Update re ECU mapping:

We contacted the Beijing Service Center and this is what we were told:

1) The handheld reader that it uses is strictly a reader that can pull error codes off. It cannot alter any part of the ECU.

2) The Service Center said that it thought that even Jialing's Chongqing factory does not have the proper equipment to modify the ECU.

3) The Service Center said that it believes only Bosch has the capability to modify the ECU (i.e., Jialing never acquired the "mother" programs/equipment from Bosch).

4) The Service Center said that, in its experience, it finds that some ECUs work better than others, even though all ECUs are presumably created equally.

So, it seems as if Jialing puts Bosch ECUs into the JH600s as a complete black-box component without an inherent understanding of what is going on inside of them.

This complicates matters, substantially, as now there is another player on the scene.

One could reasonably argue that Bosch is at fault, for designing/providing an ECU that results in the bike operating with persistent stalling. Another argument is that Jialing, as the marketplace vendor, is responsible to the end consumer (us). Of course, "us" (the little people), do not have much hope in getting Jialing and Bosch to sort this out.

Bottom line appears to be we are up shit-avenue without a kick-starter.

We are going to try and deal with Jialing (Chongqing) later this week.
