hello all...my names Mart i'm 44, been riding bikes since i was 9.. just picked up a 10 plate Thunder grey 1 with quite a few bits already added so it just needs a de-cat and the PC5 swapping for a bazzaz.."already got the zafm and prefer them over PC's"..

I thought that when I got mine new back in march 2010, I bought a cancelled order bike as there was a 4 month wait.

Welcome to the gang Mart. I too ride a Thunder Grey and I too had my 4 main trim bits flattened and sprayed the black pearl colour. It looks Brillant now and how it should've been for a quality machine/brand IMO ...rather than that cheap recycled egg carton stuff that they all come with anyway :wink-new:

cheers all..... so how much does an ECU reflash cost then at Hilltop.. out of interest ..??

 

[ekdg]

The ref lash is £360 but the bike is a lot smother and over 200rwhp and the TC is set up better and cuts in smoother if you search on the site you will see others who have had it done.

 

[mart]

cheers for that mate... had a search thru last night and found it...

lash.!!......you say... would'nt care to elaborate on that a little more would u...??

Sorry my error at 3 am its reflash its this bloody mac correcting things, hilltop are based in earl stilton in leicestershire near to mallory park, basically geoff plugs into the ECU and maps the bike on a dyne so the fuelling is perfect he can also adjust other settings such as TC this makes it smother when activated and the anti wheelie is also better.
