Fitted one of these this afternoon, what a great bit of kit. www.sol2.be €50 posted
When your in traffic at very low speed or off road I spose you have to keep on the clutch as the engine doesn't like it, as the F series tends to be a tad on / off on the throttle, some say the F800GS are the worst.
This little bit of kit has stopped all that & throttle responses is so much Smoother.
Got mine second hand from here.
But now I have one. I would happily buy a new one & definitely recommend one
Its the perfect answer on these "lean fuel mixtures" problems and is an add-on product that adjust the ratio of the fuel mixture to the optimum ratio during mainly the acceleration of the engine. So a richer fuel mixture to accelerate the engine. Also it will helps to start the bike better.
The result is that it creates a smoother power delivery throughout the whole rpm range! (already clearly visible at much lower rpm's compared to the standard configuration, where much less an "on-off" feeling prevails). The engine picks up faster and runs smoother. A clear improvement of a faster throttle response is immediately observed. Also, the KFR (Konstant Fahr Ruckeln) on the BMW boxer engines will in most cases disappear, as this is also a result of using a too lean fuel mixture.
HOW DOES IT WORK .
The module will only work during the open-loop mode. That is de mode where most of the effects of the lean fuel mixture are seen. When cruising, you need less power to keep the desired speed. So the motorcycle doesn't encounter hereby much problems.
It will interact with the IAT device. As explained above, the IAT signal is processed by the ECU module by shifting the entire result from calculating the fuel/air mixture based on RPM and throttle valve position. You can say that the IAT signal acts as a "final" multiplier.
It basically shifts the IAT temperature with -20°C. This means that the ECU or computer is fooled and thinks that the temperature is 20 °C colder than in reality. The result is that more fuel will be injected and that is the goal we want! Why -20°C? Calculations and field proven tests have shown that this gives the engine the best technical performance! You need however to be careful that you don't inject too much fuel. This is the case at temperatures below 0°C! Under 0°C you need to offset the temperature less than 20°C to avoid problems of too rich fuel mixtures which results in bad starting of the engine, too high fuel consumption,...)
To keep the various motorcycle configurations and different temperatures under control, I made a calculation model. I can lay perfectly the offset curve where I want, by using different electronic components. The main component of the ACCELERATOR module™ is a sensor that measures the outside air temperature very well. The other components bent the curve in some temperature ranges, to avoid the problems below zero degrees as mentioned before. The ACCELERATOR module™ is designed to work in all temperature ranges, i.e. from -30°C up to +80°C.
