I have successfully tuned my KTM 990 adventure with PCV and Autotune. The bike is a whole different experience. One tip that would help everybody to tune faster their bikes is to use a BASE map that is as close as possible to your particular setup. I mean if you have Akrapovic exhaust or added an aftermarket air filter that restricts less your air intake make sure you use a fuel map that is as close a match to these particular add-ons...
its mean this will auto tune the vehicle’s fuel and air mixture based on the setting we create to the device setting after specified time or temp and no need for applying a long tirm map if i get the desired mix . thanks alot for the help
Great products and great video. The question is, with all this throttle by wire bikes nowadays, when dynojet can come up with a power commander to match physical throttle position (by hand) with the throttle bodies?
What I haven't checked yet is how's my fuel economy's affected. Are there any generic "rule of thumb" tips that could help me achieve a secondary map (i've also have the handlebar optional switch) to get optimum consumption on longer trips? thanks for your time and effort...
Hi, I have PCV mounted on my 2005 FLHTC. I try to record J1850 data via "Harley ECM Data" function, I have it enabled, got correct gages on but there are zeros only. Is something wrong?
Question please: With Autotune enabled it is making live adjustments and recording changes on trim table. If you turn ignition off and back on it will still remember and apply previously learnt trim adjustments? Does this mean if you turn Autotune setting off it will revert back to base map, but still keep observed trims in memory if you decide to turn Autotune back on and not have to start over? That is unless you decide to commit the Autotune identified trims to base table, in which case even with Autotune turned off, the A/F ratios will remain correct as the learnt trims are now part of base map, right?
So, how is all of this a big improvement over something like SmartCarb, which hopefully will come out with a 4 stroke version someday soon. EFI seems like a PITA, a POS.
I have some trim values that are in the 30's, but only in 1 or 2 cells. Could it be from letting my bike decel while still in gear? Basically using the engine to brake.
Hello. I have installed the PC5 and Autotune to my ZX10R 08. Everything is working fine ..BUT!! the AFR cells are all 0 as described in your video. This means that my autotune will not tune those cells...What do I have to key in to all those cells??? Or is there a chart which I can download?? Thanks for your help.
Is it mean that every times I need to tune my pcv5 using the auto tune I have to put it in dyno or take the bike for a ride then come back to send the value to the pcv5 main table? Is it mean this thing (auto tune)not happen until taking the bike in dyno or for a ride and ride to the maximum speed and rpm to get full table? Finally do I need to do this again on different weather condation and attitudes and temperatures? I mean the auto tune table will created passed on the temp and attitudes?
I download the Powercommander software. But when I connect the laptop to the Power commander with the USB it does not read anything. Am I doing something wrong? I have a stock intake and Basanni Pro Tune exhaust.
Hi My bike is a KLV (V-strom) and with PC5 it as solve some "puffs" issues but isn't perfect yet. If i add a autotune and just do what you show us on video, the bike it will work properly every day after?
***** Hi again. A strange issue comes up now. Engine don't start properly and shuts off immediately. It seems that just one cylinder is running. And smells too much gasoline. Then I've unplug PCV and it's all ok with the bike So now I don't know whats happen. If I did some wrong table numbers or PCV simply dead. I'm gonna try do a PC reset and then plug it again. What do you think about that?
Hi. I havent seen any of ypur videos using map per gear. Is there a reason? Is one map better in your opinion or should I stick with my map per gear setup.
I have a 2013 gsxr 750. I just installed a pcv and autotune. On the afr table after 14.5k ish the values are zero. My bike revs out to 16k ish. Is there a reason for this? Should I set the values myself? Or leave it alone?
Well, you can set the values a little bit more rich to protect the engine at that high RPM range. It all really depends on what the motor wants though. Should have a mechanic tune your power commander. Although, you could read up on air-fuel ratio theory just in case. Odds are though that they want to leave the high RPM load to the base map so that there is less chance for glitches that can break your engine. When in doubt, leave it
I'm tuning my bike and I replaced its throttle bodies for smaller ones. I suppose my fuel map is completely messed up. Do you think auto tune with PCV can correct it? Can I track all changes made by autotune (And transfered to base map) in a way I can use the best autotune map as a base map in other engines with the same mods (And PCV installed)? I mean, if I want to sell this map (recipe) later?
Has anyone tried this stuff on a Gen3 KLR? Thus is all I've found so far: Bad news: DynoJet's Power Commander KLR tune does not resolve the mid-rpm fuel cut issue. Also, changing the fuel values (from 0 to 1) on 0% throttle for 3k - 7.5k RPM and it made no difference. I had a feeling this would happen. The DynoJet is a piggy back module. The ECU knows nothing of it. Good News: Definite 'seat of the pants' power increase! Pulls much better in the mid range while maintaining smooth control for the slow stuff. Looking at the maps, they achieved this by bumping up the timing advance values in the mid range. They made minimal changes to the fuel map. I'd compare the change to hitting the 'sport' button in your car or tow/pull button in your truck. -- Power Commander I don’t have one but those that have tried them on bikes in general say 1 to 2% increase. So .4 to 1.8 horsepower. Barely noticeable. The big bore kits seem to be the only thing that pumps up a KLR. I have two 2022 KLR’s both with power commanders. One has a Yoshi slip on and one has stock exhaust. Big improvement on both bikes but the Yoshi in my opinion gained at least 10% more. Much more throttle response and the added ability to pass cars on highway by just rolling the throttle instead of a requiring a down shift. Also a noticeable reduction in engine vibration at 60 to 70 mph. The engine just runs smoother. Definitely worth the money especially if your already adding a slip on exhaust. If you add the PC to your stock exhaust it comes with a map ready for that exhaust. You’ll notice a quicker throttle response and a bit more horsepower. Add a slip on with the PC and the improvement over stock is significant. Hopefully soon, PC will have a map specifically tuned for a few different slip on exhaust options. Either way, the PC is a great upgrade. Re-Flash The ECU Or Aftermarket Tuner Most modern bikes have an engine control unit (ECU), a small computer chip that controls (and much of the time strangles) various aspects of the bike’s performance. That chip is factory-programmed to comply with emissions and fuel requirements, but lucky for you, it can be remapped/re-flashed to uncork performance. An ECU (re)flash involves changing the stock onboard programming with a new tune usually resulting in good power gains (depending on your goals). But if you’re always changing parts on the bike (exhaust pipes, etc.), an ECU flash is probably not for you. Also, if done incorrectly your bike will suffer, so make sure the grease monkey doing the work knows the lay of the land. Or you can go with an aftermarket fuel/power tuner (like a Power Commander or Vance & Hines FuelPak) to adjust those stock settings. Broadly speaking, tuners come in two flavors: plug-and-play units designed for stock or lightly modified engines, and those that can be programmed to add more fuel or air and tweak other settings at different ranges to make more power to meet a highly tuned engine's needs. If you've slapped on a new pipe, you'll definitely want a tuner to get fuel mapping brought into line. These units can be a much simpler and more flexible deal than a re-flash. Result: Unless you're piggybacking with some other change, power gains won't be much, but they'll improve overall rideability.

Ive just purchased mine, lets see what to do with it! :)
how to set up for a turbo, i cannot find it in there
That would be pretty challenging, as the power commander doesn't have a boost pressure table nor a maf/map input
How do I know if trimmed values are correct to improve engine's work?If you do not have access to dynow. What do you do?
So, how is all of this a big improvement over something like SmartCarb, which hopefully will come out with a 4 stroke version someday soon. EFI seems like a PITA, a POS.

You need a dynojet wb2
Is it mean that every times I need to tune my pcv5 using the auto tune I have to put it in dyno or take the bike for a ride then come back to send the value to the pcv5 main table?

Finally do I need to do this again on different weather condation and attitudes and temperatures? I mean the auto tune table will created passed on the temp and attitudes?
Im talking about the trim, not the target AFR.
The trim table adjusts the AFR by a certain percentage, correct or no? (I.E. -1% or 7% or 32%)
so with this it's just plug & play? No need for a dyno run?
My configure is not lit so I can click it on for auto tune?
Hi. Will there ever be software compatible for Mac?
I download the Powercommander software. But when I connect the laptop to the Power commander with the USB it does not read anything. Am I doing something wrong? I have a stock intake and Basanni Pro Tune exhaust.

Can u give me idea the best afr for 04 cbr 600 6,000-15,000 rpm.m from Philippines
so do you need to buy autotune? or is this a function within the power commander 5?
You would need to purchase the Autotune module.

psyfinger have you solved the issue with your pcv??
Can’t the autotuner tune ur bike as you go without having to apply these map changes?
No, obviously the ECU needs to read it's mapping and sensor inputs (or PC inputs)
Thanks
What is considered a "high value'?
Do u have the wb2 as well I was told the autotune only works for 80% throttle to 100% throttle .
What is the year/make/model?

Where is the app? Its been removed
Why does my afr show 655.35 after warmup . Before that shows 9.99. Sensor test shows 2 blinks at ground level which says sensor is correct.
Hi there, please contact our Tech Support at 1-800-992-4993 or through email at powercommandertech@dynojet.com
A value of 9.99 could indicate a faulty sensor or the sensor is wired incorrectly to the module.
its only goes on when I connect the auto tune
