Lionsm.. I talked to Pete at Zipper and he told me this unit will not work. I am in the process of getting one ordered. Need to get funds right. I have removed the unit from the bike Erased all software and such off my computer and I am going to start with all new everything and see if it is as easy as they say. And by the way Pete at Zippers is a very helpful guy. He made me feel better about being able to talk to a real person.

It is easy, dont worry. I got a tmax from frank at dragos over the summer...already had the map loaded. Followed directions and had no problems. The dude earlier in the thread who said ull the light fuse is right. When u end up dickin with the software for a while that is a must. Good luck... this is a really nice tuner and ot works, just get familiar with the auto tune and reading and writing learned points

I don't know where you ordered from, but I sure hope you checked with Frank from Dragos first, I wasn't able to beat his price or service anywhere.
