Default How can I tell if my ecu is tunable?

My bike has some sort of aftermarket ecu in it that is quite large in size, how can I tell if it is tunable? I'm guessing it is because of all the mods that are done to the bike. When I get home, I'll post up some numbers and info off of it.

I guess it has to be. I'm assuming a replaceable eprom.
As you are probably thinking, you need to find out what ECU it is and then find the right person/tools to be able to view and change the current 'tune'.

I didn't get to taking any pictures today, but I looked at it again and it has a sticker on it with this info.

Mellinimoto
Ocala, Florida
phone number starting with 325 area code I believe.

So, it appears that this ecu was tuned by this company in FL, or it is a unit that they sell individually.

Ok, so its Mellimoto from Ocala, FL - they are a Ducati dealership there. Not sure how my bike was tuned by them, it was owned by a guy in Ohio, this place in Florida must've tuned bikes or sold aftermarket ecus?
