Addendum - it was a long crappy winter.

I sent the ECU out to HSBK, who flashed it to DP specs, got it back real fast despite crossing the border.

Engine runs well in the garage, idles smooth, smells a bit rich as expected, now for the TPS reset and ARRRGGH - the local shop who said he can do it now tells me he uses TuneECU, which is only for 5AM's, not my old 59M. Which means I need to wait in line for a month or so for the Ducati dealer and their DDS....

(gonna ride it anyway in the meantime)

Update: Got the TPS reset at the last second as I was heading out of town for a 2K km tour of northern Ontario.

First thing's first - anyone in riding distance I highly recommend the Algoma loop, Sudbury- Sault St Marie-Wawa-Chapleau, then south on the 129 (tail of the dragon north), Manitoulin Island, ferry to Tobermory. All grand views and big sweeping curves of the Canadian Shield and the Great Lakes. Best riding I've done outside of proper mountains.

The bike ran beautifully - most of the route was done in 4th and 5th gear, lots of elevation changes, no issues with cruising low rpm stuttering like before. In town the improved response in 2nd around corners was very noticeable.

Pulled the plugs at home - tanned and pretty like in the textbook. Bonus - the soot fouling from exhaust reversion is gone with the straight pipes, shoulda pulled those baffles long ago. They probably made a 3dB change at most, so they were basically a charade for traffic cops.

In short, all success no regrets. Thanks fellas for pointing me in this direction.
