ThunderMax learned fuel adjustments: what to review before using AutoMap
Compare learned fuel corrections across similar rides before deciding whether to write them into your ThunderMax map.
Learning and writing are two different steps
ThunderMax’s AutoTune module can learn fuel adjustments while the bike runs. AutoMap uses those learned adjustments to rewrite the map and incorporate changes into the fueling curves. Open the TMax Control Center to review what the module has learned before you decide to use AutoMap.
A learned correction tells you where the system has adjusted fuel. To understand why it did so, consider the base map, the bike’s hardware and what you were doing during the ride.
Make the ride-to-ride comparison useful
- Record the base map and your current setup, including the cam, injectors and exhaust. ThunderMax’s base-map instructions use those details to narrow down the selection.
- Mark which operating areas you actually visited. Compare stretches of steady riding at a similar RPM and load after the bike is warm.
- If a correction changes substantially between comparable rides or appears after exhaust or sensor work, investigate the setup and check for faults before writing map changes.
Save a baseline and share the evidence
Keep a copy of your current map and a dated screenshot or notes on the learned adjustments. If you use AutoMap, record when you wrote the revised map, then repeat a comparable ride. On the forum, include the before-and-after readings and the conditions so another rider can follow what changed.
