Hi everyone. Andy from Yateley, Hampshire here.

Just been out for a bit of a chilly ride following my recall updates (ECU fuelling fix and headlight gubbins). Got to say it feels like new bike in STD mode now i've had the ECU update! Roll on warmer weather.

Cheers

Welcome !
Could you please tell me how many miles you had done before the remap and what differences are you feeling now on your bike ?

Hi. I'd covered 520 miles (give or take couple) and heard about the remap recall although Yamaha didn't contact me. In STD mode before the remap I found that the engine would 'surge' at fairly low speeds, which was a bit unnerving around roundabouts. The slightest touch on the throttle or small bump in the road and it was a nightmare! So, since the remap the throttle action is super smooth in STD (haven't tried A mode) and the 'surging' has gone! No more worries that it would leap towards the scenery around roundabouts. Its retained that proper get-up-and-go that it had before, just smoother in the first 1/4 twist of the throttle. I'm so glad I had it remapped, its the bike I always wanted it to be.

Hope that helps and feel free to ask if you need any other feedback

Cheers, Andy

And the good news is the ECU flash is covered under warranty. Its made a big difference to mine. Some guys and gals can live with the snatchy throttle but personally I didnt like it. May also be worth asking the dealer if there's any other recalls due as there's a headlight recall too, which I had done the same time. Wiring loom too short by all accounts and I'm sure there's other threads on here about it.

Welcome and a big hello

Think that the snatchy throttle differs from bike to bike mine is just bearable in standard mode and has caught me out twice

 

[Triple Trouble]

All the recalls have been posted on here for a while. Just have a look and u will find them

That is absolutelly true !
On mine, the "snatchyness" was reduced when 1st) i got the slack of the throtle grip and 2nd) i put a high flow aftermarket air filter..
Also, the engine runs smoother as more km i do !
