Default High Idle

Hey guys, listen, I recently installed my PC-V from fuel Moto. And as of late I've noticed a few problems.

1. unusually high idle. Even after the engine warms up, she doesn't step down. To a slower idle.
2. my fuel consumption has increased. I blew past a whole tank after just 3 days of 30 mile rides.

Now I plan on callin FM and see what they can do about fine tuning my MAP. but before I do that, I was just wondering if there is something I could do till then.

I recommend as the first step checking the throttle position settings with the PC-V software and making sure the closed throttle is reading 0%. You will connect to the PC-V with the USB cable, open the software and turn the igntion and start switch on and note the %throttle on the RH side of the screen. If needed this can be reset under Calibrate/Throttle postion. If you need any help just give us a call and we are here to help.

What a great guy! You take care of the people they will come back. You can't buy PR like this! Nice to know that great people are the rule not the exception.
