I rode an early one massive hole circa 2k rpm, improved on the later bikes post 2016, 2022 LCD dash bikes get major power and torque changes in line with need to meet euro 5 emission regs - two more cat sensors and they wound up the ignition curve with improved knock detection = more torque and slightly more top end grunt 1000 rpm lower (with same cyl head and cams)For those who don't know, I've had a 2014 GTL and a 2018 GT before the 2022 B. I'm trying to think back, I honestly can't remember if I tuned the 2014. When I first test rode the 2018, I instantly felt something was amiss with the power. We all came to learn about the infamous throttle lag during those years. Dark times were they. The Bren Tune corrected the misgivings of the 2018 for sure, and that engine needed it.
so an adaption bodge up (stretching the manu built in adjustments) and fixing them closer to the edge, would pep the bike up a bit. But this is not and has never been remapping - and this can only go as far as the manu adaption area took the bike. If emission regs / other needed tweaks need to go futher fixing the disaster map the manus build, then this type of change isn't the right way forward.... woolich racing have taken on how to get at BMW ECUs and the madness of their engine maps in the last year, so the world could be about to provide the correct way to do it for the K1600 if we ask them
