CHAPTER 3 TUNING OVERVIEW


By following these steps, the SmartLink III software will help you tune your
bike in a minimal amount of time.

1. Establish a module link (see section 1.4, “Getting Started”). The

motorcycle must be “ON” (or running, if you need to hear the motorcycle
run while making adjustments).


2. Upload the calibration file stored in the module to the computer (see

section 2.1, “Upload Current Module Settings”)


3. Modify the calibration (see Chapter 4, “Modifying a Calibration).

4. Save the changes to the computer’s hard drive for safe keeping (see

section 2.1, “Save the Current File” or “Save the Current File Under a
Different File Name”).


5. To be sure the changes will take effect in the module, download the

calibration file to the module (see section 2.1, “Download File to
Module”).


6. Turn the bike off and disconnect the communication cable from the

ignition module.


7. Ride the bike. If any tuning is required, go back to step 1.

CHAPTER 4 MODIFYING A CALIBRATION

Higher values of spark advance generally can improve response, efficiency,
and power until the point of detonation, which reduces power and can
damage the engine.
