I just bought the Tuneboy Triumph starter kit from the group-buy going on over at triumph675.net and I have a couple of questions (Tiger 1050)....

With the Keihin ECU you cannot 'save' your stock tune, so if I wanted to just run the stock tune with the O2 sensor turned off, do I have to load the base tune map from the tuneboy site (which may or may not be the same as the stock triumph tune?).

I am initially just trying to get rid of the low-rpm jerkiness, so am I correct in trying to turn the 02 sensor off first?

Thanks!

The maps supplied by Tuneboy are the Triumph stock tunes.

Its unlikely the low rpm jerkiness is due to the o2 sensor.

clarify please what you mean by low-rpm jerkiness?

What I mean by 'jerkiness' is at low RPM (2000 ~ 3500) the bike will not run at a steady RPM, it is always hunting/surging. If you are at a steady-state RPM in this range, and then accelerate (just a normal roll-on) it will not accelerate smoothly, it's jerky.

Hope this helps.

so is this is at a constant throttle position as well ?
or only while accelerating?

the jerkiness on acceleration can often be attributed to lean running conditions leading to lean misfire.
ethanol in the fuel exacerbates this problem.. i know we have this problem in the northeast.
disabling the O2 sensor will not really fix the issue per se.

i would fatten up the TP/RPM regions that are relevant to the problematic areas by 5-10%

also, smoothing out the timing curve and bumping it a couple degrees advanced almost always puts a smile on the rider's face
