Working With Diagnostic Data Cable & Software

[SpudRider]

Capturing log files at idle, and over a short test run, is an excellent idea.

How do you physically set up the computer and cable for recording log data during a test ride? I assume you remove the pillion saddle, and run the data cable into the trunk, which contains the computer.

Do you cushion the computer with foam during the ride. Can you close the laptop cover, or do you need to keep it slightly ajar with some foam, et cetera?

The log i did before of a quick ride I turned off the bit to shut down or hibernate the laptop with the lid shut and bunged it in the top box.

I think there was enough room between the bike and the pillion seat to run the cable with the seat on
