They don’t use the ECU and both are compatible with the 1100.Doubt there will be one compatible with your ecu (if 1100). Why not just remap?
I don’t know how they work, but I’d guess they fool the ECU into changing the fuelling by giving different sensor readings than the standard ones.
Great reply, thx for info. I still say throw a file at it.A boosterplug is basically an extra NTC changing the value of the ambient temp sensor. So yeah, you're fooling the ECU. It thinks it's colder than it is. But only in open loop. In closed loop it still listens to the O2 sensors for the final judgement.
Max, what’s the difference between open and closed loop? You can be technical with me I’m not totally daft I know what an NTC is, a negative temperature coefficient. On central heating boilers they bleed a negative signal to earth depending on the sensed temperature.A boosterplug is basically an extra NTC changing the value of the ambient temp sensor.

I get my bike back on Thursday haven’t ridden it for about 8 months so I’ll check mine then. It’s getting an auto blipper on the gearchange.Also depends on what mods you have on your bike @Gasman . I always kept my Sled stock (no change in airbox or exhaust) and never found the Sled running bad. The only thing it sometimes did was a flameout blipping while downshifting for a standstill. In general the fueling never disturbed me.
