2010 Ecu On A 2013 Model?

I would be cautious as if there are definite changes to the engine then the map will be different...how much i cant say it could work but its a risk without seeing the map comparison.

 

Hot start problems are often down to the ECU temp sensor,
In theory if both ECUs have the same sensors and there have not been any more added on the later version they could be swap-able but as i said if there are changes like different cams or cam timing or ignition timing or fueling then the maps are very likely to be quite different between the two.

 

If the same ECU and you can get software then the map should be able to be rewritten/swapped but sorry i cant advise for definite as this model is unknown to me I just understand ECUs and mapping.

Welcome to the best bike forum on the net....

 

Here's a suggestion that might help if your bike is fitted with an IACV - a solenoid driven valve attached to the air box.

Bad or no tickover is often caused by problems in this area, so here are a few things to check :

1. This device has a number of vacuum pipes attached to it, if any of these isn't 100% sealed it will cause your problems. The solution is to replace all pipes. I bought a mtr of silicone vacuum pipe of the correct internal diameter and cut it into 4 short pipes - never had a problem afterwards;

2. Another issue with this valve it can get dirty and not function correctly - clean with aerosol brake cleaner.

Cheers and good luck

Good point! also IACV is related to TPS sensor voltage/resistance and if its been disconnected or incorrect will also cause hard start/bad running/hesitation so worth checking along with sensor/engine earth points for corrosion etc.
