Which I added the footpeg adaptors into....but I thought I'd make a new thread for other stuff.
By the way - it took a few rides to get used to the peg adaptors - but they are awesome nowOut with the old....
In with the new......
Anyway, in the finest "it's only money" fashion I shelled out for a TRE.....
Actually - I got this locally for cheap so it wasn't such a big outlay.
For those who don't know - a TRE is a timing retardation eliminator. Lots of bigger bikes have the ignition timing "limited" or "retarded" in the lower gears so as not to apply full power. The reason being this makes them more civilized and less prone to wheelies, etc. The TRE over rides that and allows you to select an ignition map to fool the bike into thinking it is in a specific gear all the time. You can select any of the gears with this bit of kit - however gears 1-3 are timing limited on the Strom so there's not much point selecting them. Gears 4-6 are not limited but there are slight differences between them (EG: gear 6 has a speed limiter, etc). It's also unpluggable so you can return the bike to stock quickly (like the Booster Plug). It should be fun to mess around with different gear maps and see what the differences are on the road.
Anyway, I have a few other bits on the way so this will probably wait until next weekend to fit them all at once.
