Hate to be so off-topic, but being that there is in-depth ECU "re-programming" of sorts being done here- Is there any access/capabilities to remove the nonsense 110MPH speed limiter that came from the factory?
Throwing away ~$400 for simply being able to access the engine's true output potential(that's already there to begin with) is not something I've been able to wrap my head around
It's almost as if despite owning the bike outright, you're somehow still in "trial-mode" and have to pay for the full version to unlock all the features
I think I can understand if you've hit a plateau in the powerband and absolutely NEED physical engine bolt-on upgrades in order to make more power, for obvious reasons.
In my humble opinion, the Guhl flash is a very expensive way to get your bike to hit the top speed the engine was made able to deliver, not any more than that. For comparison, I'd feel so much happier/satisfied getting cams/intake/exhaust done to a car even if I have to pay a shop for the labor intensiveness of the job + parts, because I know that's ~5Hrs. of someone's effort & sweat to get the job done. The ECU flash on the other hand, can't be much more complicated than plugging it in to a PC and clicking a few buttons and slapping a sticker on it.
I guess I'm really just complaining at the lack of options for removal of the stupid limiter.
