Moto wheels is curently selling this http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=19379.0 Ecu reflash kit.  Has anyone used it yet?  Can it be used to install custom maps, or a map from a different model if say you put 1100 cylinders on a 1000 engine?
The discription says it can be used to read trouble codes, can it clear the service light on the newer bikes like a VDSTS?

The Ducati ECU remap kit is a brand new product from Europe.
The "re-map kit" is basically the same thing as buying a DP ECU for about 1/2 price- plus it has a few extra optional features like the diagnostic software and it allows allows you to return it back to stock mapping. The maps that I have seen are exactly the same as what DP provides. If you need a map for a 1100CC motor, we would download the map onto the unit before we send it out to you. You then re-flash your current ECU with the map. It is fairly plug and play.

If you want to make a custom map, there is still nothing better than the NEMESIS-2 Type 2 ECU: HM, M695, S4RS, SC

Ok one more question. If you purchase the reflash unit do you have access to a pool of maps? Or are you limited to one map of your liking? You mentioned downloading maps.. if purchased can I download maps as well?

Great question!  I was just wondering the same thing myself.

Do you know if this will work with the 5.9 ecu installed in the M695?

We have the hardware/software here to download the maps on to the kits. You would have to send the kit back to us to re-load the map. Right now there is only one map per type of bike (DP).

They don't have a map listed on our original list--but I heard they were adding the M695 to it soon.

I guess I'm missing the point of purchasing the hardware then. Seems like a bit of a waste to send out units that function on a 1 time basis for 1 bike... save the environment lol? There isnt a lot of use in flashing back to stock.... and youre stuck with stock maps.

If only you guys are going to have the ability to change maps and bikes. (or are you selling a unit that allows general public the same features?)... why not just offer a service where you guys flash ECUs?  Sure the price for the unit is less then a brand new DP Race ecu... but its on par or more then a used race ecu.... which ultimately gets you to the same place.  [moto]

Seems like the purpose is to flash your ecu yourself to DP specs, without having to shell out 1200 for a new DP ecu.  Kinda late to market with this though, as there are now at least 5 tuners able to flash the ecu with custom maps.

Exactly what I was thinking... I know there are a few places offering stock map reflashes. Can you shoot me a PM and let me know who is doing actual custom maps and flashing them to stock ecu? If they are local to me this would be perfect.

Why should a company put money into to R&D and NOT limit it to one use on one ECU. The aftermarket diesel truck market has been doing this for years. it's the only way the can protect themselves from one buy buying the kit and then flashing all of his buddies bikes bang head .

The real question should be why the Ducati make pay 1200 for the DP ECU when  they could load both maps in to the ECU at the factory. Aprillia does this so I know Ducati could too.  bang head

But what about s2r1k owners? I don't see it listed but can't think for the life of me why there wouldn't be one...
