i think when you take your bike into the dealer you have to disable it because it will mess with their diagnostic equipment

My 1000 had cough and stall problems when warming up with the TRE. I removed it and it got better. I don't know of the HP benefits for sure. Only an engineer in Japan knows for sure... ;)

there is no horsepower gain with a TRE...those ebay guys are just trying to sell them to the squids who will believe it... it just does it's job...eliminates the retarding of the iginition...

Well the jackass that sold me mine said I would gain 5mph going downhill with a tailwind.
And dont call my ignition retarded.

Yea, I was dissapointed to find that out.

So....I went out and bought some socalsvriders stickers, and gained the extra horsepower!!

I havent had any problems with the TRE - but its a smart one... soo give yours a quick IQ test before the install....

As far as the HP - more advance = more power. So while you only get it at less than half throttle in gears 1-4, you are getting more power...

Back in 04 when I put the TRE on my bike it had all kinds of problems, so I got rid of it, got a powercommander and dynotuned and haven't looked back since
