    Hello all,
    I looked back at the older posts and it seemed that when last discussed the PCV still had a stalling issue on the TR650. So, I have a couple of questions.

    1. Has anyone converted a PCV from one bike to work on another?
    2. Are the MAPS available now that better address the AFR better than a simple spoofer?
    3. Has the stalling issue been worked out?

    Finally, are there any other thoughts about the PCV and it's cost/benefit?

    Thanks

    I've had one on my TR for about a year and have not stalled once ever since...but I should also note that I installed the AutoTune at the same time. As for maps, the last time I went in and touched anything I posted the map for another CH member here.

    I've had the eruption spoof on for a couple of weeks now. The bike no longer stalls in first gear acceleration but will occasionally stall out if I am coasting with the clutch in. Long term I would think the PCV and Auto Tune are the best solution. Any thoughts?

    I have the PCV w/autotune and have not had a stalling issue since install. You don't have to wait for warm up on cold start (I still do a warm up, per my dad) and it seems to start better. There is also a slight performance gain, for me it was low to mid response.

    I think its worth the money but to each his own.

    Agreed...the Dynojet solution is big $$$$ for sure! The justification or me was knowing that 100% of the time...at any throttle position...at any rpm...at any elevation...my fuel ratio would be exactly what I needed it to be.

    Has anyone had the hanging throttle issue show up? I live a few miles from dynojet in Las Vegas, and when I spoke to them they told me about it and asked if my stock bike had the throttle hanging issue. This was on the regular non auto tune model though.

    I have been running just the PCV w/ no Autotune, and EVAP still intact, have had no stalling or hanging idle. Until that one day I needed to go for ride, trying to double check all sorts of things since I had just added lights, heated grips, and bars. Yes, I took off without the air filter installed (there I said it :)).

    Half way through that ride, stopped for a break/route decision. Bike wanted to stall taking off, and later pulling into a market, the idle hung at 3000rpms, and would not idle down.

    One of two things possibly;

    1) the no air filter messed up the FI setting
    2) not letting the bike idle long enough for computer to do the "re-set"

    I think the second one more so, because I had disconnected & re-connected the battery numerous times while wiring the lights and grip heaters.


    To answer your question G-men, I think most people's bikes with the PCV has been affected by the hanging idle, and if I remember the EVAP removal solved it.

    I keep thinking my bike would not have "acquired" the hanging idle, if I had not done the wiring project, and of course road without the filter.
    I still need to let it do it's idle "re-set
