Triumph Thunderbird full ECU remap – an owner’s words
Most of the throttle and power delivery problems with modern fuel-injected bikes are the issues that arise from the manufacturer having to deal with ever-tightening emissions laws. Luckily, an ECU remap offers a simple solution. Richard was kind enough to email his thoughts after we’d remapped his Thunderbird, a bike that responded well. Been riding [...]
2011 Triumph Speed Triple full ECU remap
The owner of this Speed Triple had changed his pipe and was worried about potential internal damage, so left it with us for a week. Now we reckon for whatever reason – maybe warranty purposes – Triumph are deliberately mapping these engines to a fairly placid and conservative state. By the time we’d finished the [...]
Triumph Street Triple full ECU remap – an owner’s words
James brought his Trip’ in for an ECU remap, and was kind enough to drop us a line afterwards. Stock it made 99.75bhp and 48.23lb-ft torque. De-catted, plus Leo Vince cans and a K&N air filter it left us post-ECU remap with 109bhp/50.95lb-ft. That’ll do! Afternoon Gill, Only had 40 miles or so since Wednesday but the [...]
Triumph 955i Daytona ECU remap to match stock end-can
This Trumpet’s had a chequered history – we had it in a few months ago after its owner filled it with diesel on a test ride. We’re slowly going through the things it needs to get it absolutely spot-on; this time remapping the Sagem ECU was on the list, to match the stock can we [...]
Triumph 955i full ECU remap
These older Triumphs are difficult to remap due to the Sagem ECU used, as the program keeps dropping out (it’s effectively a car ECU) and there are all sorts of quirks with ‘em. You think you’ve got a fuelling problem but in fact it’s the ECU not knowing where it is relative to what the engine’s [...]
Triumph 955i diesel fill-up (er, easily done…)
Oh dear. The owner of this Triumph 955i took it on a test ride from a dealer, and accidentally put diesel in it. He made a genuine mistake (through over excitement!) and admitted it straight away on his return. Anyway, he bought the bike and had it delivered directly to us, because the dealer he [...]
Triumph Daytona 675 ECU remap/Power Commander fit plus throttle body balance and valve clearance check
This 675 Daytona is owned by a young lad; he’s moved on up from a 125, via a Hornet and the Trumpet’s his first big sports bike (nice!). It’s a lovely, tidy bike – he’d already got a Power Commander for it and (although we wanted to fully remap his ECU) also had a quickshifter [...]
1996 Triumph Thunderbird, fork seals and coolant change
This a really nice example of a good, solid bike, the old three-cylinder Triumph Thunderbird. The owner said he’d found a lot of scum in his coolant, and was worried it was oil. What we found was that where the bottle sits, a lot of of the rubbish from the engine’s internal water system could [...]
Triumph 955i Daytona full ECU remap
This Trumpet made its way to us all the way from London. Originally, the owner was talking about getting his engine tuned, but after we’d gone through the expense of pistons, cams etc he wisely chose not to pursue that option. He still wanted to know what we could do for him, and tidying up [...]
Triumph 1050 Speed Triple full ECU remap
The customer who owns this Speed Triple fitted the pipe and high-flow air filter, but wasn’t happy with the custom ECU maps that the Triumph dealer was loading in – the bike felt like it was lacking something, especially in the midrange where he was expecting to get more drive. And he was right. So, [...]

2010 Triumph Sprint ECU Reprogram
The issues with this bike mainly concern power and power delivery off the bottom especially two-up. It’s been back to the dealer and had the latest factory tune, but the owner wants a little more. First job? Isolate the Lambda sensor and cap off the emissions unit. The bike was then put on the Dyno and we reprogrammed the stock ECU; fuelling at the bottom end has been richened up, taking away the ‘hunting’ snatchiness. Fuelling all the way through the rev range has been optimized and the ignition curve trimmed.

2009 Yamaha R1 Road to Race
To upgrade to race spec we’ve fitted an Öhlins rear shock and MCT have modded the front forks. The engine’s been out and we’ve adjusted the cam timing, ported and skimmed the cylinder head and we’re fitting a set of BSD Performance adjustable bellmouths. It’s also having a YEC race loom and ECU, plus quickshifter.
