Default PCV MAP Review/Thoughts, experience

Any experienced tuners out there?

I was bored and looking at my current map stored on my computer. I had the bike dyno tuned after having Woods TW7H installed a while back to gain some more HP and torque. Since I am mostly two up and spend a lot of time in mountainous type terain the additional umphh was needed.

The bike runs great and the dyno showed right at 93HP and 101 Torque.

What I found funny is that in the tune it shows no timing advance until 80 and 100% throttle at 2000RPM up until 6500. Does the advance timing seem setup right?

Was also wondering if you think timing should be adjusted earlier on in the throttle position?

Thanks and have a good one!

My tuner didn't change any timing. Sounds like only when you are WOT do you need the advance. I did see where there is some guidance about timing to correct some issues. If your map didn't come with a change, there must be a reason. Besides, if the bike runs fine, why sweat it?
I, like you replaced the cams and then put a new map on it. It ran better but wanted to ensure all was set up right. I had the dyno done once the bike was complete. Bike runs fantastic and is cooler than before. I have a 103 with a torque cam. My dyno ran 87 Hp and 111 Torque. I have no problems in not looking for problems.

Thanks for the reply Hate-Work,

I am happy with it, was just wondering if I could squeeze a bit more out of it. Not really needed. i do not have any of my older maps as I deleted after Dyno tune.
