This option is mostly just fueling changes and can be dramatically improved upon. How do we know? We’ve tested all options extensively and can say with 100% confidence that our flash is superior in every way. The factory up-map flash option cannot be purchased independently without the purchase of an exhaust, and most dealers require you to change your bike to track only to even give it to you. So what do people with all other exhausts do? Not much they can do. Our mapping is currently the only truly developed and tuned file, using true Conti M4D Ducati function sheets and mapping accordingly, using our in-house motorcycle and dynamometer and datalogging. Not just nudging numbers in generic editors, with no testing, like we see so many people do. With or without an exhaust flash, we all know the Ducati V4R is a great bike! We also know it isn’t perfect.
