Had a glitch on the powercommander that just wouldn't go away, cruising at 2-4000 revs the bike would just cut for maybe 1-2 seconds and come back again. On the dyno I could see the Powercommander didn't know what it was doing at about 8% throttle, the duty cycle was all over the place and the tacho was doubling up and halving, really weird stuff. changed the powercommander for another one, its not as bad but still there. So I'm now trying the Tuneboy. Got it communicating after about a week of Laptop glitches and will be mapping this week. Looking forward to opening up the secondary butterflys early , this should really pick up some torque, giving it a few more revs should see over 250bhp at the wheels. Will keep you informed of how she goes.
 
be nice to see how the super charger fits onto the bike - have you and pictures of the kit on and off the bike ?
 
I would think with a blown application you would WANT them in 1/2/3 !! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Hombre, you sicko, he'll have to start in third gear and "side step" the clutch off of the the rev limiter!! :shock: :shock: :shock:
 
You guys never over carburreted an engine? If you dump the throttle before the revs get up you won't get sufficient velocity to fill the cylinders and the motor will have a tendency to bog down. That is why the throttles don't snap open.

I agree that can be a use for the secondaries, like the vacumn assisted 4 barrel carbs of our youth. (Those of us that played with 'big' V-8's)
But IMHO the secondaries on the Rocket only have merit to limit wheelspin and probably aid in emissions control. Mine are in a box on the workbench. Wide open from a roll at idle does NOT have any bog. :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
Emailed Wayne a few days ago but he has not replied, it seems a few guys have this problem :? I had to put the Dynojet Powercommander back on for a Magazine shoot, its not good to have the bike less than perfect. I want this TB to work but it doesn't like the big injectors, Wayne should be able to solve the issues but he needs to respond.
 
I think with the rocket being such a low compression engine they swallow ****loads of air so u probably dont need the secondaries, just my thoughts.
