Power comander

If I was to buy this

How much would it likely cost me to get it fitted and set up...

Just getting giddy, haven't bought anything for it for ages.. Heard people swear by them so wondering if it's worth a try.

they are quite easy to fit , its a plug and play job. Remove tank , find the fuel injectors ,unplug them , plug the PC in . you need to down load a map from the Dynojet website as to what your bike is wearing. which exhaust , which air filter . this would be a map specific for your machine.

They clear any fuel rough spots , so if your bike is running lean or rich due to the aftermarket exhaust ,the PC smooths out the fueling to make it run smoother . DOnt think you gain anything in Power and it might help the MPG a touch .

If you have aftermarket cans etc , these are great .

Hope that helps

When I had one fitted and set up on my SP it was quite costly as I remember. The fitting of it is straight forward enough it was just the dyno time spent on it and he had to put some fuel in! That was for those LBP's I had on, yours is a Scorpion right? I'd imagine that to be straight forward if you take it to the right place.

It's an excuse to spend money on your bike so buy it now, your bike needs it and will die if you don't buy it.

Fit it yourself it's not too difficult and take it to Pete Alton at OTC racing he's a wizard with a dyno and a PC
He just remapped mine and found + bhp and smoothed the throttle response out

Just had a look at otc, £40 per hour, how many hours does it generally take.. Also if I want to download a map what leads and software would I require as it comes as shown in the picture with nothing else invluded

Mine took 4 hours
