Title: anyone has a power commander for an 02 model?
Post by: DEMON on April 25, 2016, 08:14:38 AM
Just wondering if anyone in the Houston Area has a PCIII that they are not using so I can test my VTX.  My power commander (I suspect) is the reason why my VTX has some issue with the rear cylinder.  Once I unplugs it the hesitation went away... before I buy a replacement power commander I would like to do a quick test to make sure this is my issue. (I'm 95% sure).  If you have a power commander that I can borrow for a day I will greatly appreciate it.

Can you wipe and remap it?

I've got a PC3 on my bike, Gabe. And it stopped firing one cylinder a while back. I don't remember which cylinder died but it happened on 288 while I was heading home one day. I just unplugged it and the problem went away. I never replaced it because the 1800 runs away from Connie's 1300.  :pot:

mine is kind of doing the same thing... the rear cylinder stops firing for a moment then kicks on...

I would definitely remove the PC until I had a replacement.  Heck, that VTX doesn't need help, the stock engine will overpower the clutch already.

that's about what TTS got on their bike with the supercharger.   the pipes I got are not the best but I hope to be on the ball park... mine made 138 hp and 122tq with the rear cylinder cutting in and out and the clutch slipping some.  I have the ignition module for the PCIII so I can change the timing and increase the RPMS to a higher red line, the new PCV  includes that feature. 

what clutch are you running?
