I'm looking to everyone here who has a Power Vision tuner mounted on their handlebars. I'm wondering what type of realtime information you are displaying. Right now I have the screen with 4 smaller windows and am displaying head temp, current gear selection, overal fuel economy and a tripometer. I guess I'd like to know what everyone else displays and what the reasoning is for it. I have some idea what different things are for but I'd like to know more. Any feedback would surely be appreciated.
I have four digital gauge panels programmed on mine with no analog gauges since I can't read them in sunlight. On one six-gauge panel I have ET, TP, average mileage, instant mileage, miles since reset, and gallons used--black with white text. On a second six-gauge panel I have the same gauges with darker text (orange) for night riding. On a four-gauge panel I have ET, TP, and Lambda (from wideband sensors). On a third I have TP voltage, MAP voltage, battery voltage, and MAP--but only used this one recently for troubleshooting a suspected bad TPS, subject to change.
If my bike is out of my sight I always remove the PV. I just unplug it and it pops right out of the holder. I had an IPod stolen from my handlebars so not taken any chances.
I have 6 gauges showing and I change the around
Intake air temp
Gear
Fuel used
Fuel mileage
TP
Now I can't remember the last one
I like this idea but I am a little concerned about unplugging the PV a lot might cause premature wear to the connections
Wish it had some type of quick disconnect
Maybe just being over cautious
I use the six digital gauge panel. I put VE front, VE rear on top, Head temp and Trip A mpg on second row, and Spark front and rear on the 3rd row. If making adjustments to map you can tell at what point any issues occur. If it pings look and see where the VE and timing are. Makes it a lot easier to find on the map. I also note RPM from the tach. It really helps to use the temp to monitor changes to improve economy. You may improve economy at the sake of running much hotter.
