Turned out a nice day and had the bike dug out and at my work so put
bad tag back on and rode it to the local ice house.

As some of you know I was having an issue getting my laptop
to load the software to connect with the ign. box so got another laptop
and got it all working.
I can now program all the timing curve's, the RPM window switches to
auto shift the air shifter and kill the ign. on the shift.

I can change the graph to show each curve when reprogramming each one.

The page for setting the RPM switches.

Also has a limited amount of data logging. These number's are not right their what was in the box
I need to reset them all and start over.

I have to say I really enjoy this post and follow it regularly, many thanks Dave.
As for the wheelie situation, is there anything you can do about changing the geometry at the rear to reduce front wheel lift? I know virtually nothing about this but I remember someone (I think it was SBK Racer?) a few years back talking about the degree the swingarm sits to the ground being very important as well as the mounting point of the top of the rear shock to alter the direction of force when the chain loads up......don't know if there's any meat in this 0.02

Needing to do something about the wheelie issues and talking with a few buddy's
putting shock's back on would be the best place to start so.

Pulled the shock's off the ZRX made some temp. adapter plate's and
used them for mock up.

Sounds crisp. How much longer is the swing arm?
