Product Description
Schnitz Racing offers ECU Reflashing for the Kawasaki ZZR-1400 that is restricted in the following ways:
- Limited Hard Acceleration by Restricting Secondary Throttle Blade Opening
- Reduced Peak Power Output by Limited Ignition Timing and/or RPM
- Top Speed Limit or High Gear RPM Limits
These restrictions are used to control power output to allow easier control of the motorcycle for street conditions. However, these will limit the full potential of engine for racing use. Allow us to eliminate these restrictions and allow your engine to run the way it should.
Kawasaki ZZR-1400 Concours 14 (08-24) Reflash Features:
- Increased Rev Limiter to 11,000RPM (+500rpm from stock)
- Top Speed Limiter Removed
- Radiator Fan Set to come on at 90*C (194*F)
- High RPM Ignition Timing Retard Removed
- Gear Based Fuel Trims Removed from Gears 1-3
- Secondary Throttle Blades Open More Aggressively And Stay Open
- Optional: Adjust the Fuel Tables in the ECU to match your Exhaust System (Additional $125)
What is ECU Reflashing? ECU stands for "Engine Control Unit." It is the computer that takes information from the various sensors on the engine like crankshaft RPM, manifold pressure and throttle position to determine how much fuel to deliver through the fuel injectors and when to fire the ignition coils. The computer "chip" that is the heart of the ECU is usually an EEPROM -- an Electronically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory chip. The Read Only part of that means the chip retains its programming without periodic electronic refreshing; loss of electrical power doesn't lead to the chip losing its programming (It's like the CMOS BIOS of a computer). "Flashing" the chip involves electronically erasing the read only program and replacing it with new, updated information (the engine control 'map').
How can you offer this at such a low price? We have been tuning sport bikes for 15 years. Our business is offering performance products for motorcycles. If an ECU is programmed to limit power output of that engine, then our products performance will not meet your expectations. We want to ensure you get all you can out of your purchase from us. Pulling the ECU data is no longer a “black science” limited to just a handful of computer wizards that have an exclusive on this technology and expect you to pay 3 or 4 times our price. We’ve been doing this since 2006 on Suzuki sportbikes that were limited. Now we have expanded to various other models.
How does your service differ from others – Our reflashing services remove restrictions that the OEM's have programmed to meet government regulations and that reduce throttle response and power output for novice riders. You are not purchasing a “lifetime” flashing subscription for services you won’t use. Our a la carte style checkout system allows you to purchase only the options you need. While we do offer fuel adjustments to match aftermarkets exhaust systems, we believe that you should have control over fuel adjustments with units such as Power Commanders that can be adjusted to match your specific needs.

C14 ECU Flash
Just get it!! The best $75 bucks you’ll ever spend on your bike. The C14 was fast stock but never felt free revving in gears 1-3.....always took a bit longer to really rev out as if being starved for air......but still fast. Enter Schnitz ECU flash......throttle response is instantaneous........bike leaps forward and revs out much faster and easier. It’s like a totally different bike. Shifts smoother as well. If you want to make a great bike into an incredible bike just get the flash!!!!

Working Great
Super fast turn around time. At first, I wasn't that impressed with the results. The first thing I noticed was the change in the on/off throttle response. Much smoother. As the days have gone on the bike has continued to run better and much stronger than before! You can feel the bike pulling harder all the way through the rev range. I can feel a nice amount of extra torque down low. May disconnect the battery next to give it a complete reset. Thanks Schnitz!

Ecu flash 2014 C14
What great company...... sent my ecu in and the was flashed and sent back to me the same day Total down time was only 3 days. Put the ECU back in and wow what a difference. Runs cooler at lower speeds and will pull on the top end until I let off the throttle.

Sick little mod that helps tremendously!
Really smoothed the whole bike out and sharpened the response perfectly worth the money.
