So I'm thinking about letting my moron flag fly and try fukin with my ECU myself... It's probably not a great idea since I can't figure out the difference between the two products flash tune is offering for the busa. There a "data link" and a "bench" model. Anyone tell me what the difference is between them?

I know... I know... Leave it alone... Send it to mr site sponsor and he will do it. Buuuuut I wanna do it myself! /End tantrum

Seriously though, my main goal here is to remove the fuel cut off when I let off the gas to get rid of that hard engine brake.

Bench model is where you pull the ecu from the bike and take it to a bench with a 12-14volt power supply and play with the ecu on the bench.
The other is done insitu with the ecu left in the bike.

I removed the fuel cut off as I got tired of the GF head butting me everytime I rolled off the throttle. Make s a huge difference for me.

I would go with the bench model that way u can possibly do another bike if u know anyone that wants to play with their ecu.

ecu editor does not license, i have on bike for gen2 and bench for gen1. bike harness you could remove ecu and swap one in to flash, and bench mode the ecu comes out every time you make a change. check out boostbysmith.com

So your after woolich instead of ecu editor then?
Yes! But maybe No? Mostly because I don't know a single thing about this stuff
I only know what I've read on flash tunes website. I haven't looked into other tuning software... Because I don't know what exists lol I started off just looking for a way to ease up on the engine braking when I let off the throttle. That rabbit hole of info lead me to flash tunes website and I recall their stuff basically all said "FT ECU License to allow unlimited flashes for a single ecu"

Have a look at boost by smith website he has the interfaces for using ecu editor i believe and it would make more sense to use the free software of your only wanting to do the basic flipping of switches in the ecu.
