a friend of my recently stuck a PC on his harley, along with new pipes and intake setup. when he starts it up... it runs, but at an incredibly low idle and he doesnt know how to set it up. (and neither do i).
anyone got any experience in this or tips that i can shout his way?
sell the PC before it is junk and have it tuned with a racetuner.
X2 power commanders blow have one on mine and im not a fanQuote:

so much for convincing him to sell it... he says that theres no way. oh well.
Well your friend is dumb dumb. Get it dyno-tuned
Wow, I've never seen negative comments about Power Commanders before. Why don't you guys like them? I very recently put one on my bike and I am more than pleased with the improvements it made. I don't have, nor do I plan to get, a custom tune, but the map from my exhaust manufacturer "seems" to work very well.
They seem to work better on the rockets than they do the harley crap.Quote:

Get it dyno tuned. It was the best thing i did to my bike, made a huge difference with performance and throttle responce.Quote:

UGGG yea I know this is where they started, I guess I like them as long as I am not paying for one. Especially this next year I bet they will be even more over priced with the 110th than usual. So many better options than a harley out there I don't see the appeal.
