I have read all of this thread and I am tempted. My Norge seems to be behaving well, 7000 kms on a new 2012. Smooth throttle good idle. Only thing I have noticed is popping on decel. Milage seems to be a consistent 40 mpg. Don't know the top end, have once hit 195 km/h good enough for me. The one important question, to me, is warranty. I realize the original map can be saved and re loaded, but, can this be detected? If this were done, new map installed then erased and original reloaded, anyone know of a time stamp or other evidence of the owner messing with the ecu map? Has anyone had problems with Piaggio honoring warranty after some mapping? Not that I'm expecting to need warranty...
Went to +15 on the co trim and cold start and hot and cold idle are perfect. I know this is not a scientific test but overall sound and running has been perfect even at part throttle operation.
Could someone explain what all changing the CO does? I'm clear that it impacts warm idle. Does it have across the board impact as well? Cold start/idle? Running mixture? And, am I after "lean best idle" or something akin to "1/4 turn richer than lean best idle" from carburetor days?
After setting CO trim to plus 15 fuel economy dropped 2-5mpg. It seems as if roll on is sluggish also. Dropping fuel back to plus 2 the engine sounds and runs great when rolled on, has a very addictive baawaaa when it hits 5k. Did not do this when richer.
Any idea what controls idle speed during warm up? My Norge runs great warmed up, but cold starting is a chore and it barely idles during warmup. Is this a mapping function, or is there an external device/control for idle speed?
niwax, what version are you running? I did an update yesterday for Waltr who's Norge seems very cold-blooded. I've just flicked it to Pete.
Have you guys developed improved maps for the 2-valve Norge also? I have an '07 that I wouldn't mind improving performance and/or economy on. I've ordered a set of cables from LonElec.
