2010 TE250 New Cam & Ecu ReFlash WOW!

!

g'day budweiserfrogie i was wondering if you could tell me the part number of the new cam that was put in the bike. i also just got the leo-vince silencer and ecu combo for my bike which made a small difference to the bottom end but a big difference to the mid-top end.
cheers

Is there an official factory recall on the ECU for a reflash? I need to get one if there is.

Somebody needs to find out more about this. Is it something that is coming to America??

If you received a written recall, please post it here. I am also VERY interested by this. (... as I am a tad disapointed with my new purchase).

Thanks in advance.

Budweiserfrogie is in Ireland and they got bikes sooner in Europe. Maybe the recall is progressing like the distribution. Call your dealer is the best advice, or the distributor, Ross Rocher.

I spoke with my dealer this today and he's heard about it but no specifics yet in writing.
Hopefully I'll be sending my bike back to him for a fix soon.

Do you seriously think we 2-strokers are gonna take that? What kind of 2smoke are you riding? You want low end torque and luggability you need to ride a modern smoker!!! Just kiddin' ya. Glad to hear your boat anchor thumper is finally making 2smoke power!

I am not the Dist, just a humble dealer.

I have not heard anything about a cam update. Sorry

The cam change is on a limited number of early production bikes to update the decompressor mech to the same as later production bikes.

With regards the reflash, I need to speak to Buds dealer to find out what was fitted as although there is a software update due, we don't have the reflash disc yet to actually upgrade the bikes... He may have a Leo system with new ECU which has the same bottom end improvements.

I find this very interesting as well. My bike is still (1month +) at the dealer on the cam holder bolt stripping out issue I had. I'll have to ask them about this cam as well. I'd welcome more low end torque for sure.

Doug

To my knowledge the cam is the same profile as the original, the change on Buds bike is due to the Leo Vinci exhaust and the matching ECU. There will be an update to the standard ECU which will improve the bottom end but the Leo pipe makes a great difference all the way thru the rev range.


Dave

My apologies, I spoke with the dealer for Ireland and he advised the Leo had been fitted - maybe he has you confused with another customer.

The replacement cam is definitely the same profile and we do not have the tooling to reflash the ECU currently so I can't explain why your bike feels so much better, nice to hear you're happy with it though!

Cheers...Dave

Perhaps the "reflash" is just a stock ECU that has been tweaked with an IBeat?

That would perhaps explain it, if the new ECU has been fitted then you would notice a considerable improvement off the bottom. When you get the pipe on it should be better still!

I'll talk to Turk again and get him to clarify...

Cheers...Dave

how much is the pipe/ecu combo??? anyone??

In the UK around £700 inc taxes... That's for the Leo silencer plus the remapped ECU to match.


Dave

I have the Leo Silencer/ECU combo on my bike and have not taken the time to write about it.

Yes this ECU fixes the off idle hesitation. It smooths the bike out and pulls stronger. I will soon get to compare it to another TXC and give more detail but it definitely improves the bike. It does not explode off the bottom on my bike but it does pull a gear much better. I noticed this last week in a tight Hare Scramble that I could actually pull areas where I would be on the clutch or down shifting. I have tried the Leo ECU with the stock exhaust as well and the hesitation is still gone.

I wonder if I can just buy the re-mapped ECU? I called the Husky customer support hotline today and they just told me to return the bike to the dealer. They didn't offer any info on a re-flash in the works.
