It has different symptoms on different ECU's. Not everyone experienced the surging. I know cranking the throttle didn't do anything for me. When I would stop to cycle the ignition the bike would stall. It took as little as 1500' to cause it. It wasn't caused by high altitude as much as a large change in altitude. For me it wasn't that large as I was experiencing it on the elevations changes in West Virginia.
I guess that explains why I can catch up to you, every now and then...

No. I had the ECU done before I met you. You only catch up to me, because I slow down to make sure you are still with me!

Well, the UPS man dropped this off this morning.

A easy way to tell if a Yamaha part is new... Check to plastic bag... See if there are extra staple holes, if there is it has been opened, who knows what your getting..The ECM was sealed, and never opened. Just what I was hoping for.

Installed it this morning, 20 minutes later it was up and running.

Thanks again everyone for the help!!

Hey smitty, good going ! BTW, I take it there is no ignition immobilizer on yer bike? I say this because, up here, the key has to be "re-registered" to the new ECU code, or else nuthin gonna happen.
