I believe they contacted the dealer and put them on notice. The AG office lawyers also provided support/advice on how to pursue and handle the matter.
Yup I’m in right now for a coolant leak the streetfighters are having issues with it from the water pump gasket
I’m fully tuned they didn’t give me any issues, that said if you come in with a fried piston they will blame the tune
It's out just got mine I can't tell if it's more top end but bottom end feels more alive I'm throwing it on the dyno soon. Deff starts better and the idle is smooth. I kinda feel like I lost some higher end pull but I only have 20 mins on itWhen will Brentuning finally release the flash advertised for the Streetfighter V4
SLR is a high quality tune, I am very happy with the product and Frank's service.

Understood on Frank..in first 5min i could tell he was something special.
So i pay 800 for the tuner delivered to my door, then copy the base file from the bike, email that to Frank..he sends me maps to upload into handheld then you flash it into the bike ECU....
He said he can put the fan's on earlier, and eliminates some of the stock fueling issues....
He also said i can get a dyno run, and send him the data for adjustments to my canned tune...seems like a good investment for the bike.
Really i'm just concerned with a lean condition leading to another blown motor. My 1199 had ducati upmap (termi slip on only) and i know the bike ran lean based on how my blown to .... piston looked haha...
Do i have this right fellas? and appreciate all the help guys!

Yes, that's basically how it works.
Bren got a bad rap from some dubious marketing nonsense with some Troy Gleason character and .... posting on forums. It was worse on the jap bike forums than here. So you have all that drama, and the polar opposite which is SLR. If I were going with a Dimsport tuning option, yes the hardware is the same, I'd go SLR. The tunes between SLR and Bren are the result of the tuner. I think there was an old thread on here were someone was having problems with a Bren tune and went to SLR to get it sorted out.

Thanks dude for all the help today. So the other option is looking like wool rich tuning.
Price is basically the same do you know if they are offering a can tune at all or would I need to find a custom tuner which is proving extremely difficult here in Texas..

Woolich has an auto tune feature where you ride and it logs the wideband O2 sensor. It matches this to various points on a chart, a map if you will. You then go back and correct these values to what you want. Tuneboy did the same thing with my 1199. I found I wasn't able to reliably hit all of the points on the street which is why I think its better done on a dyno. I think Woolich is the better, more feature rich option, if you know what you are doing or have access to someone that does. If you are looking for a very good plug and play option, SLR is the ticket.
A custom tune will be better, no doubt. I'd only argue to the degree in which it matters.

I've got the SLR tune on my V4R, and the Woolich on my 2022 Panigale V4.
I'd say the SLR gives more features - Frank mapped a quick action throttle, adjusted EBC fuelling, and tailored the 'canned' tune based on AFR from a dyno run. I have the handheld unit and can read and clear error codes with it.
The Woolich, arguably, gives a better 'tune', as it is custom mapped to your bike on a dyno. Arguably, if you buy the software, you will then be able to add more features as Woolich adds them.
Riding both bikes, both maps are very smooth and effective.

Brentune is worth every penny. All you haters calling it a canned tune can think what you want. I just did a stage 2 on a 22’ V4S and it’s worth every penny. Gets rid of the twitchy throttle, gets rid of the quieter DB when in neutral power is consistent throw the whole rpm range. The stage 2 feels like 25% more power as well. Maybe it’s not that much but it feels like that much! Worth every fricking penny!

While I agree with you on all of these statements, as I also have a stage 2 on my 2022 v4. you must be bone stock, as it was amazing right until the moment I changed exhaust and asked for a tune, it has been a complete and total headache. New tune, load, not right, new tune, load, not right. I am awaiting someone with similar mods to come get there bike dyno'd to figure out the errors I am having with mine. The tune has completely made it unrideable for fear of damage to something internally. It bucks, it jerks, it lacks power in low rpm. And the check engine light keeps illuminating after riding. It has 1100 miles on it, and it is sitting waiting for brentune to get it figured out. They have in the past fixed all my issues with other tunes on other bikes. So I have no fear this will be the same. But I am still waiting. Already spent the money, so I could bite the bullet and go SLR. Or use the upmap which tbh, I dont like it. Has anyone done SLR on a 22? Apparently it is quite a bit different tune wise then a 21 and older.

I have SLR on my 19 V4R, but went with Woolich for my 22 base. Wasn't unhappy with SLR, just wanted to try something else. I've got a slip-on system and Sprint air filter upgrades. The engine light is on, but bike runs perfectly and I'm happy with the map.
Nobody give a .... about that bozo. 650 ib real jerk off show off . Bt moto is rip off get akro tune or SLR the best . If u want to simply save route up map 800 for 23 v4 it a lot of improvement for 23 model. For those that complain about t800 is actually working for that ....... bren. Guarantee my bike with spark exust push 203 at rear with up map 800 I got 23 v4 what else do u need .
