Hello everyone!!
I just installed a bazzaz zfi unit on my 12 m1100evo. I have gpr slip ons on it.
It runs much better and it doesn't pop at all when downshifting or when i let go the throttle. * it would pop like crazy before bazzaz ... The only problem I have is that the bike thinks Its idling and its not reading the speed or mileage .
Everything was installed properly , everything is grounded properly. The only thing is that this bike has two speed sensors , one for the front one for the back , I guess 'coz of the abs system . Bazzaz supplied only one speed signal amplifier and the instructions say to loop it on the rear speed sensor inline . I did that and still nothing . I even connected the same speed signal amplifier to the front speed sensor . Still nothing . I'll call bazzaz tomorrow Monday see what they have to say abt that...
Any of you had the same or similar problem when installed bazzaz zfi ? Any ideas what might be wrong ? Thank you .

Any update to this?  I'm still weighing the PCV vs Bazzaz thing and I too have an ABS bike so curious to see if this was resolved.

Just curious, Does the bike use the same sensor for the speedo and the abs?

update on this... its stupid and not proud of it .. but ill let you guys know abt it ...
i did the bazzaz installation with my friend.. who came from work after a 18 hour shift ... that said... we installed everything properly and closed the bike...
so speedometer and abs didnt work. i checked everything...  couldn't find the problem.
at some point i got pissed off and took the fairings off , tank , and ........ he forgot to connect the abs negative wire on the battery........ connected it .. put the bike together...
I LOVE BAZZAZ!!!  i feel much different... it runs better, sounds better, doesnt pop at all on deacceleration or downshifting... before it would pop like crazy.. remember i have gpr slipons.
