Are the flashes customized or do they have a set profile for CB1100's?
Beside removing the top speed limit, what are the other benefits?
If the exhaust has been modified, is that taken into account?
How much does Guhl Motors charge?
No one has brought Don a stock or modified CB yet. The flash will take away the speed limiter, lower gear timing retard. I had the stock PC5 map flashed into mine and I'm running a full Yoshi and it runs great with no flat spots. Ridem32 had his flashed with just the restrictions removed. The cost is 375.00
Honda could have easily tuned the engine for 100+ hp. I understand their reasoning for keeping things mellow and emphasizing excellent torque that starts at the low end.
Don says an ECU reflash will unleash the inherent power in the engine. What exactly did Honda do to tame the beast (besides the speed limiter)? Did they retard or delay timing in just the lower gears? Didn't they want to emulate some of the engine vibrations of the old CB750s to give it some "character"? How did they do that? Timing?
