So is this for real or an early April Fools joke? I’ve got a free weekend and tons of new snow waiting. Think I’m riding no matter what
Don’t ride your 18 or 19!!

If you have the dealer flash the new update you both will lose your custom tunes.

I want to see the flameing alpha though :face-icon-small-hap the only thing more flamboyent on them than the colour scheme
What strikes me odd is if cat says its a personal injury hazard, why is that an issue with high idle? Sled a couple hundred rpm higher idle isnt going to have the sled take off on you when not on it. Makes more sense they say one thing and they actually fvcked up and pulled a Volkswagon and are trying to fix the ecm programming before it becomes a lawsuit. Or richen it up because there are motor failures and it sips oil...
Ya the oil thing is a problem with me. Adding oil to the gas tank...
Adding about 4 to 6 oz a tank brings it back to 40 to 1
haven't seen or heard of many with definitive oil issues. link it more info?
No link I'm just an old school tuner I know that 40 to 1 is a really safe place
Called my dealer this afternoon. The new reflash is available from cat. Going to stop by and get my 18’ flashed in the morning. If you have a silber or precision flash the new cat flash I believe wipes your ECU clean and then puts the new flash in. So be prepared to lose whatever flash is in your ECU if you have this done. I’m not flashing my Silber Turbo alpha, just me stock 18’.
funny...
but in all seriousness, what led to this ECU update? Was it simply high idle after a big climb or are they acknowledging some panels melting due to heat? changing the oil mix?
It does seem that 40 to 1 or even higher is pretty low to keep a high performance motor lubed but not an engineer.
Do they release a list of exactly what they do to the ECU?

We used to use steam power too, should we go back to that? we used to get 2mpg should we go back to that? we used to have to carry a case of spark plugs should we go back to that lol
he's old school and like his fumes
well they cant alter the fuel or oil ration without sending engine for EPA testing again at great cost
