Setting-up the PCV-AT for mileage and cooling
#81
My idea was to have the best of both worlds and use the prime cruising range (AFR) for the appropriate gear ranges...typically 4-6...leaving 1-3 as strong accelleration gears. I did read in the PVC that you must calibrate each gear....I have yet to actually do it though. I think...you get into the "calibrate gears" mode...and then free wheel the bike (on a stand) and just accellerate through the gears. Not sure why or how it works. I plan on trying it out this weekend and I'll report back to the forum (you) how it plays out.
On my bike I've tweaked the cruise-range as specified earlier, but have left 80-100% TP intact, evenly tapering the 40-60% areas. That will give you good mileage when your wrist is relaxed and full performance when you nail it, all in one map. The only reason to change anything, IMO, is to juggle mileage and cooling by changing the cruise-range values.

Thank you thank you thank you for breaking down this info on the pcv. I have changed the cams on my bike and had the same issue with the bogging from a light after the bike gets to normal temps. I placed 13.2 in the first row and raised the enrichment value +/- 12 . This cured the problem....Thanks for your good work

Thank you sir!
Excellent write up! Just recently picked up the retro PCV and AT, from FuelMoto, for my 2005 Ultra. FM is just 20 miles up the road from me and let me tell ya, great group at that shop. Just to be sure, when the trim values change, are they affecting the loaded map, while riding (on the fly), or only after you accept them and save the map?

they are affecting your base map so the combination of the base map and the trims equal what you are running. If you accept your tim values you just rewrote your base map to equal what the combination was. So now you base map is new and your trim from here forward will be from the new base map. Make sense?
