I plan on getting my Gen II's ECU flashed. I reached out to Anthony but unfortunately he can't flash EU-spec ECUs. AFAIK, that leaves ECUnleashed and Off-The-Road. I had the former on my Gen. I and was happy with the results but it's pricey at over $500 with shipping. OTR's is about $100 less.

Does anyone know which is better?

Also, does anyone know of any alternatives to these two?

TIA.

Velox racing In Jersey UK (I think, could be Guernsey) they will ship, also CJ Racing in Bristol, both will do a great job, CJ will also do a full dyno setup, not relevant in your case I guess. velox charge about £175

Have you used CJ Racing? He is willing to send a flash to a shop in Japan he works with so it could be installed locally. But he says he's not sure if it can get rid of the off-idle bog in first gear, which is a big reason why I want to do the flash. He also blocks off the 02 sensors, which I didn't need to do for my ECUnleashed flash. Not sure what the downside of that is.

I never got to use CJ Racing in the end (bought the Gen2) but did speak to him about it, I would go with Velox, they have good review and from what I gather get rid of the off idle stumble, that have lots of reviews and the ship abroad.

I ended up going with CJ Racing because Chris offered to send a flash that he spent 5 hours of dyno time developing to a shop near me in Japan that I could ride to do the upload The transaction couldn't have been easier and the bike runs great.

That's really good to know, I knew Chris would do a great job for 'locals' but looks like he surpassed himself on this one..............
