What is the purpose and limitations of the cherry bomb? I read the info on Yoshi's site but also see they offer a separate PCM with A & B maps. It's my understanding the cherry bomb unlocks the stock performance tune in the OEM PCM which is setup to work with minor air/exhaust mods such as airbox lid and pea shooter removal and the Yoshi PCM contains two maps that are designed specifically for their pipes? Is this correct? I'm just planning to remove airbox lid and arrester for now and want a little assurance the cherry bomb will ensure the bike won't run too lean. Lastly where can I buy the cherry bomb? I haven't found it on Yoshi's web site where you can add it to cart and buy online. Is it available elsewhere or do I need to call Yoshi directly?

call yosh directly.thats what i did.the cherry bomb works great with the setup you are looking to run.also alot of dealers have been ordering the cherry bomb o you might find one thee.i know gollans here in ohio ordered a bunch.the bomb will run lean with the yoshi pipe with the sparky removed but ok with the sparky in.

Out of curiosity, what did Yoshi charge for shipping?

I called Yosh and ordered mine:
$39.99 for Cherry...$6.13 for shipping...total $46.08.

The cherry bomb, is basicly a hack that fools the ECU into dumping more fuel. I didn't measure it with an ohm meter yet. I did the same as they did and ordered it direct from yosh, just call the 1-800 number on their website.

Thanks for the info. I'll call Yoshi Monday as CA is closer to Oregon then VA. Saw a few on eBay already but $10.00 is a rip IMO. I'm a tight wad ...they could probably USPS Priority mail it for $3.00.

Cernic's should have them in stock VERY soon. I know at Kyle's location for sure. The parts manager at my location said he is ordering some for stock ASAP.

so if i buy a cherry bomb,take of air lid and get a slip on with spark arrester in i will be ok.but if i take out the sparky i will be to lean.is that what i am understanding,because i dont want to buy the whole map system.

Yes you will be fine with a Slip On with the Baffle in if you run the Cherry Bomb. There isn't alot of concrete evidence yet on how much it adjusts for so it's up in the air if it will support a full exhaust system or a slip on with no baffle. If you are doing a slip on with the baffle though you might be better off just sticking with the stocker with no baffle. I hear that's a pretty strong set up.

thanks BCG i will keep the stock pipe for now with cherry and baffle out. should be fine for me for a while.

I called yosh a few days ago and they told me the cherry bomb is now shipped as part of their full exhaust system. The teck at yosh told me that the cherry bomb is all that is needed for the full system install.
