Las Vegas, NV | Hi all,
My bike has a Power Commander plus the Ness Big Honkers and air intake. I went in for my 500 mile service and they performed the recall.
Before the service, the bike would pop a lot when it was cold. It cleared up after a couple of miles. During the service, they did flash the ECU. Now, when it's cold, the popping is almost totally gone and it runs like a champ, cold or hot.
My question is this: I thought the Power Commander would override any ecu settings. If this is the case, why did flashing the ECU with the recall update clear up the popping? Should I tear the bike down and prove the Power Commander is even hooked up??

Salt lake city Ut. | I did not think the power commander unit was availible for the Vision. The flash should change the base map of the fuel curve which in turn would adjust the usb commander #s.
IE the stock grid was -1 and the commander had a +2 if the new flash added fuel in that spot the net quantity of fuel would be increased.
Do you have a part number for the power comander they put on your bike?
I want one. |

Orlando, FL | Side car has it right. If you used the PC 5 (and one IS available, just check the PC web site) it just add's and subtracts from the stock ECU base MAP. I say base MAP as the autotune function of the stock ECU is disabled when the PC 5 is added (to have autotune with the PC 5 you must buy the wide band PC Autotune add on). So, changing your stock ECU base MAP changes your overall settings (Stock ECU base MAP plus the +/- correction of the PC 5) I assume the flash update was a free-bie? |
