Told PCV Not Recommended.....By Dealer

Paul, you better make sure you can run his 2012 roadster tune on your 09 classic ecu first! Wasn't there an ecu difference at some point between 09 & 12?
Better check on that
Your right the roadster has a different ecu and if you try to load it you'll get real good fuel mileage while its sitting there not running.
 
Besides I've seen bulls map and I am still not sure why his tuner shut down his L tables and just tuned with the F tables. I was curious if he had a breaking dyno or a inertia. Not sure if those are the right words as I surley am no expert.
 
I talked to a dealer about mods for my Rocket, and asked them what they do.
I bet they bolt on Triumph bits. Using the Triumph supplied tunes which can be wildly off on some bikes. My R3 ran RICH on the OEM tune.

Options
1) A Good Dyno tuner who can tune using TuneECU - thus avoiding PCV/DOBECK. This will be bespoke - to your bike and ONLY your bike.
2) A Good Dyno Tuner who can only use PCV/DOBECK - Again it will be bespoke - but you'll have to buy the addin box.
3) A PCV/DOBECK with the WideBand self adjusting option. Folk here (A special note for Hanso) can supply you with a good target AFR set - the box then does the work for you - UP TO A POINT. Itś a good option IF you cannot get to a Dyno-God. The Stock PCV maps are a joke.
4) Hours and hours and hours like Claviger

.... The rest is really just guessing.

You can of course use all the above and TuneBoy as well plus a second AFR meter and you might get withing 50mph of Scott

ime - tunes that work on one bike DO NOT always run on another - even if they have the same mod's.

The PCV does offer (as I believe does TuneBoy) one option that I like. You can map the fuel for each gear differently.

I fall in the 3rd category. No Dynos near me at all. The Techie at the dealer I bought my bike from was a BIG FAN of TuneECU for his own rides - but was honest to admit that he could NOT recommend anything other than what Triumph offers.
 
Thanks for clarifying that. And WE all think you ARE an expert! :notworthy:
You might be able to copy the tables hanso could answer that. You can always print the tables and manually produce them on your map provided the rpm cells and throttle position are the same. As for the L tables his switch over point is zero which means the ecu is not looking for anything from the map sensor except to verify its hooked up. That being said I am not sure if any changes were made at all to them tables. I kind of did the same thing to mine because of forced air and pressure above the one bar map sensor.
 
Now what the dealer said is partially right as long as you can get the ecu tuned on a dyno. I am not sure about whether or not the power commanderV with the ignition module is like live tuning with tune boy but if so that is the advantage that tune ecu does not allow. Not putting free hackware down just pointing out some of the differences.

Thanks for the info. I'd fall into that 3rd category also. I'm not to far from Carpenter but unless you're getting their work done I don't think they're to open to just doing tunes and dynos.
