Anybody had anything to do with this bit of gear

Kind of vague product description.

Come on Ryk.

It's accepted WORLDWIDE!

On the other hand, having recently been to the doctor, that probe thingy scares me.

So just plug it in and every malady, performance issue and mechanical glitch known to the world of Triumph is instantly solved, heck, send me two.

Another fine product from KaleCo?

Thanks for all the helpful comments , I thought it was to just richen it up a bit as they are tuned to run very lean ,
Did seem a good idea while under warranty as i can remove in a couple of minutes if need to , Rather that a remap that could be seen by triumph

I've used the Booster Plug in the past and felt it did what it was advertised to do. Eliminate some popping, smooth snatchy throttle. With a lot of newer bikes having locked ECU options are looking limited for tuning. This or a grand for power Commander with autotone and a dyno run

IT may be a great product, they are somewhat vague as to the benefits and documentation to verify the claims. If they are all they claim, they could speed up product recognition with some intelligent self promotion and some reputable endorsements.

Puts those hydrogen injection systems to mind. Those systems that you put water in and are supposed to extract hydrogen and inject it into the fuel stream to give you more gas mileage.Problem is you don't get something for nothing. It drains power and the extremely small amount of hydrogen has no real benefit except to put money in the sellers pocket.

The way i read it it just tricks the computer into thinking it is 20c colder than it is so changes the fuel mixture
Very simple i thought

Me too, a simple solution no alchemy involved. Plus, if Mike says it works I believe him.

I used a product like this on my F.I. Sportster a couple years ago, it worked. What it does is trick the ECM into running a bit richer by changing the imput to the ECM. The only drawback is that the computer can only be fooled when it is reading the A/F ratio, not when it's running on the map. Closed loop/Open loop. whatever, it helped the idle and maybe cooled down the running temp just a bit.

My bike is running carbs so I fool it the old fashioned way.
Jets and needle.

Tune ECU won't accomplish the same results, maybe even a little better as it is infinitely adjustable?

Fitted and it works as they say , Much smoother ride
Happy with it and that`s what counts
