Doesn't seem right to me.

worntorn said:The reason I ask is that I just had the Triumph remapped, no charge and the problem fixed was pretty minor in comparison with yours.
The bike would some times idle at a slightly higher rpm than normal, about 50 rpm. You could hear it pick up then drop down, no problem but the new map fixed it so the idle is steady like a metronome.
Also some riders( my God they are a picky buncj!) complained that they felt the fueling was uneven when riding very slowly, say thru town at 20 MPH. I can't say I noticed this as it was smoother than my carburetted bikes already, especially if I switched it to Road mode instead of Sport.
Anyway, the new tune perfected the idle and did make things smoother at the low end somehow. Seems to be a bit more grunt down low as well.
So it would seem if a cheapie machine like the Triumph gets reflashed for free to fix tiny imperfections in running, Norton shouldn't be charging to fix fairly severe fueling issues in their considerably more expensive machine.

All the crappy symptoms came back. Took the bike back, reinstalled #91, bike runs like a Swiss watch. I think Gold Coast only charged me 60something.(1/2 hr.) but I did buy the bike from them. Of course did not charge me the second time. Also, Matt at South Bay told me the wires keep the bike from starting and warming up properly. Haven't gotten to them yet because I've been very happy lately. Keep in mind, I have the SBN decatted pipes. What are you running?
