What exhaust, air filter, year of bike, and are your secondary flies removed. You first need to determine what map you need.

plug your computer with the power commander software into the pclll via the usb cable. the power commander must be powered on with the bike running or the 9v battery connected to it. in the software you can perform the open map, send map, get map functions and more. there is an info window that gives details about the map.

Go to dynojet's website and go into the support section. Search for the tutorials. They are very clear. One thing that bigdtd said that is very important - make sure the bike is RUNNING when you go to load the map or make sure you have the 9V power pack.

Maps are also at dynojet's website. Enter your bike make, model and year and find your set-up in the available maps. If your exact set-up isn't there, find one close and then take the bike to a tuner so he/she can throw the bike on the dyno and get it just right!

Hope this helps.

Don't forget to zero your throttle position.

Evil,

Please explain this. I'd like to know more about how to make sure the throttle is at 0% too. The screen shows throttle percentage. What do you do if the throttle doesn't read zero when it's completely closed? Thanks.

"For those of you installing Power Commanders, don't neglect to calibrate the Throttle Position Setting using the Power Commander software. I know a few guys who did not do this. In addition, I recently rechecked mine and found that it was not set correctly. Not sure if I screwed up the first time, played with a map and forgot to calibrate it myself, or if something changed. After calibration my decel pop was significantly reduced and in some cases didn't occur at all. Further the part power throttle response seemed to be slightly better. For those who don't know how to do this, you need to plug the PC into a laptop. You can only set the TPS when it is on the bike. Here's my procedure:

1. Plug the PC into the laptop. Install the 9V battery to power up the PC.

2. Start the bike and let it warm up and reach its normal idle. If you try to calibrate the TPS on a cold engine you will get an incorrect calibration. At this point the PC will run without the 9V battery but leave it there. It will be necessary later.

3. Open the Power Commander software. If the current map is not downloaded and displayed automatically select GET MAP.

4. With the map displayed select POWER COMMANDER TOOLS > SET THROTTLE POSITION.

4. With the bike running and the engine at idle push the "<" button to set the 0% throttle to the value read from the bikes electonic signal.

5. The following 3 second rule may or may not be applicable anymore but I still use it. You can do as you wish. Perform the following actions, in order, in a 3 second period: (1) turn the engine off using the kill switch, not the key, (2) with the engine NOT running fully open the throttle, and (3) hit the ">" button in the Dynojet software display to set the 100% throttle position to the value read from the bikes electronic signal. To insure that the Power Commander is working you have to have installed the 9V battery.

6. Start the engine and verify that the TPS readout in the DJ software is 0% at idle and that the rpm display is matching that of your tach. Turn the engine off and open the throttle fully. Verify that the TPS readout is now 100%. Close the throttle halfway and verify that the TPS readout is 50%. You are now good to go.

Note that the fuel map is a function of rpm and throttle position. If you have not calibrated the throttle position you may not be running the fuel adjustments as intended by the map. "

The map I loaded is the one for Two Brothers exhaust, flies removed, aftermarket filter. I'm running the Boz exhaust (for now), aftermarket filter and flies removed. Would I have been better chosing the Muzzy exhaust map? That map is for a Muzzy system, flies removed and aftermarket filter. I just need a short term map in there because I'm heading out to Rev'd Up Motorsports in Dekalb (Illinois) in about 3 weeks to get a real tune.
