Any of you bunch fitted a power commander? Know you can never have enough power ?,if so did make any difference .
I know its not a ZZR 14 and build for ballistic top speed just want to get best out of the motor or do I need to sell up?

PRD

Surely enough power already....

No after coming from a blackbird.

With a power commander you should get better power delivery and a bit more BHP, it should feel much smoother through the power range, also you can get better fuel economy if set up right, best to get it set up by a good tuning Centre.

Hi Geoff
I Could have just asked you on messager did you sort your screen out ?

amongst our American cousins the general consensus is that ECU flashing is the way to go rather than a Power Commander

Recommend a remap .Had mine done and transformed the bike.He removed the speed limiter so if you can push it through the air it should reach 180mph. :police:

PRD

As a matter of interest where does one do 180 mph?

German autobahns are good for A to B.I can sit at 120 plus in comfort and click the miles off.And still be overtaken by mercs n bmws.It all works and i feel safe. Ok it can all go wrong but so can everything.Ride safe  :2guns:

I've got a pc fitted on mine and had it set up on a dyno , it does make the 6th gear have more go , but I think why people get the impression that it needs more go is that the 6th is a overdrive , which is the same as the zzr11 was , but use 3rd and 4th more and there's more than anough go , being so smooth it's deceptive power , it is a Tourer after all ,,,
