You're slick. You caught me.

I actually did a lot of work on my family tree a few years ago. There is one gray area around the 1700's. If I could prove that connection I can trace the rest of the tree back to Derryville eons ago. The only reason I brought up 11 or 1200, there's a guy with my last name that was supposedly the Founder of Derryville Ireland. War hero, money, power. That just doesn't jive with my family as I know it, horsethiefs, renegades, and share croppers. SO, that gray area .....Well--just makes me wonder.

I can't recall my tree and the dates but somewhere back in the old woodpile is Andrew Jackson once they got on this side of the pond.

My aunt visited Ireland and went to the home of some shirt tail relatives.  Times were tough in the 60's and I think she never stayed in touch.  Too bad really, that would be a connection not many families have made after hundreds of years.

Ever been to visit?  Ireland is a fabulous place for a vacation (European HOG rally was there last year)

Never been Jim. My trips out of the states has been.....Well, let's just say I'm a homeboy.

Speaking of which, have you guys seen this commercial?  

Jim

Yup, that's a good one.............

Worth the trip if you ever get the chance - the World is a big place, and we'll never get to see it all!

Well, in the absence of any other suggestions except Jacques', I went with map 377.

Went very easily after that, uploaded the base map, and let it do the IAC, and that was that. 

Would someone who's done this be kind enough to answer a couple of simple questions?

1) After the IAC has been autocorrected, the instructions tell you to manually align the blocks before and after the autocorrected ones, to make them a straight line to the first, and after the last, autocorrected blocks.  Mine seemed fine already, not needing touched (although that screen, and hence the dots, is very small so it's hard to tell!) - is that normal, and acceptable?

2) I assume that's it, and (having checked that it's all set to closed loop) I just ride and let it tune?  If map 377 was far enough off though, I assume that it will take a few miles to get things right, because of the 5% (session) learning, but the 20% (max) learning will get it there in the end?

Cheers,

God afternoon Jim,

Now, you receive many mails not about your request but very sympathetic !

Jim, just saw a PM reading "go look at this thread."  Just hadn't noticed it.  I've done the TM install on my bike and one other now.  Only through the basic setup procedured on both and a bit more tinkering on mine after the fact.  But not a lot. 

May not be able to offer a lot of insight or support but glad to help if I can.  So if there's a question still unanswered offer it up again.  Will either dazzle with brilliance or make up some chit involving martians and left handed spanners.

Thanks 2L!  Go ahead and dazzle me with your brilliance regarding Martians and left handed spanners then! :-)  Hope you've read right through the thread, because the guys have come up with a few beverage-spew posts that are worth reading!

Last night I was having this dream about maps for TM/AT.  Incredible HP & Torque numbers most tuners only dream about.  When I woke up I realized that I know almost everything there is to know about the subject. 

As long as I am asleep.

If I am napping I can answer all your questions.

I hope that helps, Jim.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz  and furthermore Mr. Davidson, if you and that Harley fellow would quite trying to ogle the fast wimmens ankles and concentrate on that infernal bicycle contraption,  zzzzzzzzzzzzzz  you might make enough money to move far away from this  frozen hell of Milwaukee to someplace warm.  zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

zzzzzzzzzzz Sure the maps for the TM/AT are set but if you adjust the zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz then the bike zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz and it will give you the best.... snort  zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz


zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz sure Heidi, you can keep the last name Klum iffn ya want.........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

First off, being in the UK you'll have metric spanners.  I didn't think of it.  Martians are like Americans (or is that Americans are like Martians?), they don't use metric tools unless they have to.  So the frakking Martians will be no help to us on anything European.  They're just bastards that way.

On your #1.  From my experience yes, it's normal and acceptable.  You'd line it up if it wasn't "fine" already.  If it is then you're just that much farther along.  On my own I had to tweak the tail end of the line.  But only slightly.  On the other one I did the ends of the line had already walked toward each other and continued in a nice fluid line. 

On your #2, yes again.  The closer is the base map the quicker will be the learning curve.  On the red bike the base map seemed to be pretty close to begin with.  I still noticed it "learning" for the first 500 miles or so.  Most dramatically at first.  Then slightly as time and miles passed.

If yours does as mine did you'll notice it continually start a bit easier as the learning curve grows.  Idle will smooth out.  Acceleration curves will feel smoother.  It's actually an interesting process to notice if you're paying attention to it.
