Diagnostics, logging and tuning for Buell DDFI motorcycles
XBTune reads, logs and tunes Buell DDFI ECMs: the 2003-2009 XB9 and XB12 (DDFI-2, DDFI-3), the 1999-2002 tube-frame bikes (DDFI) and factory race ECMs, over Bluetooth (BuellTooth and other SPP adapters) or a USB serial cable.
Free and open source: no price, no ads, no account. It identifies the ECM, reads and saves the EEPROM, shows and logs live data (with an optional Innovate LC-2 wideband), reads trouble codes and runs tests, edits tunes offline, auto-tunes the fuel maps from your logs, and writes tunes to the ECM. Remote tuning lets a tuner work on your tune over the internet, end-to-end encrypted, with only the permissions you give. Tests, resets and writing to the ECM are locked until you unlock them in Settings; every write makes a verified backup first and is read back.
WARNING: a bad tune can damage your engine. Check every change before writing it. XBTune comes with no warranty (GPL-3.0); you are responsible for what you write to your ECM.
After installing, connect the interfaces it needs:
sudo snap connect xbtune:bluez
sudo snap connect xbtune:raw-usb
sudo snap connect xbtune:removable-media
Then open XBTune from the app menu, or try the command line:
xbtune.cli doctor
xbtune.cli scan
xbtune.cli info --bt 00:11:22:AA:BB:CC
xbtune.cli info --serial /dev/ttyUSB0
