Smithers Custom Map

I bought a 02 Busa off of Ebay about 6 months ago, and after riding my Blackbird, was not liking the abrupt, jerking off idle throttle. Bike was stock, so I put on a set of Akropovic slip ons and purchased a PC USB with a map preload for my bike.Well it was worse with the PC, so I just left it unplugged.

Last week I finally made it to Smithers Customs in Kansas City, and had them do a custom map. Wow! The Busa's throttle is as smooth as my Blackbird's and they got me 8 more HP. Didn't seem to hurt mileage much, because coming home I got 40mpg at 85mph, against a 30mph wind. They tuned it so I got a little better gas mileage at cruising speeds.

After my experience, a custom map just for your bike is the only way to go, and the guys at Smithers are very skilled with the Dynojet.

Here's a few links to pics and a short camera video.

I'm running a Smithers Custom map as well. Steve knows his stuff and has the best customer service I've found.
 
ya know we are pretty lucky to have board sponsors as good as we do....
 
wish I was in KS! Here in the mile high city I have heard that Faster in Denver is the place to get a custom map.. I really want to see if it would help
 
Steve and his guys know what they're doing! Great folks to do business with

Is it really worth it to get a custom map with slip-ons and PC(usb)on the 08 or does the ECU do the job just as good?
