Dude, dump that POS fuelpak. I had that on my bike at one time... biggest waste of money that **** was. I got my PCIII for under $250 if I'm not mistaken, from fuel moto on Ebay. Told him the year of bike, pipes setup and his preloaded a map in the PCIII.

Best thing about the Power Commanders is that you can just pop your seat off, plug in the Power Commander to your computer and see what your bike is doing and whatnot. You can adjust the settings if need be, and if you really don't like it, you can get someone to dyno tune it for ya. Lot more room to play with when you have a PC. My bike runs PERFECT with my PC3, but I also had it custom tuned. Even the base maps are pretty close a lot of the time. Just go for it. You definitely won't regret it. If there's anything that I regret, it was trying the fuelpak first. Good luck!

What kind of Dyno #'s did you end up with?


Thanks to the OP for posting this ?,
I was torn between the FP and the PCV.
Emailed with Jamie who siad $299, which is only $50 more than the FP.
This thread is the clincher, PCV it will be.

Contact mfg. about possible adjustments to your fuel pack. I think you can tweak them a bit. If not, get the pcv. Fuel moto will be there for you. Lot of guys happy with their results and the company. Personally if money is tight, see what you can do to get what you have to work, then spend if you have to.

You could always scour ebay for a used pcIII usb. As long as you a have a laptop and/or a really long usb cable you can reload a map on it very easily.

Talked with Jamie today and I changed my order to a PCV. $20.00 more than the PC3 but I like being able to add the auto tune feature later. $293.00 for the PC3 shipped and $313.00 for the PCV shipped.

Well, I did get the Fuelpak for free from Hogrida_06. He even payed the shipping! Thats how bad he hated it, lol. It ran OK for me for a while and then just crapped it's pants one day. Looks like I'll be going through Fuelmoto. Is the PCV really that much better than the PCIII?
