Power Commander information

Would I gain anything by installing a power commander on a stock 06 Street Bob?&nbsp\\; I mainly want to smooth out the ride and thought by getting the engine to run smoother, it would lessen the buzz.&nbsp\\; Has anyone put this on a stock machine?&nbsp\\; I have checked everything that has to do with vibration on this site and everything checks out OK&nbsp\\;on my bike (no broken mounts, no gap in mounts at front, no&nbsp\\;loose fasteners, everything is in&nbsp\\;alignment).&nbsp\\; Darn thing is driving me nuts. &nbsp\\;The typical harley vibes are one thing but the buzz is&nbsp\\;not cool.&nbsp\\;

What the heck is "buzz"?&nbsp\\; I put a PCIII on mine just to be able to richen up the fuel mixture.&nbsp\\; Remember......14:7 is pretty lean.

RE: Power Commander information

the DynoJet guys will tell you that the PCIII will benefit a stock bike - it should run cooler with a richer mix.
as far as the "buzz" goes, a richer mix will not change the vibration.

If you decide to get a PCIII, call Jamie at Fuel Moto. www.fuelmotousa.com They send you the unit already programmed for your application and give you an extra year of warranty, plus free map updates if you make any changes. Sorry to sound like an infomercial, I'm just a satisfied customer. I didn't have any buzzing on my bike (just normal HD vibes), but the PCIII did seem to smoothe out the power delivery.

I did my 1000mile service and dyno run and I think my bike run a lot smoother
after the dyno.Less vibration in low and mid rpm than before the dynorun.
I got max 73.6 hp and 118,5 n-m torque on the rear wheel.
Rush slip ons,PCIII and SE airfilter.
