DP ECU?

[Chucko9-696]

Hello all,  I have been working out of town for a while, so i have some time in the evenings. So i was on fleaby and bought a DP ECU from a dealer a couple of months ago. I went home for the weekend and installed it and started up the bike and the first thing i noticed its in metric, Im old skool american. so i take the bike out of the parking lot and open it up only to see the rev limiter wack me on the wrist @ 9,250 rpm's .I thought it was supposed to raise rpm's to 10,500? It does say ducati racing when I turn on the key. Did I miss something any info would be great and Thank you all in advance for any info

I have the termi kit and Race ecu on my 696.  I don't get 10,500rpm in any gear.  The limiter kicks in around 9,500 in 1st and 2nd.  8,700-9k in 3rd and 4th.  Don't know in 5th or 6th.

I wish I could get 10,500.

Thanks Jerry, is your dash reading kph or mph?

I don't see much reason to run these motors to 11K, but I tried a couple of times and my rev limiter never even makes it cough. Right up through 11k it runs perfectly.  By the way, things are gettn' really busy on a Ducati at 11 thou, thou thousand.....  rpm.

ECUs always fire up in EU mode as default.  To set it to US mode follow obsidian gt's directions >>  http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=41934.msg764266#msg764266

My dash is metric but I'm up in Canada and that's the way we likes it up here.

What's this mile people keep referring to??

  Some believe that the original measurement of the English foot was from King Henry I, who had a foot 12 inches long; he wished to standardize the unit of measurement in England. Though there are records of the word "foot" being used approximately 70 years before his birth,[29]

Beats me too . 

Twelve Inches in One Foot..
Three Feet in One Yard...
and my personal illogical favourite.....  1760 Yards in each Mile....       

And the even stranger thing is that these wacko measurements pre-date Monthy Python by centuries.
