have you guys heard of this:
I am currently in talks with my dealer to get the new GP1000 ECU for my new cannibal. I am trying to get it for free, but that is beside the point. His mechanic is telling him/me that there has been four(4) recalls on the GP1000 and the ECu 500 is better, and i should stick with it. have you guys heard of this? Can anyone confirm/deny these allagation?
any info. would be great! thanks

I am aware of a recall to replace the wiring harness with the early 1000's. Something about causing a short which could fry the ECU. Also know of the 'cold start' update to mapping of the early 1000's. Not really a 'recall'. Sounds like they are trying to get rid of you! I doubt the 500 is better, but i'm happy for now. Good luck.

The only recall was to install a jumper with some diodes into the wiring harness. Check out the Cannondale website, they have all recall and service bullitens posted so you can easily prove them wrong.
