I agree with you about the UpMap system. I still don't know if I have a second map ie. stock. I would rather have gone with Power Commander and do my own maps, more work but PC worked really well on my Africa Twin. I think you'll like the Dual Sport better than the GPS front. I did not feel as comfortable in the dirt with the GPS as I do now with the DS.
I actually considered Power Commander based on your video where you mention it. However, if my memory serves me, they didn’t have a specific map for Tuareg’s or something like that. Therefore, I just went with what AF1 was selling. Oh well, I’ll talk to AF1 and see what they say about the stock mapping. I doubt I’ll ever go back to stock.
@@ocdmoto Your right PC doesn't have a Tuareg map but they have Tuarno maps. I worked my own maps off the one AT map and got it very good without a dyno run, just seat of the pants. I don't like the fact I have to pay again to get another map from UpMap and not being able to see the actual figures or changes of the map.
I have been considering doing a full exhaust and upmap for my 24 but 2k is a lot of money for a bike that is pretty damn quick stock... Have you tried the new system on the individual mode? I see your on explore and that is AEM 2. Any popping on deceleration?
What’s AEM 2? I haven’t really tried out different modes since getting the bike. Yes, I agree $2K is a lot of coin, but I still think it’s worth it for me personally.
@@ocdmoto If you go in to riding modes in settings you can change the throttle response on your off road and individual maps. AEM (Aprilia Engine Map) is the throttle response mode. 1 is aggressive and 2 is more chill. You can also change around your AEB (Aprilia Engine Braking).
Are you talking about which side of the hanger the muffler goes on? If so, I know, but it wouldn’t fit the other way. At least not without some serious bending. I double checked which side of the hanger the pipes hang from near the rear brake lever, and that was correct. Regardless, I’m more or less fine with it, the only negative, I think, is the melting of my rear turn signal housing.
