Install and validation checklist
Confirm your motorcycle year against the 15→18 pill on this page.
Open the chosen Rapid Bike product and verify Item Kit + Wiring codes for that year window.
Install using the kit manual; keep connectors clean and route the loom away from heat and moving parts.
Validate on a controlled ride: idle, low-gear tip-in, mid-range roll-on, and steady cruise in your typical use.
If you change exhaust, intake, or regularly ride at very different altitudes, reassess maps / adaptive behavior instead of assuming the first setup stays ideal forever.
