Power Commander power graph print outs. - SV650.org

23-11-06, 09:39 PM

Hello chaps, just got my bike de-restricted at the weekend and i must say, what a difference it makes! One thing i did notice was quite a substatial flat spot/lack of power between 5500RPM and about 7000rpm. Would the installation of a power commander sort this little problem out? I'm not looking for extra power, just maybe the flat spot smooted out a tad.

If any body has any print outs before and after a Power commander has been fitted i'd like to have a look at them. I've got a K5 pointy. Thanks a lot for taking the time to read this, Jim

Jim - I have never bothered with a PC on my SV1000 - I did however have the throttles balanced and a custom remap done this year by Steve Jordan Motorcycles - that made a lot of difference, and was a lot cheaper than a PC3

I didn't realise that was an option, worth looking into by the looks of it. Cheers for that.

A PC3 can be purchased , installed on your SV, deinstalled and then resold later if you so wish.
Just something to bear in mind ..

can the standard ecu be remapped then?

i'd assumed you had to pay the £300 (or whatever - too much IMO) for a PC to get the mapping sorted.

nope the standard ECU can be remapped.

Alot cheaper than getting a PC3 fitted and has consistantly shown to produce more power thnby using a PC3

Exactly what I did too. Now, no flat spots anywhere.

where would i go to get my standard ECU remapped?

My understanding of the Steve Jordan solution was that it increased or decreased the fuelling across a range of revs so if it gets rid of a flat spot in 1 place this is at the expense of performance in another area.

Is this correct?

I thought it was purely a solution for getting your bike to run with an aftermarket race can and filter and not a solution for optimising the fuelling.
