Thunder-Max Updates
I was beginning to regret getting rid of my PowerCommander and buying a Thunder-Max AutoTuner. No matter what I did, my bike would pop like crazy on every decel,in additionto being verysluggish to start when the bike was hot. I checked out Zipper's website to see if there were any updates. Sure enough, there was a firmware and software update, along with new maps. I had been using map #352, and noticed that #369 was an updated map for my bike's configuration. I loaded the new map, along with the software and firmware upgrades, and bang, new bike! Just came back from a 3 hour ride, and 99% of the decel popping is gone, and now the bike fires right up even when it's hot. If you have a Thunder-Max, you might want to check out the website for the upgrades. I'm glad I did.

RE: Thunder-Max Updates
That's very cool.... I too, have just ordered the TM setup.. I thought I read on this forum that you could demo the software to see the available maps. I downloaded the software but it asks for an activation code. I have an '07 RKC and I'm going with V&H Big Shot Duals and the TM A/C (looks like Ness Big Sucker). Could you tell me if there is a base map like that? Thanks

Yes, there is a map for your RKC. Since you've bought a TM, I'll PM you the activation code so you can take a look.

RE: Thunder-Max Updates
I could not be happier with the T-Max auto tune set-up. The install was CAKE and my bike just flat-out ROCKS now. It's getting better and better each time I ride (I didn't think that was even possible since the bike is already pulling so much harder than the HD download for the 95" upgrade)
For those of you who might be on the fenceregarding this product...don't be. I'm actually looking forward to our changing seasons here in the Pacific Northwest. The02 sensors working in conjunction with the many out-side temp changes (as well as humidity changes)should keep the bike running cooler as well as running stronger.
I am one happy customer!
Cheers to Zipper's performance and their T-Max system.
