And I think the value of that is easily in the $300 range. But if I had to just GUESS, I would say most any reflash will give you that 70-80% of "greatness." Which is why I strongly encourage ANY Concours owner to reflash- whatever product they choose is almost a certain huge positive. I think it would be very difficult to "quantify" the effectiveness of a flash. And doing so shows extreme confidence, since it will foster more reviews from people who really CAN compare stock to A and to B (and/or to C). a lot like medications, books, movies, music). It would be a good industry for that model, since the ACTUAL flashing costs very little (the labor, shipping, and liability is small, it is the research and development that cost so much and need to be covered. It is a shame the tuners all don't offer deep discounts to reflash those who already have one of their competitor's products, since most people (me included) have a hard time justifying the price/risk a second flash (much less a third time) and thus are likely to never become their customer, anyway. Lots of extremely relevant things are subjective like that, though. And hard metrics such as dyno graphs, 0-60 times, and MPG can't show or explain all that good reflashing does (or doesn't do). Just wanted to provide another option for riders who want to try the less expensive option first. I am heading to the mountains next week and can’t wait to give it the full test. Got home and went for a quick ride (started raining) but I could tell a difference immediately and felt a more powerful, smoother and more responsive bike. Shipped from Florida to Indiana on Friday and I had it back in my hands the next Thursday – total of $22 shipping. While this may or may not be true, they were very responsive via phone and the turn around on the unit was super quick. One of the complaints I heard of Schnitz is they are not great returning emails. If you want it tuned to aftermarket pipes it is an additional $125 I should mention that the $75 is for stock bike. the $300 difference is enough to buy a set of tires. I figure for an all in price of $100 it was worth a try. I was going to go with the more expensive one, but shipping and payment restrictions made it much more convenient to go with Schnitz. I researched and debated, spoke to one of the $350 guys and he convinced me that I was trying to compare a Mercedes to a Yugo. They offered a reflash to improve performance for $75 plus shipping. I searched some more on the internet and found a place called Schnitz racing. Each charge $350 plus shipping, which to me is a good chunk of change. I searched the forum first and came across 3 options mentioned often and see no need to name them. And give a thumbs up to good service and a good product. I just want to share MY experience with an ECU reflash. I’m sure someone will chime in with the US cost shortly.įor me, on my ‘16 F3-L it eliminated throttle lag (which the pedal commander also now does), but also made it a much smoother, more responsive power progression.I have no desire to bash any other company or product. It then has to be reflashed….this is very rare. The quick flash works well unless you take your Spyder to a dealer and they reset your ECM for some reason. You can either take your Spyder to the shop and they can flash it in situ, or you can remove it from the Spyder and post it to your shop where they can either do a quick flash, or they can take it apart and do a permanent flash. It is performed by specialist tuning shops (CanAm Spyder specialists. It will NOT be done by your dealer….they frown on it (toeing the company line….not that your motor will blow up) nor can you do it at home. Not answering your questions in order, Bill ….
