I did a digital file order for my Thruxton RS 2022 model (USA). This has the Euro V emission systems, etc. I have slip-ons, decat, panel filter, AIS delete on it. Prior to the tune is was losing more and more power with each mod as expected; especially the decat). Very lean and very loud on startup. Decel popping was also getting disturbingly loud; not amusing any more like when I first just had slip-ons on the bike. After dropping the tune in according to their YT video instructions with my OBDLink LX and Tune ECU software, the bike was immediately better on startup, power and throttle response, etc. I am very happy with it. Full disclosure my bike is still moving up through the break-in stages so I haven’t done full throttle redline runs yet. Despite what misinfo on forums tells you, the bike isn’t going to tune itself by idling for an extended period of time. It does help with fuel trims at idle and very low load, but that isn’t relevant at mid throttle and/or mid rpms and above where the bike is completely oblivious to any mods you’ve made. It is a speed density EFI system. Obviously, you should get it to idle-trim itself after the tune anyways (as DNK instructions tell you to). Decel popping is still there after the tune, of course. This is caused by the reintroduction of the Air Injection System for EuroV and factory ECU tuning can’t remove something like that. DNK knows their stuff; they pointed out additional mods including that one that I was unfamiliar with, so I installed the Smart Moto PLE-132 Air Injection System delete kit which took ~25 minutes and removed 85% of the decel popping. I have yet to install the Evap delete kit they also sell, but that’s mostly just for cleaning the bike aesthetics. Bottom line, be sure to get the Tune ECU software license, OBDLink LX, MX or MX and a battery tender for the bike while doing the reflash. Over a decade ago I was a professional forced induction EFI tuner myself with experience from cheap piggybacks to full blown standalone ECM with DIY wiring harnesses, so I know plenty to get myself on the right track and find a specialist that knows what they’re doing with Triumphs. DNK TuneWork is exactly that. Thanks again!
