Did you try and reset it. Can't remember if mine turned off after install, but I turned it back on via the manual and it has not turned off yet.

I will have to pay attention since it appears like it might want to stay warm for a few days. Thanks for the info!

What would probably really get things rolling would be if everyone concerned with this issue gave either Fuelmoto or PC a call tomorrow. At least we'd get some attention.

Interesting... has not been warm here tho. Mine is turned off, it's that way from the factory. So you are saying the PC V will have problems with it turned on?

You can turn it off? I guess I better read my new owners manual.
Just ordered my PC V today too.

It's like I said in the first post, with the system turned on and equipped with a PCV the engine wants to stall when you ride off after the system has shut down the rear cylinder. It didn't do that before the PCV was installed.

I guess I was a little quick on the trigger. My PCV is in the basement with my Stage 1 waiting to go on the bike. Wish I had waited a little longer before ordering, but when I ordered, everything sounded good.

I will call PC in the morning to inquire about this. If I get the same response I will be sure to get their name. I will also be sure to tell that person I WILL include them in my law suit if I get injured because I am unable to accelerate out of harms way when EITMS is functioning as designed.

This has the potential to cause serious harm, in-fact some preemptive letters from Attorneys may get their attention. I would think they could fix the problem easy enough if they really cared, guess we will see.

Also I thought Fuelmoto backed this product no questions asked???

Edited for spelling I suck at it.

Marc,
Did the tech at Dynojet (who make the Powercommander) seem to know that this was a defenite incompatability or was he sort of "blue skying" telling you to have EITMS turned off?

I have dealt with a tech guy at Dynojet named Gerald in the past and he has seemed knowledgeable and helpful. Do you know if you spoke to him? He sounds like an older guy over the phone.
