I have one and have downloaded a map from the T595 website as I have a K&N,
A TOR can and some headwork done. I love the ability to check my fan,fuel
pump,stepper motor,etc. read codes, and I have a new dyno business so will
be playing with the bike to really get familiar with all the aspects of the
Tuneboy.
I met Wayne when I was racing in Aus and was impressed with his knowledge
and engineering skills.
If you have changed your bike at all I recommend it. The stock tunes all
seem to have a midrange dip where they are lean.Jim.

>b) You want to be able to switch exhaust cans on a regular basis
