Post subject:  for people like me who did not understand oxygen sensors.

I found this site which I think explains stuff in a very readable & easy way. I understand oxygen sensors now & also open loop & closed loop.
Hence tuning my ECU becomes a real possibility. Not bad for one page of info.

In actual fact this whole site is great. Here's another page. This is fantastic for someone like me who was great with older engines but unfamiliar with Injectors & engine management Systems. Learning curve approaching!

This is the tech library page. Never read so much & all written in plain English at long last.

A good read, filled a few gaps in knowledge (still plenty left ;) )

But wisdom is knowing how to properly make use of that knowledge.

Right now, Jazzy knows enough to be dangerous.

I watched some YouTube videos once for angioplasty. Had an old Chinese finger trap lying around so I told my elderly neighbor I'd make him a better deal than what ObamaCare would provide. Didn't work as well as I thought it would.

Cheap Chinese junk finger trap.

Yes don't worry I'll have learned enough to at least feel ok about buying ECMTUNE, just got to make connectors to fit the & power the box whilst I have it beside my desktop reading it as a hard drive. Some stuff will obviously have to done connected on the bike but some doesn't. Looks easy enough to do as the

wiring diagram tells you how to do it. I was also good with electrics but not ECU's, believe me that knowledge is coming in leaps & bounds.

Wisdom actually is understanding & making good use of that understanding before acting.
I understand computers very well, used to build my own until I found a good company to do it for me.
I now understand how the ECU works, stores information & how it gets the information it works with & why I need the software to decode the information with.
I could have just paid the £50 to activate the tuning software but that would have been "unwise" as I had no idea what to do with it. Now that I have begun to understand what it's capable of, it's becomes a viable proposition.
Won't be too long before I totally get it, as a learning curve, this is really interesting.
As far as being dangerous, that's why I have the biohazard sticker on my 1125r ha ha.
