Luckily this is one of those nice, family oriented boards! GL with your "pulled sensor" racing bud. I'll be looking for logo on the next set of winning bikes during track events.... "powered by pulling sensors" "Abstract Racing....where racing is not the goal in the practical" and the finale "Misinterpreted Shop Manual Performance!"(2busa @ Jan. 21 2007,21:48) OK, I'm going to lay it out another way. We are one family, the bike world. The computer bike is a wild complex animal. That's what you're trying to figure out. The controversy since 1999 about how the bike works and how to tune it has been 10 months of shock for me. I've learned the limit of the ECM owning the 13.5. The tune is in the digital backups. The GPS is better off unplugged if you go racing. I hope this explains the simplicity of the bike. There is no magic resistor, no clutch mod, just the exact fact of what the bike will do to any coded sensor. The locked shift 6 is a code for the speed sensor. The bike is self diagnosing. The theory of the shifter voltage values only explains the complex roads of the ECU/Sensor functions you're discussing.
The video is my lame attempt (at funny) to describe the simplicity of the computer. I chopped 9 minutes down to whatever you see. I'll fluff the words trying to repeat the resistor is what is used, not the meter, (ohm). I built a few props, flipped the camera on and this is a tribute to the icon of this board and the other guy. You haven't seen the good stuff. They might take it wrong. Hey, it's just a motorcycle we;re talking about...
I was in sheer frustration/shock knowing the cry for the Pcom maps, the clutch mods, the controversy of a 5th map, the seat of the pants difference from the analog signal to the digital signal in the f/safe had a simple explanation...

"creative" aka F-ing WEIRD!!!(Zuki @ Jan. 22 2007,08:42) The video was very creative...lol
This thread keeps getting better each day
At least you see the 'NO' in the middle of that. That's all you need in response.(heavybusa @ Jan. 22 2007,07:42) This is what I see when I open this thread
(2busa @ Jan. 19 2007,10:40) Why the clutch mod will do nothing
The manual does not tell you the bike will be lighter with billet, carbon fiber, gundrilled bolts; faster or quicker with sprocket change; or handle better with stiffer fork springs either, but WTF does that mean? Means the Manual is the same compromise of power vs. economy vs. emissions as all other automotive products.(2busa @ Jan. 22 2007,12:50) The manual does not tell you if you install a tre or resistor in one of the 3 wires, the computer is going to react this way to a 5th map or you have the same ability to select 400rpm from a wire.
If you follow the abstract, no wire can be open (disconnected), shorted to ground, or have a specific value (of that wire straight to the sensor) reading another value = tre/resistor, (restricting the correct reading at the sensor body) .
Pull the sensor connector. Read that value from each wire down to the sensor. Now install the tre/resistor in line. Take your ohm meter, and read the new values at the 3 wires. If the 3 values do not add up because the aftermarket was installed, does not that one step (install the tre/270ohm) set the code? Book says; Open-short-wrong (book) values (at that wire) will throw the code 6fixed.
If the book says you will receive the industry standard for the GPS; a locked 6... How do you come up thinking to tell the computer to run a 5th? If running a 5th is possible then the theory (what your abstract follows, not the book's abstract) says, you can pick and choose a 400rpm wire as much as you can hold 186 open with/out the extra fat 6 map to boost you past 186. It does not follow the logic of the book.
Is that how flexible and workable a computer is? Please explain.
That IS exactly what he is saying. As well, from another thread, the use of a Power Commander or other tuning tool is garbage cause the ECM is so smart it automatically compensates for changes to the air intake/exhaust or power production of the engine. He has very little techincal understanding of electronics, computer applications in fuel injected engine management etc.. But in his abstract, he is the one-upper!(cougar694u @ Jan. 22 2007,13:25) Is this what you're saying, "If you unplug the GPS sensor harness the following will be enabled:
A) A fatter fuel trim
2) Factory rev limiter of 10,900 RPM
III) MPH >= 187
Thus, eliminating the need for a TRE"
Is that what you're saying?
