What sets our service apart from others and why we have such a solid reputation in this industry is that we do all of our mapping and tuning in house. This includes but is not limited to: Throttle mapping, torque curve mapping, ignition mapping, fuel mapping, engine braking strategies and many other aspects of the ECU. This is the same mapping that has led our team and sponsored riders to multiple race wins and championships!
This is a mail-in service. You send us your ECU and we reflash it to your custom specifications. We are offering a service we feel is superior to any of our competitors and with unparalleled support. We will make sure that every ECU is right for each rider. This is the same ECU flash we use on our championship-winning YZF-R1 race bikes. We can return the ECU to stock if needed, free of charge.
We will give your bike an additional 15-18 rear wheel horsepower and remove all throttle and timing restrictions on the bike from the factory that US model YZF-R1 models have. This does not impact reliability.
Included features:
Remove all throttle based restrictions
Fully revised Power Modes
Remove all speed and gear based restrictions
Optimize ignition timing for 91+ octane pump fuel
Fully customized fuel mapping
Customized race throttle maps for Power Mode 1-4
Customized engine braking strategies
Ability to load Power Commander maps directly onto your ECU
Adjustable radiator fan temps for more efficient cooling
Adjustable rev limiter
Disable closed loop mode
Adjustable velocity stack opening point
Disabling the factory AIS (smog) system
Disabled EXUP & error recall
Disabled fuel injector cut
Disabled steering damper (removes code for aftermarket units)
Our 2015-18 YZF-R1 ECU Flash features 4 custom full power throttle and ignition maps integrated into Power modes 1-4. This is not to be confused with presets A,B,C,D.
PWR 1 features a very aggressive, quick turn throttle feel. PWR 2 is a bit more linear in how it reacts and has less sensitivity than PWR 1. Many racers and track day users prefer this throttle map. PWR 3 Is most linear and least sensitive of the full power modes, and is great for a rider who prefers a very linear throttle. PWR 4 Is the 'softest' and most user-friendly of the power modes, for those looking for the least initial throttle torque, this is the best option.
Bear in mind that each mode makes the same power, so you have the ability pick the throttle map that best suits your riding style, or the type of riding you are doing.
Block off plates are suggested.
More info:
We have preconfigured ECU images that have been fully dyno and track tested and will work great for your bike, or we can make optimal setting recommendations for your own customized image.
Your ECU is located on the left hand (clutch) side of the bike. It is underneath the triangular panel below the fuel tank. Simply disconnect the two wire harness connectors and pop the ECU from its mounting bracket.
We will ship outside of the continental US, but at an additional charge.
Each ECU is return shipped with $200 in insurance. If you require more, please contact us after your purchase.
After your purchase is completed, you will receive a confirmation via email that includes a questionnaire regarding your motorcycle and your preferences on our flash settings, as well as the address you'll send the ECU to.
See our ECU flashing FAQ HERE for more information.
NOTE: In the above dyno chart, RunFile 32 is a stock ECU with full exhaust. RunFile 45 is our flash and a full exhaust. RunFile 56 is a full exhaust+race fuel+our flash (with revised fuel mapping)
This should be the first thing you do to your R1! Wow is all I can say..feels like a whole new bike, this thing is crazy fast.
Got this done with the FTECU auto blipper kit and I absolutely love the performance and power my R1 has now. It is a lot faster and I like the different power modes.
Bike: New R1S
They were very fast. Turnaround was great. The bike is SO MUCH MORE POWERFUL. My God i had no idea all that power could come from a flash! WOW.
As everyone states, Yes, there is an immense difference in power vs stock. It’s night and day down low, where stock was a bit disappointing until you got the revs up there. I have a ’99 R1 as well, and that bike had much more low-end torque, while the 2015 of course had more power at high RPMs. Now the Flash makes the bike really come alive down low, no more disappointment there, and high RPMs are straight up frightening. Serious warning here, that this is in fact a race tune that will completely change the feel of the bike from a civilized and safe machine to a race spec superbike that you had better know how to handle! The flash tune is absolutely amazing for its intended purpose, PERFECT! But be warned, it is not at all a civilized machine anymore, and the difference from stock may be much more than you were expecting, and too intense for some riders
