Just got my pc3 in from fuelmoto. Probably wont get a chance to put it in till this weekend. I had Jamie premap it for me. I was just wondering howgood his mapsare. What if anything I should expect to change.

 

I put mine in from Jaime and was only able to get 20 miles in before the snow in a shakedown run to seat the piston rings and test my build. I had no pops on decel or anything. Now mind you I don't know what the plugs look like, etc. so I don't know if it is lean or not. I think his maps are pretty spot on. Others have said they have gotten maps that were way off. I plan on getting mine on a dyno in when I get 500 miles on the build. Best bet is to get a dyno anyway to fine tune it.

 

he was right on with mine, but my buddies for 07 was off powercommander was better for the 07.

 

Mine was very good but better with a dyno.

 

I asked for the cruise range to be leaned for mileage, and I've leaned it even more in small increments. That range is 2k-3k at 5-10% throttle, and I've got all values set to "2" in that range. I've heard some minor detonation when hot at roll-on lately, so I'm going to richen the values for 10% throttle to a value of "4" soon, and will go higher if necessary. Will leave values at "2" for 5% throttle unless I see a heat problem, but so far oil temp stays at 150° in these cool air temps (45-65°) while moving, up to 180° when air temps increase or in heavy traffic. Changing to Royal Purple 20w50 over 20w50 fossil oil (break-in only) reduced oil temps by about 10°. Installed oil cooler early on, but it's thermostat doesn't kick in 'til 185°. If necessary I'll install a second cooler in series with the first.

Overall, performance is very good, and I'm happy with the map.

I also leaned the "take-off" range between 0 and 2k rpm at 10-20% throttle. Basically, I'm experimenting a little at a time and am on my sixth change now. Am keeping all maps in case I need to backtrack. I have no hesitation problems like some are complaining about, and the minor start delay isn't a big deal to me.

Mileage is 35-38mpg in city driving with frequent cold starts, and 45-48mpg at 55-65 cruise. I don't see city mileage increasing much by adjustments, but should increase as air temps rise in the coming months. If I can get 40mpg in city, 50mpg at slow cruise during Spring thru Fall, I'll be happy. Have not checked mileage at interstate speeds yet (>70mph).

After installing the PCIII and connecting to your computer, be sure to set 0% and 100% throttle. When in that sub-menu, just click on "Reset" and blip the throttle quickly to 100%. It will set both values.

 

Jamie's map was very close. Dyno tune did not result in great gains with Jamie's map as a starting point.

 

Like others have stated, each bike is different. FM map may be good, may not be. DJ maps, same thing.
Best bet is find a good DJ Tuning Link center and get a custom map.

 

been looking for a good dyno place somewhere around here and seems most place sent their work out. Might wait and see what lies ahead for vacation this year and hopefully ill pass someplace worth taking it to.

 

have an 07 ultra with pc111 from fuel moto. she rocks!

 

Kinda hesitant about installing a PCIII ordered from Fuelmoto after all the neg stuff I been seein in these forums but I must say after installing and putting a few miles on seems to be right on, I'll check fuel mileage later and read the plugs for a better idea. maybe a dyno this summer....07 RG 2" Rush and SC AC, HD stage 1 and 903 done...sounds and runs much better.....hit the switch and then start, fires right up, no hesitation...may go to 2.25 baffle for a little more bark...
