If you oil them the air doesn't pass through to well which causes your bike to run rich...

ive got a stepped tube hindle and a pc3r
I ran it last year for a month with no pc worked realy well
tell you the truth my pc died last year and I bought another one but havent installed it yet.
if I didnt install the PC would the bike be ok to run ? with just the K&n's and hindle ?
only reason I say this is that it left me standed last year and after all shit I hear about them failing not sure if I want to put it back in.

waht would cause the PC to fail? i'm looking at getting a (possibly shot, not sure yet) 3r to play with, and if i note common failures, who knows.. i might be able to save ppl alot of money with an easy fix (if i get that lucky to have an easy fix for it )

i had one problem with a pc3r in the 2 yrs i used one. one time i loaded a map and the ignition map copied over to the fuel map. i just loaded the map again and no problem. i switched to a usb to get the exra features, but still running 3r on dads bike. no problems so far.
