MV ECU Question

[desmo11]

Gents,

Would any of you be kind enough to give me a run-down on MV ECU's?

I know that the initial bikes (circa 2000MY) had Marelli 1.6M ECU's, is that the case for all production to date?

Also would anyone have a STOCK MV chip that they would be willing to part with or loan to me?

Thanks!

I have a couple stock chips. Give me a call.

Until the Senna 1000 and F4 1000R which has a Marelli 5SM ECU. Here is some marketing lit on the change:


---------------------------------------------------------------------

The electronic engine management system features a series of important innovations starting

with the new Magneti Marelli 5SM system that replaces the previous 1.6M.

This system is much more compact than its predecessor and if fitted with a FlashEprom

memory unit. The 5SM phase sensor works in concert with the exhaust camshaft making sequential

injection possible. On previous generation machines, such an arrangement was unheard of. Each

cylinder has been supplied with an individual “plug top” coil with consistent improvements in terms

of engine output.

The Magneti Marelli 5SM ECU manages the widely acknowledged EBS system

(Engine

Brake System) that is fitted to MV Agusta engines for controlling torque under deceleration. The

concept is based on a solenoid-activated by-pass valve on cylinder N° 2 intake duct. The by-pass is

situated downstream from the feed throttle that has a suitably shaped air intake. This device allows

cylinder N°2 to produce torque even under deceleration (when the feed throttles are closed) thanks

to a signal sent by the Marelli ECU.

Looking at the diagram, the advantage in terms of engine braking at high and medium

engine speeds is self-evident. It is also very clear that the engine management system could allow

more demanding riders to adjust and optimise engine braking at different engine speeds to suit their

individual riding styles.

So basically all of the machines up to the 1000's came out were 1.6M? Do you know what model years this covers?

-2006. It remains to be seen if the Senna 1000 and F41000R will arrive as 07 models in the USA?



EDIT: -2006. You said 'up to the 1000's' and I want to make it clear that the standard 1000's (incl all models; mamba, tamburini, veltro, etc) also have the 16M so far.
Only the Senna1000 and F41000R have the new ECU as of yet. I think we all assume the standard 1000's will get the new at some point.
