Hi Guys

Have just ordered a set of Razorbacks from Foran and I believe there is a Tuneboy tune for these pipes. As I am in Brisbane is there anyone in town that has this tune that I can take my bike to that can load this tune into the bike for me. Any help with this one would be greatly appreciated.
Failing that can you still purchase the tuneboy programes as I emailed them and got no response.

Thanks Murray

Hi Murray
If you can get a license key off tuneboy ive got the wireless cable etc
to load the tune
They tend to reply a bit quicker if you look like you want to spend money.
However the foran tune on the website is, when compared to the standard tor
tune uninspiring to me. It appears leaner and the ignition timing
appears to be retarded.
My advice if you want to go the tuneboy way is be prepared
to spend the money getting your bike dynoed.
There is a mob down the coast that advertise they will use tuneboy
Don't think that the tunes on the website will be a great solution
on there own.
I've also read foran suggests using the triumph tor tune for your engine size which your
dealer can do in about 10 minutes.

Pete. You are correct. Dennis Foran told me that He does not get involved in the tunes. and that the Triumph TORS tune for you particular bike is good for his pipes.

p.s I don't have Forans, I use Triumph Shorties + The Meerkat Bypass which is tuned to 92.5Db at cruise speed. It certainly does give some "Blat" when you give it a fist full and does have some decel popping but that is controllable by again feathering the Right Hand.

 
May-2011-1600, 20306 Tune, Mustang Vintage Solo Seat, Meerkat Cat Bypass, + Meerkat Modified Short TORS ,K&N Air Cleaner,K&N Oil Filter, JBQ lifting system, Gold Plug Magnetic Sump Plug,Dart Fly screen, Rivco Risers, GiPro Gear Indicator, Breakaway Cruise Control, Avon ISO Grips, Scorpion Western Low Handlebars, Kury Switchblade Pegs, Garmin Zumo390LM,Michelin RC2 on Front RC 3 on ,Modified Rear Drive Pulley Hub Bearings (Mat1600/Alex4 Modification) Front Susp: Std & 7.5W Oil /126mm Air Gap & Rear:Hagon Nitro's with 26Kg/cm Springs + Lots of other "Bling" stuff.

Thanks for your comments guys. Have decided to have it put on a dyno to get the best results so will now shortly as pipes arrive next week and then straight to the dyno shop. Here's hoping to a wise choice.

tuneboy key over here cost me $250 and another $250 for 2 hours on the dyno. my decel popping got alot better but did not completely stop it just part of the bikes nature , i guess

 
currently on a slow Harley but will have another Triumph eventually

Fitted Forans on mine last year and downloaded TuneECU for free, bought the cable for $30 and due to oldtimers I forget which map I loaded but she has plenty of power and minimal but sexy decel popping.

Razorbacks, thunderbird air intake, and Dizzies no cat 1700 tune.
Heaps of grunt and great sound with virtually no noticable popping. But boy! Does she suck up the fuel like its going out of fashion!
I guess thats always going to be the price you pay for extra horsepower.
