Wanted: Power Commander for 2008 B-King

[imdying]

Start at the start mate... what are you trying to achieve? That'll dictate which option is best for you. If you're planning on running multiple maps, or logging data, or fitting nitrous or forced induction, for example, then that makes your options list a lot smaller.

What about the Ashburton Dyno??? I think its at the Honda dealer but could be wrong

[phoenixcustom]

Right lets start at the beginning, i have recently bought a b king which has had some yoshi cans fitted. All seems ok ish apart from it spluttering and not pulling cleanly in the lower revs and it does not seem to want to go as it should, shutting off and putting throttle back on also causes un clean acceleration .
Basically this bike with these cans should pull nicely at any revs without any hesitation, that is basically what i want, i dont want to put nos or turbo it well untill i have at leaset paid for the bike.
I have contacted honda country in ashburton and those are the guys who are suggesting a power commander, and also if not near on $700 to set up with a the teka.
I just want to get as much horsepower and clean throttle response as possible, not a lot to ask really.
Cheers Nathan

ask your local suzuki dealer if they have a 'yoshi box' it can do very basic fuel adjustments on suzuki ecu.

very strange that some slip on cans has caused that sorta problem with the bike.

WHen was last serviced?

Go and see this bloke who has a TekaTuner
Peter Fenton. (TripleR Racing) Just around the corner from Sportzone, ask at sportzone and they should be nice and tell you where to go.
And if you are up this way, Ray Clee, myself and Haldanes have the latest Teka tuner. (Ray and I have dynos as well)
cheers

Ok, that's easy then. If you just have an off idle splutter that you need correcting, then a TEKA tune will do all you need. It'll take less than an hour, and the cost will reflect that. Sportzone have one, and at least one of their techs has been to a Suzuki training day to learn how to use it correctly. I dare say that a lack of power isn't a problem on the B-King, so not much to be gained from putting it on a dyno; you're only talking about a subtle tweak to the low load adjustment. They'll know what to do, they'll have done it before.

Not too unusual for an injected Suzuki to have a slight 'cough' off of idle in about the 3500-4500 range when fitted with race style cans. Mostly noticeable when putting around town, going around intersections etc. The ones I've experienced ranged from mildly annoying to a little dangerous (cough makes the bike 'drop' into the corner as the drive line isn't holding it up any more).

Thanks all for the advise, bike has only done 6 k so should not need anything done as far as servicing the ignition/spark side of things. i Have now contacted Peter Fenton who as give me a straight forward answer and has said he can sort my bike out for me tuning it up on his dyno.
So thanks everyone for there input and hopefully soon i will be able to tell you all how good my B king is going.
Cheers
