Marthy's PCV Maps

Yes, I used that one.

The last fuel bar was starting to blink when I was on about 170 miles on my trip A o-meter.

After I hit 187, the F-Trip-Ometer came on and I did 13 more miles. That's when I filled up 3 gallons.

What's the point of the f-trip

It's just a "Reserve" indicator. Back in the old days you use to swap it manually with a valve under the fuel tank. This is the hi-tech way to tell put you need fuel... lol

66ish mpg is very impressive...

 

[SampsonNation]

So I basically have 1.5 gallons left in the tank when the F-Trip comes on.


Hey Marthy, I put your Sport B map in on my Map Switch 2 position. I'm using this with the TBR. That's still okay, right?

 

[Marthy]

It's fine. Won't get 66MPG out of this one... lol You will be lucky to get low 40's, but it pull really good. I like the mid range/part throttle out of Sport RevB. Strong and smooth.

 

[SampsonNation]

That's okay, at least I have the switch .

Is that your most aggressive map?

You keep mentioning the switch, and I'd like to get one, but where do I get it and how easy is it to install? I would definitely love to be able to flip a switch from Sport to Economy. Can you switch it while the bike is running?

 

[SampsonNation]

You get it from the power commanders website. It's $30. You do have to cut the harness off it and hardwire it directly to the PC box, but they already have holes on the box ready for those wires.

You can switch the maps on the fly and it's really easy. I just plugged mine into the PC which is located in my rear seat compartment. I then just threaded the switch up to my steering column and zip tied it to the group of wires to the left of the ignition.

Per Marthy's recommendations for a touring map. I just got 200 miles on my tank after a fill up and I still had 1.5 gallon left in the tank! That means I was getting 66mpg? Is that even possible?

187 on the OD and 13 miles on the F trip.. That's 200 miles..

Can anyone verify the high mpg?

I've been scratching my head ever since I read this post. How the hell can I get 42-46MPG with this same map! So I took in consideration my trunk, saddlebags and windscreen. So I had a couple of hours to kill tonight (wife is working) So I jumped on the bike I went out there to drive 130 miles just because I wanted to double check one thing...

On the last bar, once it start blinking... the trip meter just keep going! Mine switch at 145 miles, by the time I stop for gas it was 153 (8 on F trip) So you did 62, not 66 MPG. Still very good...

That tank was 42 MPG for me. Kind of normal with the saddlebags on. The MotoCentric are good bags for the price, but they stick out almost 10'' on each side... lots of drag! I'm waiting to have a little brake in my budget to change them for smaller ones. I might even go for the Givi E21. They will be big enough now that I have the trunk... And much less drag!

 

[SampsonNation]

I just filled up yesterday and I filled up 2 gallons and I had already driven 90 miles.

I'm not sure why it's different, but I'll keep my eye on it and keep recording.

I have a Juice box pro and a TB full exhaust. The Juice box pro is supposed to be compatible with power commander maps Which map could I use for this?

Whats the difference between Revision A and revision B?

Sport RevA has been the best one for the TBPro. No MPG friendly but you can have another map loaded for better fuel economy. None of the advgear map will work with TBPro.

I'll second this question, what is your most aggressive map?

 

[Marthy]

I'll second this question, what is your most aggressive map?

Sport RevB is the more agressive map to use with the PCV and with the acceleration pump feature desable. (75,30,16)

On the other hand TBPro doesn't have the A/P, so it is map a little more "fat" in the mid range to get the same acceleration. This is where Sport RevA comes into play. Flat out WOT they're all the same... only the mid range differ from one to another.

Best thing to do is try both and compare...

 

[SampsonNation]

Is there anyway at all to verify that the map switch selector works?

 

[Mitch21]

Where is the acc pump feature on the PCV

 

[Mitch21]

Please someone help me!!

 

[Nastybutler]

Please someone help me!!

I don't have the software on my work computer here, but when you open the PC software program it's somewhere in the menus. Can't remember where exactly, but if you go through them you'll come across it I'm sure.

Edit: Also, if you go through this thread, I believe Marthy tells you exactly where to find it, and what values to set it to. The Lord helps those who help themselves, as the saying goes.

 

[Mitch21]

Haha thanks, I looked throughout the menu and this thread but I probe just skimmed right over it, thanks anyway

 

[Marthy]

I posted the Map that I came up with on my website. 6R VRC FZ6 Cams RevF... yep, it took 6 versions to get it as perfect as I could (with my butt dyno...lol) This is not the dyno tune maps, I did this one just like the other ones... with the Auto Tune.

Haven't noticed much talk on the boards about the M4 exhaust for this bike it seems everyone love the TBR.

Which one of these maps would work best with the M4 do you think. Also do you know if PC software is Mac compatible??!?
