Greetings! New-ish owner here. A couple of months ago I was fortunate enough to find a 2012 vintage Commando 961 Cafe Racer on sale with 192 miles on the clock. The dealer told me that the one previous owner was a collector who'd bought it then later decided to sell to release funds for a property investment.
Needless to say I've put a few more miles on since then!
With its first MOT being due and having done enough miles for a first service I took the bike to Krazy Horse because a) it's close by and b) several posts here have praised them.
As requested they fitted long decat pipes, had a poke at the flickery fuel light and did the service. I also asked for one of the funky remaps that people have praised but was told that on the older bikes the ECU isn't field-programmable. When I suggested swapping in a newer ECU I was told it "probably" wouldn't be compatible.
Does anyone know if that's definitively true? Am I stuck with the factory settings?
Here's the bike!
