Just put a deposit down on a 'normal' 300 EXC TPI as I can't find a 6 Days.

Should be here in two weeks.

Is the 'map' switch worth fitting, I know it only alters the ignition not the 'map', on my old 2008 300EXC you could hardly tell the difference.

Anyone on here know if there is any noticeable difference between the two settings?

If its a 2018 it only changes between two ignition curves. Not worth buying in my opinion.

On the 2019 it is different, it changes between maps instead of ignition curves.

Thanks. Look forward to seeing what you think.

How will I 'know' which version of map is in the ECU, my bike is coming from Premier bikes but is still in Austria at the moment, hopefully getting to them the back end of next week or the beginning of the week after.

Won't the ones coming out the factory this week be loaded with the latest map or is that wishful thinking??

Here we go, got that from a KTM/HQV dealer. 2019 TPI 300's can have two maps installed which you can change with the map switch. Same applies for 2019 HQV's.

Thanks for info, I will now get a map switch sorted.

I don't suppose you have a picture of that whole page?

In the paragraph above I think it is describing the sport map, but would like to read the whole thing if possible?

On the Welsh I switched between map 1 & 2 on my 300....have the sports racer map loaded. Did I feel much difference....yes, enough to calm the bike down for the tighter test / when getting a little more tired, or on the checks I wanted to conserve energy, so for me 100% worth having
