Re: Can i use the European akrapovic map with my US 04 gix6?

The difference in the maps is directly related to the fuel. The fuel that is dispensed at gas stations in Europe is very different from our fuel in the states. I would recommend that you try using map 316-008. This map is for the Arata system, but should be pretty close to what you have. Let me know how it works out for you.



Thank you

yes and no. the map is designed for the european bike with catalytic converter. and the fuel difference is marginal but it does make a difference. you can use it but it will probobly make the bike run worse.
