The tenere was dropped to me by Denis to improve ride ability , to improve throttle control and he was looking for some power gains with a custom on dyno flash as he had recently fit a high flow after market end can . Denis had owned the previous version of the tenere so was very familiar with the xtz range and there snatchy lazy throttle and there notorious factory gear restrictions .
What was done :
Firstly the bike was ran on the dyno to get our baseline figure via a sweep test (100% throttle) and a step test (this bike is generally stepped @ 50% throttle between 3500 and 5500 rpm to determined the bikes restrictions) . The graph below shows the before (blue) and after (red) results of the removal of the gear restrictions via our ecu flash . Notice the time of the run is also reduced as the bike has more power/ torque so gets there faster , some other parameters are changed including a deceleration 0% throttle edit via ecu . Transition from off to on throttle becomes less jerky/snatchy resulting in a serious on road riding feel . The next graph below shows the sweep test (power run) which is carried out at 100% throttle to determine the max power / torque output of the bike . Before flash (red) After flash (blue) . This xtz was actually quite good to start with as we can see below but power gains were made via the custom flash . The video below shows the step and sweep process that is shown in the graphs .

Hi Gary.
It was good to meet you in person and to say I’m delighted doesn’t cut it. The bike has now become the bike I thought I was buying back in 2011. Then was the 1st Generation Super Tenere and I was always annoyed at performance. Not to make this bike an out an out rocket ship but to have one that has good performance throughout the range. I proceeded to buy the 2nd Generation in April 2014 and was temporarily satisfied. But after the year and realising it had more performance was smoother and better than the 1st I was still dissatisfied. Then I got your contact. No point in me saying what you done your experience can surely do that. You have given me the Tenere I wanted. Feisty but smooth through the entire range I think better mpg and now at least the throttle allows me to control what the bike does
Thank you once again.
Denis
