Power Commanders??

wont give you any more power (placebo effect will make you think it has)

will improve the throttle response / smoothness (after you've had it custom mapped -300 to 500$)


do the suspension instead

What he said.

I got a tuneboy remapping of my Triumph. Has fixed HEAPS of problems with throttle response and smoothness. But no real noticeable increase in power.

I definitely noticed an increase in mid range, but then, thats what I had it tuned for. It had more power everywhere...

Only realised this when I kept sliding the bike into corners from entering too fast, ie, same throttle from previous corner, I had more speed...

The other advantage is that you can have two maps (or more) if you have removable baffles. I run one map with the baffle in, and swap to another for no baffle, and it makes a huge difference (depends on bike and pipe tho). 3hp isn't much, but its the delivery, and the lack of baffle doesn't choke it as much.

Yeah, I agree with you Kiwifruit! If I was going to keep the bike for a while I'd do the rear suspension but I won't be keeping this bike. It's back to A motard After this.

get a Y-pipe from ebay. Cant remember the guy's name but he does mean 'backyard' mods to R1's and R6's - his R6 full exhaust system costs about $600NZD (modified stock can with new headers), a PCIII and an air filter gained 10hp.
