It seems like my 2010 RK does not fire as quickly since my FuelMoto Stage 1 install; PC-V, SE air cleaner, 4" dyno tuned slip-on's. Anyone else notice this.

 

Get ahold of Jammie and he will tweek your map if need be.
Just food for thought.

 

+1 on calling Jamie at fuel moto. two days ago I installed a PC-V mapped by him and bike runs great.

 

Don't wait for the CEL ("check engine" light) to extinguish. Turn the ignition on and start it without delay and you should notice no lag in starting.

 

Mine does the same...was going to ask the same question. A friend of mine days its the PC. One poster mentioned starting earlier...used to do that with my Kawi and it worked great...guess it works for HD too. Other bikes are carbed so still figuring out the FI do's and don't on different models.

 

I'll give that a try... I do wait for a few seconds after I turn the ignition on before I hit the starter, don't know why just do.

 

iclick hit it on the head,don't wait for the check engine light to go off,hit the starter right away and it will fire right up.

 

Yeah, its normal. The Powercommander causes it.

 

2ropes, learn all you can about what the diff tables mean in the map Jamie sent you. I took a test ride after I installed my PCV and I knew it wouldnt do right from the start. There were a lot of advanced tables in the map which had a negative effect on my pinging problem. Advanced timing will make the bike run sluggish. I took the map he sent me and started tweaking the ignition section. I also changed a few of the fuel tables in regards to some poppong on deceleration and its almost perfect. You first need to learn everything and anything you can. Subscribe and read every thread on tuners etc. Its not hard and you can adjust it yourself.

 

Don't wait, as there's no need to do it. Without getting into technical details, which I don't fully understand, the PCV gets its power from the ECM, and if the bike isn't started immediately it causes an interruption in the power circuit which causes it to reboot. That takes a second or two before it is funtional, enough to make it obvious the bike isn't starting as quickly as it did before.

I used the quick-start method when I had the PCV and it always started instantly. Try it and give us a shout back.

Tucci has it right that you should read about how the unit works and be willing to tweak the tune if necessary. There are a number of good threads here you can use for reference. Save the map files prior to altering them, as that way if you screw-up you'll have a back-up.
