The best place to sell your Power Commander is ebay. The forum members are a little more savvy than the average rider, and usually want the latest technology. List it with a starting price of 75 bucks, ( buy it now at 125 or so ) with your money back guarantee that it won't be DOA. Make sure you list the model number and state that fitment will be the responsibility of the purchaser, and what year and model bike it came off of. It'll sell, but you have to be realistic about what it's worth. I seldom pay more than half retail for any used part, and generally electronics are even less.

I'm not sure if making a post asking if they are junk will help you sell it.

Just sayin.

It would be nice if folks would read a little more, considering all of the information that is on this site, before they just start yappin'.

Here is one thing I can guarantee. If you get your equipment from Jamie at Fuelmoto and have him load his map then the PCIII will do you well. There are a lot of options out there. Jamie knows his stuff and will make sure your bike is right!

Ha! Nice, lionsm13, could not agree more!! However, it certainly can get overwhelming to search/research and hash-through everything...but yeah.
