    By a piggy Back I mean that it runs alongside the existing Triumph Data, so 1) does not affect warranty 2) not traceable 3) completely adaptable on every ride

    i really need to find out where i can get remapping done easily, this is what puts me off from doing these kind of mods…. a remap will be atleast £100 or an hours labour as I am in the unfortunate position that my closest triumph dealer are total rip offs, well known for poor service, long waiting times, and will never give a good deal on new bikes, the main reason for buying my bike from triumph 120 miles away in Milton Keynes , i even hired a van and took it back there for its first service…. going back to my younger days and motocross bikes i made a vow never to buy anything from them again.
    i dont know what hilltop is,is it a triumph dealer….

    No he is independent, has a dyno rig & specialises in race tuning. 2 options. 1, disconnect battery then ECU, send in post to Hilltop for soft ware download, 2 days later returned in post, follow very basic instructions supplied & enjoy, or 2, book bike in with him he will dyno before & after download, job done. £300 or £360 I think for dyno. Check website Hilltop Motorcycles.
    My calculations, get your money back in fuel savings alone within 15,000 miles. No brainer imho :yum

    Do you know how it adapts Ken,I’ve gone for a power commander so I can get two maps installed one for baffles and one for straight through, but depending on how adaptable the Hilltop one is I might go for that instead

    Actually that blue will probably go better with the gold than the black
