake and exhaust, you will need to have three custom maps instead of 1, or else not use the lower two?
I kind of did a poor man's detuning in July, when I took my '04 to Mid-Ohio for 2 track days. My prior experience on that track had been disappointing, with that instant throttle response pushing me and that heavy bike through the numerous and often blind turns. So I re-installed my TRE, which slows the bike down a bit, but made it very manageable and enjoyable through the twisties. I had no trouble keeping up with the 600's through the turns.

Yes....you will have to map it for three different tunes. It's no different than what people do now except you have to bring a lap-top and upload a tune everytime you change something or tweak for a race. Now you may able to do it on the fly with the tunes already stored in the ECU depending how the computer is setup.
Hopefully it holds three sep tunes and doesn't just retard the timing/fuel, whatever on the basic map....to cut power....

Maybe there will be a secret trick with the switch like holding the horn button down with the hazards on while turning the switch to make it into a 1500
Well one could only hope.

Got-Busa,
I don't have much technical knowledge but your supposition that the B and C settings may be based on timing/fuel retardation makes sense to me because that's how GenI busa's are speed restricted. If so, wouldn't it also be logical that installing a TRE on a GenII busa would then make settings B and C identical to A?

It would be nice to just have the option. I don't know if I would use it or not.(Rapstar @ Sep. 02 2007,06:10) New mode switch...com'on, whos really gonna use it? and why would you? I'm not buying a busa to tame it.I want 100% performance all the time! but thats me.
Its the beginning of forms of traction control on production bikes

i would like to see what the controlls feel like because if c is 60% power then how sluggish that would feel but i would also like to see what it does to the gas mileage for just cruising
