Title: Cagiva 1999 Gran Canyon - Duc 900SS
Post by Rat Patrol on 01/15/11 at 01:53:16
Bike has the Ducati 900SS motor with the 2-valve Monster heads as stock. Motor is stock internally.

Added Uni Filters and stock Hypermotard Pipe.

Dual Lambda sensors. Running the bike in open loop for most of the map, closed loop in the cells that seem to be where I'm in cruise mode.

Idle is quite lean, but if I richen it up, the bike doesn't run as smoothly.

Generally, the bike accellerates great and cruises very well. I still have some work to do at the low end and the very upper RPM range.

I was surprised at how much I had to lean out the base map, and also at how much leaner the rear cylinder ran than the front.

It's still a work in progress, but I'm happy with it overall.
Pete

PS: I shifted the break points around to cluster them at the areas where I seemed to be spending most of the time

Thx f sharing!

Do you have pod filters?

I don`t understand O2 targets, seems like almost only one value?

Agree, idle is indeed very lean.
2000-2200 more likely w freer breathing.

Your offsets looks much like mine & others I`ve seen so I guess you are close.

Upper RPM range, fr 5k RPM & Thr 11-13 seems very lean, try richen quite a bit.

Lotsa small throttle openings, quite different fr most I`ve seen. Also, you would benefit from Ducati RPM breaks, makes a small but noticeable difference.

Thanks for your comments, they are most welcome. One of the reasons I wanted to post was to get feed back from those who'd already been there.

Pods - I'm pretty sure that's what we call UNI filters. Individual foam filters to replace the single filter in the big box, yes, I've got them.

My thinking with the O2 targets was to activate closed loop mode only at the cells where i seem to be holding steady throttle for long periods. This means highway cruising, backroad droning along, or surface street cruising. Here in Florida most of our roads are straight, flat and boring so I do a bit of just rolling along.

I am going to focus more on the idle, agreed it needs some attention.

I'll take a better look at the upper range, truth is I haven't spent too much time there. The cluster of throttle openings and RPM break points at the lower end was based on where I was spending the majority of my time riding. I do plan on playing around some more.

All comments or suggestions are welcome.
Pete

I`d give the TPS & RPM breaks in the table I showed you a go: http://www.bikeboy.org/fuelinjection.html

I'll try that out this weekend.

I'll admit to being a bit stumped though. I assume the numbers they give for TPS are degrees of throttle, not mv? I can convert, but they have duplicate entries for some numbers. There are two rows for value 3 and two for 6.

They also seem to have rounded the numbers off somewhat.

Degrees yes, rounded abit yes.

First six is roughly (seen some variations):
1.9   3.2   4.1   5.0   6.0   7.2
the rest pretty OK.

I thought I'd post a follow up. I changed the breakpoints for TPS & RPM to match the factory map and added some fuel to the upper range.

Low to mid throttle response was noticeably worse. Top end felt better. Needs more testing, but I'm reverting back to my breakpoints.

Did you change the breakpoints using ECUControl or did you just edit the raw file by hand? Doing it in ECUControl will automatically transpose the map so it will basically be unaltered at any specific throttle, but hopefully with breakpoints better suited for further tweaking.
Editing by hand can and will ruin the map, potentially to the point of being unusable. Perhaps you are fully aware of all this.

Thanks Raz. I did the change in ECUController, I'm sure it would have made a mess otherwise.

I wasn't expecting any performance difference just from re-aligning the breakpoints, so that was a surprise. Of course, there's the possibility that the difference was just in my head, but the bike just didn't seem as crisp under accelleration.

I don`t quite get this,
do you mean that f e editing breaks in f e Wordpad will ruin the map?

But of course! If you change the breakpoints only, the map will not match its intended breakpoints.
Let's say you have this part of the map (and that these values are very good):

RPM         ...  4000  5000  6000  7000  ...
InjDur14    ... 10000 11000 12000 13000  ...

Now, say you decide you can ditch the 6000 column because it will interpolate just fine, but would benefit from a new one at 4500 because you happen to know things vary more at that range. If you just edit the breakpoints in WordPad:

RPM         ...  4000  4500  5000  7000  ...
InjDur14    ... 10000 11000 12000 13000  ...   <-- unchanged

You end up with a pw of 12000 instead of 11000 at 5000 rpm, and 12500 (runtime interpolated) instead of 12000 at 6000 rpm. If the map was good before, it is ruined.

When you use ECUController, it will transpose the affected portions of the map, so the net result at any given rpm and throttle is unchanged - but hopefully with a better foundation for future tweaks:

RPM         ...  4000  4500  5000  7000  ...
InjDur14    ... 10000 10500 11000 13000  ...   <-- transposed

The pulsewidth at 5000 rpm is unchanged, as is the (runtime interpolated) pw for 6000 rpm. For the new column of 4500 rpm, a new value is interpolated from the surrounding cells. At this point, the map should virtually perform the same as the original. But future tweaks or AutoTune could later tune this newly inserted value to, say, 10700 while the original map would always use 10500 from runtime interpolation between cells.

Hey Rat, which injectors your bike run the IAW-042 (red top,190cc/min) or the IAW-031 (green top, 270cc) ?
I have a 1990 900ie which comes with the reds, but I am using the cams from the 900ssie which I think use the greens.

I have just about finished the restoration of my bike and was going to stay with the reds for run up on the OEM ECU and switch to the greens once a few things where sorted however tonight I have found that my reds are jammed up so I have switched over to the greens and may have to run up with the caj ECU.

The local EFI guys have unjammed my reds and flow tested them at 210cc/min (better than spec! maybe they had better pressure) so they are now back in.
However all that cranking has brought the tired starter motor to it's knees ! The brushes are burned and the brush end bush has worn so badly that the armature hit the magnets and sheared off a big chunk of magnet!
Oh well a couple of days to wait now while the new bush gets made and new brushes arrive.
I put the MyP8 on the bike for the first time today to check the sensor readings, found and cleaned a dodgy oil temp connector, otherwise all good. Can't wait!

I have my Elefant running now using this map as a starting point with a global adjustment for my injectors(250cc/min).
A dyno session and improved my rwhp from 60 to 75! (will post my maps in a separate thread).  Most of that come from removing fuel so perhaps I would have been better without the global adjust !
Attached is a visual for the map. Funny looking spark map with some big advance which gave me a good deal of detonation when I moved to the Dyno but I hadn't noticed it on the road.

The spark map in the FIM map looks better to me:

Hey boys and girls.
New myECU user here, looking for a developed 900ss ie map.
I got the original on this thread but looks like there was a bit of discussion and change without the map being posted again.
Sorry to revive something so old...
Trav.
