Default Vibration after installing PCIII

I know this sounds nuts but until today my bike had little or absolutely no vibration. This morning I installed a PCIII from FuelMoto. At first I was thrilled as **** how it ran. Later in the day though I started noticing a very definite vibration in my hands and feet when decelerating. Mostly around the 2000 RPM range.Is this possible? I did some research and found others that said something with the tuning. Or the O2 sensors which I disconnected. Hard to believe that simply adding the PCIII could have caused it.

Anyone with any ideas I sure would appreciate it. [:@]

First call the guys at Fuelmoto and tell them what it is doing. They should know the issue.

Ok...just went a test run....skip what I said about 2100 RPM's. Does not matter what RPM I am at. When I decel the vibrations start. Pull in the clutch and they are gone just like that. I actually have no idea what map they put in it. I will give them a call tomorrow AM. Took it on the freeway and just let er run and it ran perfectly. Got home from that little jaunt and checked the temps on the heads right away. 273 on the front and 279 on the back. And that is in 80 degree weather.
