While an O2 sensor that could rid the fuel injection glitches on the Indian Royal Enfield Classic UCE500 is still out of the equation, Royal Enfield is testing a remapped version of the fuel injection system that apparently has ironed out all the glitches from the earlier versions of the fuel injection system. But we like what we’re hearing as this could finally mark the end of all the fuel injection niggles that Royal Enfield Classic 500UCE are having to face currently.
While not many details about how exactly Royal Enfield has managed to iron out the glitches from the ECU, the fact remains that Royal Enfield has finally gotten down to do something to sort this issue in itself is a great thing considering the slow response time that Royal Enfield has traditionally been known for. Also, this remap could mean that the fuel injected version of the Royal Enfield UCE500 engined models could continue to sell alongside with the carbureted version of the UCE500 engine that could be launched very soon.
Our sources tell us that the remapped version of the ECU actually has been working very well on the models it is being tested currently with no jerking throughout the rev range, which was one issue that plagued the older crop of ECUs. With that, we hope the rich running also is sorted out with the remap as engines running too rich for too long could easily lead to hot spots in the engine head causing knocking and eventual engine damage.
Also, the only straightforward solution to carbon accumulation in the head is decarbonization, which is a job that requires opening up of the engine head and thus changing of the head gasket too. With the remapped ECU, all this can be sorted out and we hope that Royal Enfield offers to remap the ECUs of current Classic 500UCEs proactively that would do a world of good when it comes to customer satisfaction.

EFI Made Easy
Everything you need to know to take care of the system on your new EFI Royal Enfield in one short article.
Iam not surprised that RE takes a long long time to response because i know they need to get rid of their existing engineers and get better ones who have some common sense. Few days back i met an RE engineer who has a good designation. After seeing that one of the two accelerator wires leading to the fuel injector in my RE classic-500 was broken, he said, “the broken wire will make a difference to the performance of the motorcycle.”
I was silent. I usually dont prefer to speak to morons.
(the accelerator wire is supposed to pull and open the valve that controls the air flow to the engine. When the wire is released, a spring pulls the valve back to its initial position. That is how the throttle works. What the hell of a difference will it make if the opening and closing of the valve is controlled by pulling it with a single wire or with two or ten wires. BUT our RE engineer believes it will hamper performance. hahaha)
I am a simple commerce graduate. but i am sure i can lend some common sense to these RE techies.
