Default PCIII - 0 throttle fuel question

I'm not happy with how my bike is running with 0 numbers in the 0 throttle column. How many of you guys have played with adding fuel to that column?

My bike seems to just "shut down" when I let off on the throttle. Makes for a jerky ride when I'm on and off the throttle alot. Anyone know what I mean?

Thanks for any help guys.
Steve

Bump - I'm living with the same thing so two of us would appreciate some suggestions. Woah (strange)... I'm a Steve too.

I had the same problem and I contacted Dynojet and they had me change the values from 0 to 25 in the closed throttle position from 2000rpms
all they way down to 6500 rpms.
Also if you installed the power commander yourself they also told me I need ed to resetthe closed throttle position with the bike running and hooked up to the computer which the instructions tell you how to do.
I did both of those things and it eliminated the problem completely.

Thanks for the help. I reset the throttle yesterday. It was at 7% when closed before I reset it to 0. I'll raise the numbers in the 0 column and see how it runs.

Any of you guys with the 07s and running a PCIII having any pinging problems? My 06 is fine but my brother with his 07. Cracks the throttle hard and it will ping on him.

Has he had the hd 903 donload? PC`III doesnt change timing on the canned maps, he might have to get it dynotuned.

I've run PC III's for quite awhile, and I always add fuel in the zero, 2%, and 5% throttle columns. I add it in increments of 1 or 2, usually as a means to tune out decel popping. Experiment a little; you'll get it where you want it.

I'm not clear what numbers you used. One guy say he put 25 in the column and you say 1 or 2. Can you give me an idea what numbers you settled on in each column? Thanks.

Gunrunner, thanks for the reply. He is just running the map that Jamie pre-loaded all the timing numbers are 0s straight across. He hasn't had the download but if he is running the PC will the download be in affect. We havent messed with any of the timing numbers as of yet it was just something he noticed after the PC install he didn't have the pinging before it was put on

If your brother's '07 was made after whenever that revised stock ECU map/download was released he's got it.
