[itchin]

Nobody I know has had this experience, but I only know one guy (outside of this circus) with a PC on a Triumph. I do know a bunch of guys at the track with PCs on various bikes. None of them have mentioned a problem.

If I understand how they work, there shouldn't be any way they possibly could mess up the ECU. But I'm not a fan of PC's and don't own one, so my opinion is worthless. I figure for the money Tuneboy is a far better solution.

YMMV

No but why waste your money on it? Nowhere near as good as Tuneboy - no ignition adjustment or diagnostic ability. I know you don't want to hear about Tuneboy but it's way better.

Quick question. I'm not a computer geek. (I'm pretty electronically challenged.)(Well,,,,, very challenged.) Would a Tuneboy be too much for a guy like me to figure out and use? :???:

I'd recommend checking out the tutorials on their site, maybe even download the software (it's free, just can't load a tune to the ECU without the key and cable). I have d'loaded it and played around a bit and think it's pretty straightforward, I will be buying a key and cable in the future when $ permits.

Tutorials here!

You can also d'load and save the documentation in PDF form.

Thanks milgster! I'll have a look. I will probably have more questions later though. :???:
