DAD... I see you are referencing a Bosch stand alone control system on this thread, and a comment about someone willing to help you spend your money... I'm not sure what that has to do with my development research on the BMW engine or my post about what I have learned to this point. I'm not here nor did I post this information to debate stand alone control systems for any bike engines. These systems are available for any engine with electronic fuel injection and ignition. My research is being done using all of the stock factory electronics. I don't know that any sanctions allow these stand alone custom systems. For the record, I'm not in favor of nor advocating using any such system! That however could be a topic for another thread.

There are always people that would spend $20,000.00 on a stand alone Bosch system complete with dash if they thought it would make them faster and they had the disposable income to invest in one.
I for one would probably work on the idea of changing out that super Ecm to a little simpler one from another bike. Just because they are called "brain boxes" does not mean we can't do a transplant. They all work off the same basics, the counts of the crank may be different but they all measure degrees, rpm, and seconds and convert the inputs into a result. The older bikes worked on an open loop when you introduce the o2 sensor then they changed to closed loop not the best thing for racing. Look at all those old mechanical injectors and mags, they do a pretty good job on a race engine.
I applaude your work on the BMW engine. I thought the price is right racers out there would love them 5000 euros ECM's. If you check back to some of my previous posts I have been one of the few supporters of the BMW. To arbitrarily out law an engine because of a magazine advertisement, and that is what the magazine reviews are is kinda of dumb.
You got my support bud. You got a dry sump for a gen 4 Kaw yet?
