No because it doesn't change the motorcycle from how it was constructed - probably says that you can use it in the manual anyway.
Has anyone declared a hilltop remap to their insurers?

so,
best policy (ho ho) is to buy a secondhand bike that you "don't know" has been mapped.
vendors tapping their nose and winking when asked about such things, could potentially be increasing the value of their bike

Jeez, get it mapped, keep schtum and just ride the fucking thing.

I'm with Bennets and the cost was only about £6 extra anyway - that was to declare power commander, full exhaust system and added crash bars
Surely all you are doing is making the thing run the way it should have run when it was made!

Mine is so much more predictable (PC-V) that it feel like the bike handles better. So from a safety point its likely to be positive or at least neutral.

'Made' includes the software/firmware as well as the mechanical bits - one can't work without the other these days.
If you know that the bike has been modified and the insurance company ask you then you should tell them otherwise your contract could be revoked when you need it most.

It's the owner's responsibility to actually know whether the bike is standard or modified.
Yep - as soon as you purchase any secondhand bike you should get a team of mechanics to fully disassemble* the bike and check for any irregularities - bit like after winning a race at the TT
* edited to keep Schtum happy
Hiding your true feelings about the bike are unlikely to be helpful, I wouldn't have thought....
