Tuning, mapping in Northants / Bucks

08-03-2016, 08:26 PM

helloooo chaps, just settling in with my 696 11 plate. She's a totally new beast for me as my previous rides have been pre 2000... so much better!! however all this about ECU's, mapping, tuning up and general customisation is tickling my widget, as I can't help thinking that the bike could be set up better for the way i ride.

Is there somebody here that could please steer me in the right direction in the Northants / Bucks area (don't mind travelling a bit further if needed) so I can get the bike and myself geared up a bit better? It's all very new to me, I'm having a sift through threads and vids online to see what I can learn but I always prefer the old fashioned way of show and tell .

Also was having a think about the exhaust system... everything on the bike is standard but i've seen a thread here and there that suggests upgrading to termi's or a zard system could help the power a bit. and the sound. lol.

Also if there's anyone in my area that's up for a meet and greet I'd love to hear from you!

Go see Dave Wood at DW Racing in Aylesbury, he can re-write stock ecu maps on his dyno. He did my 1000DS and made cracking job of it. My Multistrada will be heading there soon too

Not Northants or Bucks but I would (and did) take my bike to Chris at CJS Racing near Bristol because he's the best.

Another vote here for DWR in Aylesbury. A very knowledgable fellow.

I used BSD performance at Peterborough for my 696 remap, good service and a great result.
