Hey fellas!
Still bloody waiting to get my bike fixed after the 4wd incident a coupla weeks ago
Anyways in the mean time my goodies have arrived from the states yeeehhaaaa,, so as soon as my scoots back---on they go..
My question is this: does any1 have a base map that they are happy with for the Thundermax to suit my o8 custom with heavy breather and V&H bigshots???
If they do i would really appreciate a copy
Im f***n spewing tooo coz i really wanted to go on the WA run with you boys but i dont think my bike will be ready in time!...
Ride safe everyone-----)))))

after playing with the tmax over the last few weeks i can realy relate to u if it was me id try out 401 , custom im asuming its a s/tail , pipes are not real important when looking for a map , kw hp mufflers are faily free flowing and would probly suit ur VH best , its also a late map , if ur not real happy with it u could always try a 103 like 192 or 398,, if u like the 103 maps u must change the injector size to urs , under tools in smart link
this is real important i learnt it the hard way and im still not happy
Base Map “Key Elements” a) Search for an appropriate map by the following “Key Elements”, in order of importance:Throttle Body / Injector Size & Style - Note that certain applications use an 8 degree spray pattern, and others use a 25 degree spray pattern. b) Engine Displacement - Bore & Stroke. A correct match to the engine’s stroke is far more important that an exact match of engine displacement. For example, a 2007 96ci engine would respond better to a 103ci map than a 2003 95ci map (modified factory 88ci engine – shorter stroke). c) Exhaust System Design – If an exact match does not appear in the Base Map library, select the Base Map with the closest style of exhaust system. Even if your brand is not an option, choosing the closest style will yield the best results. Group your exhaust system in one of the following three categories: i. Dual Exhaust – 100% separate exhaust pipes, short or long. ii. 2 into 1 Collector – both cylinder head pipes converge into one. iii. Factory style head pipe with crossover – dual exhaust systems with a cross over pipe that connects the front and rear exhaust pipes. The reason for selecting a Base Map by “Key Elements” is to find the closest Base Map available for your combination, by the most critical components. For example, let’s assume the engine combination in question is a 2006 88ci engine with 8 degree injectors. A map is found for an 88ci engine with the proper throttle body and 8 degree injectors, but there are no matches on the exhaust system. By browsing the Base Map Definitions, you find a map for an 88ci engine with the correct exhaust system; however this Base Map file uses a 2001-2005 throttle body and injectors. The difference in the throttle body size and injector flow will make this map a bad match. In this instance, using a Base Map File with the correct (#1) Throttle Body / Injector Size, correct (#2) Engine Size, and any exhaust (#3) will be a better selection for the application. Choose the exhaust system that is closest to the design of your exhaust and proceed forward
