I think of it more like a carbureted tune. Not really utilizing the best of both worlds that the PV allows but it does run well, apart from the decel pop.

You really need to find a tuner that has a clue if this is how your bike is set up.

installed headers 3 times since and its still had the same issues, new gaskets each time. Im hesitant to think its that. i tried the various flame and gas tests to see if I could find a leak but havent.

Also check for leaks wherever there are clamps, like where the mufflers attach.

Default Unplugging cord from unit.

I know this a stupid question. How do I unplug the cord from the unit? There is the little lock tab. I pull it up but cannot get plug to come out. I don't want to mess it up. Once plug is plugged in it can't be in there permanent?Help.

Push down on the lock tab while pulling the cable out of the PV.

Default min map kpa

While doing autotunes do I have go into settings and change the min map kpa screen to 30 each time or does it remain set to 30 if I load the results from the autotune.

Thanks in advance.

Rather than a lot of words early in a Sunday morning - watching and following this vid should give you the answer. Follow the steps exactly eg remember the export action...

Thanks for the video link. I haad seen it before but I watched it again to make sure I understand.

What I had done is go into autotune settings and raise the min map kpa to 30 as recommended by Fuel Moto. I completed my 1st autotune and saved it and reflashed my ecm to try it out.

Now when I go to autotune again and load the results from the 1st session so I have to go into settings again and raise the min map kpa to 30 each time or does it remain increased.

I hope this was understandable, sometimes the computer gets in the way of what I'm trying to say. lol

Oh and in case it matters it's on a 14 RK.

No worries Computers both help and hinder I think. If fuel moto gave suggestion, would follow it. I believe each time you select a tune to run autotune you may have to set the min kpa or at least check it’s where it should be I don’t know why is necessary and if it only for AT purposes. I can guess at both but if you bought from FM you have their pro knowledge available which is better than my hobbyist experience. Good luck and let us know what you learn
