    Just going to jack this thread a wee bit... with a quick question.

    Does the race ecu change the display interface when activated or can all the normal operations still be used? eg. You dont loose the speedo or something stupid like that eh?

    So they can be tuned better for more power than a pc3?

    From what I've read and what NinjaBoy has said they can be used on the road, there are other features that can be tuned on and off like rpm limiter for pit road etc.
    Basically the options are a lot greater with the race ecu.
    Once I get a coms cable I'll be able to comment more.

    Hey man if you want to offload it I'm willing to give it a go and fix it, so if you want to sell it let me know and I'll buy it off you.

    Cheers

    You could try Two Smoker.
    He has the race ecu and an interface cable and no longer races the bike.
    When last we spoke he was returning his bike to std and putting it back on the road. Things change, but it's worth a try.
    He doesn't come on KB much at all now. PM me if you would like his cell phone number.

    How about you let me dissect it and build two new ones after having a look inside the magic part of it?

    John has my cable right now so I would be reading off the same cable. Why does your one have the plug chopped off ?

    If you mean ECU AND ECU tuning cable then Yes. I also know where Chris' other bike ended up and I believe it also has a Race ECU based upon the existence of the pig tail cable required for the Race ECU.
