What''s up people! I''m new to the forum just stopping in to say hey!!! I guess my first form of business would be a power commander question! I have a power commander 3 ( USB ) it''s on my 2001 F4i..... Any tips on how to set this thing up??? I just got the bike not too long ago and the guy told me he had it set to stock, but I do have a slip on exhaust! Was wondering if I needed to maybe tweek it a bit? Was also thinking of cutting my can in half for a meaner sound, so that would probably require more tweeking? Any help or suggestions would be great!!! Like I said i''t just begining to learn about the power commander. I don''t want to touch it before I know what exactly the thing does!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS

Welcome to the board! PCIII is a wonderful thing ... lots of adjustments you can make. You will need the software and a cable to hook up to your PCIII. The manufacturer of your can should have a map you can download ... if you cut a bit off it will change things up a bit but not significantly to require a new map. For the best performance go to a shop with a dyno and have them tune it. Cost ya from $100-$200 and it will be custom to your bike alone. The generic maps are all a bit rich.
