| | Posted : 20 Aug 2021 - 03:40 Post title : 2012 Storm Tune | | | Hey Guys i apologize in advance as i bet every man and his dog does this but im struggling to find a tune for my 2012 storm no cat K&n filter short TORS im currently using the SLCHARGER REV 2 but find it shoots me forward when letting off the throttle when going slow around town and through slow corners {which scares the shit out of me} as the engine seems to keep going and no its not stuck or sticking throttle etc .Im wondering if it gets better with time ? Ive gone back to the standard triumph tune because the shooting forward is bad news, but if anyone has a fix or a good tune can you please help this poor kiwi boys

Also he has his original tune in the repository as well, maybe try switching to that tune and see if the problems persists

Hog slayers, Cat removed, K&N and the seat piece removed. will post TQ charts when I get it back.

I am hoping to to have it by the end of this week. They also agreed that I coulddo a Tea Room episode with walk through and chat with the main owners. So I am looking forward to it. Really interested to see how they will do with the delivery.

| | Posted : 08 Jul 2022 - 21:09 Post title : Re: 2012 Storm Tune (Re: beamer326) | | | Sorry but I have few basic questions:
- do you have a Power Commander V in your bike? Is it mandatory for dynamometer? A guy here is NY asked me 900 to install a PCV and put bike in a dynojet
- What mod do you suggest for same configuration.. storm hogslayers, British Customs kn air filter, decat.
Thank you.

| | Posted : 08 Jul 2022 - 22:37 Post title : Re: 2012 Storm Tune (Re: Fmansur) | | | NOpe, They saved me from having to buy a Power Commander. Here is the Email they initally sent me.
"Scott,
We're happy to help! There's no need for a Power Commander on these bikes, as we can do all of the tuning directly through the stock ECU.
The ECU flash and custom tuning on the dyno for these bikes is $499.99 and takes a couple of days. The initial read process on the ECU is very slow, so simply let us know when you'd like to drop off the bike and leave it with us and we'll be able to get it perfectly dialed in for you! - Nate."
I hope that helps. Saves you $$ from buying stuff you do not need.

| | Posted : 09 Jul 2022 - 06:30 Post title : Re: 2012 Storm Tune (Re: beamer326) | | | They are probably using TuneEcu to do the tuning. Reading the ECU normally takes 20 - 30 minutes and a dyno tune about 4-6 hours.

Very interesting Mine is a 1600 with forans cat delete and opened air box with the seat duct removed.
And like Lee said, the Tuner used Tune ECU and it took about 4 - 5 hours I am very happy with it
