Superchips
for VN800
Quoted by Superchips -
"Your Kawasaki VN 800 can gain from improved performance, smoother power band
via an Iconrace. This is an on-board computer that can vary ignition timing.
It does this using a pre-programmed performance map to enhance your existing ECU
commands without actually changing the manufacturers programme.
It's diminutive size allows it to be tucked way in any convenient location
and it uses the latest PIC microcontroller, running 4 times faster than most
current manufacturer's ECU's. This gives you low speed flexibility and
swifter overtaking."
