ORIGINAL: crackercap
...okay how do you determine what map you have or can you, also the throttle positions are 3 and 100, is this okay you think. The idle runs about 2000 until warmed up and then it settles in at about 950 to 1000.
Any other quirks I need to know? Many thanks again
There is a notes section below the map. This typically has which map you have (at least for the canned maps).

2000 rpm seems high to me. It could be your 0% throttle setting needs to be set.

Really no quirks, unless something just does not seem/feel right.

I just got done setting my throttle I used this method
1 started PC111 program
2 made connections with usb
3 turned bike to run but did not start it
4 opened the set throttle tool
5 hit reset
6 opened throttle and held it at full till it leveled out
7. let throttle return to close verified # was at 0%
8 hit ok on LAPTOP
9 rotated throttle and verified the position moved on the screen and control unit ( can't wait to run it )

Numbers after resetting
closed 7616
current 7622
open 29368

If you are checking the MAP with the 9v battery and it says no MAP is loaded, it is likely a weak 9v battery. The PC sucks the life out of them quickly.
