Hi there everyone I am wondering if any you guys can give me some advice regarding the "Power commander" or equivalent for my Busa 2010 model?
Before I go any further, my bike is a 2010 Busa with 2500km on the clock and is stock standard mechanically EXCEPT I do have a K & N race filter, Yoshi TRC carbon pipes.
My first question is : With these addditions does the original management system able to cope and provide the correct fuel mixtures at ALL speed ranges???
I do understand that with emission control lean mixtures are the norm and it worries me that running lean (now even more so with these mods??) I may be incurring some future engine damage or even perhaps internal overheating (not apparent as gauge seems to be working OK). The other thing I have noticed is that at low rpm my bike misbehaves a little (not really too bad but noticeable) and runs what I might describe as "a hairy goat", however when you twist the throttle I have no problems with response whatsoever, its only at low rpm and high gears that I seem to notice this more. Also when following traffic slowly in high gears low rpm.
So...after all that, can someone experienced tell me whether or not a "Power Commander" or other fix this problem and whether thats the way to go?? Is there any other brand/device as good or better to remedy the above??
I am also not that happy knowing my bike has the speed , so if this is the remedy for my problem above, will this unit also bypass the speed restriction??
I am hoping that I can "kill two birds with one stone" however my priority is fixing the apparent leaness of the engine, and secondary hopefully absolving the speed restriction in the process.
Finally, if indeed I need to install a unit can these be installed by the layman, i am mechanically minded.
Thanks guys so much in advance.!!!! I am quite new to the forum and read it often and thankyou to everyone here for all the helpful information!!
Cheers
Jeff
