TE510 ECU 09 Spec upgrade.

I have a mate who lives up there,included in his massive collection of bikes is a 450 Yamaha, talks about the Creb a bit, BTW you better mention the Saltys in that water crossing.Might be why the crowd has gathered.

They Crocs are hungry this time of year.
Only lost one guy this trip.LOL

Beautiful scenery. Get muddy, get clean and wet, then get dusty. The trifecta.

I love the washed down stream pic..good thing he got the yellow Zuki and not blue one

I think I see some "Sheilas" in the group of riders.!!

Hell... I think I see someone who came prepared (the guy holding the bark buster in the water) with a orange life jacket LOL!!

Always a few "sheila's" & some women as well.

Any further news update on this patch, very curious for my own 08 TE510

Hi Coffee,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, I have been away with work. I was incorrect about the interface cable, I have now been told by the dealer that the "09 ECU upgrade kit " does not require a cable change but rather the "kit" comes in the form of a USB key with the new fuel map & a disc with the software upgrade to allow IBEAT to change the mapping. I believe that this fuel map is "set" & not programmable, I couldn't get a part # of the USB key from them, as yet.!

What a huge difference it has made to the bike, easier to start, less stalling, cleaner & crisper running with NO loss of power, much better fuel economy & an awesomely clean pipe. I am running standard gearing & last ride covered 110klm & topped up with only 6 ltrs of fuel leaving 1.2 ltr in the tank after 110klm awesome! There have been local reports of 130klm/tank on the new settings which is a relief to the 85 klm I was getting out of a full tank, I just might have to put a hold on the IMS tank now. I would strongly advise anyone who has an early 08 TE to contact your dealers & ask for the upgrade, I just hope it is available in the States for you all. I can't see why it would not be.

Seems like AUSKY & some of us recieved premature info,Some of the dealers thought it was 09. the 09 spec isn`t avail yet, it`s vsn2 08, apparently the later vin bikes have it already, here`s what i was told directly


7 dealers in the country can update the software............
Vsn 1, early bikes had the FB1 & TPS bulletin for change
Vsn 2, Software upload - cleans the midrange, top end & economy.
if your local guys don`t have it, send the ECU to one that does, they`ll put it in a bike & upload, then when it comes back you`ll just need to hook up to normal iBEAT & re-set the TPS to your bike. The FB will be unchanged.

The 09 software will be programmable, not a switch as some think, it will be via the ECU & software, possible it will only remain in-house with importer to prevent larry leadfoots changing the curves & putting Husky`s up there with CRF Valve failures. Won`t be avail for some time yet.
Or you could just order an 09 ECU, but the horsepower & economy against the 08 is unknown at this stage (none in the country for testing yet)

My bike is now getting 75klms from just under 4 lts with vsn1, so 100+kms is easy, that`s with 14/50 gearing riding single track, i`m going to put vsn2 in because it apparently gives more low end response. Here`s my pipe after 75kms of ST

How good are those pics AUSKY

Do you know what qualifies as a later Vin?

+1 (and bump into 2009)

i just had mine updated from paul feeny direct so i'll keep you updated on how mine runs

Anyway of knowing if you dont have ibeat?

If you have a regular dealer & he has saved the log info he can view & let you know
