I installed a PCIII with a pre-programmed map from Fuel Moto about a month ago. The thing is I haven't even looked at the software yet because I have a Mac not a pc (IBM).

My question is I haven't set my closed and open throttle positions yet, how important is it to do this, and am I going to screw anything up? The bike runs great but just want to make sure I don't run into any problems till I borrow a friends laptop.

 

it is important... it will relieve some popping on decel and your idle will change.&nbsp\\; but i dont think you are going to mess anything up, but i wouldnt want to chance it.&nbsp\\;

 

do any of your neighbors have a pc???&nbsp\\; if you can pull it up to a window and get the 5 foot cord to reach your bike you could set it in under one minute.

 

Thanks Shimmon. I don't have any popping on decel now but yeah I'll try to get that set.

 

i only had to adjust the closed position.&nbsp\\; Open was spot on.

 

Isn't it funny how owning a 2006 or later harley generally means also owning a laptop? Wonder if Bill gates is in cahoots with the MoCo. lol

 

I will NEVER by a pc laptop! It's bad enough I bought an Xbox.[8D] Maybe I can tune it through there[sm=alcoholic.gif]

 

Actually what you mean is you'll never run MS Windows. I'm a tech so... but Macs are way overpriced. What makes your mac so much better than a laptop running XP or Vista? Just asking. You've already been inconvenienced because you run a mac and a lot of software isn't available for it.

 

Your 0 throttle position is probably OK.&nbsp\\; They run rough at an idle if they are set wrong.&nbsp\\; 99% shure that it is OK.&nbsp\\; If you can borrow a laptop with the PCMDR software on it that would be the best.&nbsp\\; Throttle position is on the right hand upper screen should say 0 at an idle.&nbsp\\;
