Why flash a Benelli ECU?
The TRK 502 is one of the best-selling adventure bikes in Europe, and like the rest of the Benelli range it runs a conservative Bosch calibration: lean at small throttle openings, with a soft response. A reflash smooths the pick-up, matches the fuelling to an exhaust and sets the bike up for the way you ride.
Benelli ECU families
- Bosch MSE6.0: the TRK 502, TRK 552, TRK 702, Leoncino 500 and 502C.
- Bosch MSE8.0: the Panarea 125.

- Connect a Tactrix OpenPort 2.0 or CANable to the diagnostic connector.
- Read the ECU and save the original file.
- Edit the maps or load the file from your tuner.
