Reflash GSXR600 ECU as GSXR1000

Busa Quick · Senior Member

What year of bikes are you talking about? That makes a big difference.

Ah sorry, it's an 08 GSXR600, assuming it'd be best flashed with the K7+ GSXR1000 image?

Busa Quick · Senior Member

I believe the answer is yes. I downloaded a K9 600 map "I believe is the same as k8 600" with the same harness the k8 1000 uses.

People have also put the Gen 2 Busa code on the 07 up 1000s but, I think you lose the steering damper function atleast.

Goodo, Yeh K8 and K9 are identical. Does anyone have a 08 GSXR1000 stock ecu file they want to share?

And not concerned about the damper function, stock damper is long since in the bin. I hope to no longer need that resistor but :)

I downloaded my K8 1000 file from my bike and e-mailed it in to be added to the list but, I don't think it got added. Therefore, I use the k7 map that is supplied with ECU Editor. If you have the software you can look over any of the maps for 600's 750's 1k's and Busa's.

Ah thanks, didnt realise the maps were there. Cheers :)

Hm I flashed it last night but it wouldnt start... more research is needed me thinks

kordo · Member

Ok so I was half asleep, it didnt work because of a reason I wont state...

I loaded the GSXR1000 maps (K8 and K9) and both seemed to work, dyno testing this weekend.

But I loaded the BUSA Gen2 map in and I had smoke coming out from under the fuel tank/air box (most of smoke was emerging out the front where the bolt is)

Now there was a LOT of smoke but it all seems to be functioning just fine... so something was getting over-worked but I dont know what. Pair valve maybe? Any ideas? I can send through the map I made if needed

Thanks

I am taking a guess here but, I think it might be your exhaust valve control motor. There is a box under the tank mounted on the frame with 2 cables coming out that go to the header where the exhaust valve is.

Normally it is controlled by the ecu with position feedback. Perhaps with the Hayabusa code it tryed to run without stopping.....up against the stop until the motor burns or smokes.

You can disconnect the plug and disconnect the cables at the header. The valve has a spring that opens it if the cables are disconnected.

That's been removed.

I have a 1W resistor wired in place of the steering damper and have been told that apparently this can be burnt out?

Hello everyone, I too have the ECU refleshed original GSX-R European 600k8, in that the European gsxr 1000k7 to use most functions on ecueditor. reflesh just after the bike does not start and the LED flashes quickly and then turn off dell'immobilazer. but the bike does not give me any error with the test. how can I fix this?? thanks

kordo · Member

it's probably flashed as a US ECU and looking for the resistance...

michrider · Member

my ecm it refleshed at gsxr 600k8 eu 37h00 to 1000 k7 eu 21h50 in us version.. but I try reflesh in 1000k8eu 21h50 fot it work?? thx

michrider · Member

I solved my problem.. thanks anyway!!

Twice · Senior Member

What was the problem that solved it?

kordo · Member

Had it in EU mode

michrider · Member

I refleshed the ECU with the image eu 21h50 but the bike would not start. I then refeshed the ECU with the image 20h60 and modified the electrical system from eu to us and is started.
