[QUOTE="Redfish Hunter, post: 1312656, member: 28773"] I can answer a little bit of your question Marty, but not all. I installed the PC-V without the Autotune option on Dad's '07. I bought it from FuelMoto and they loaded a "Smoothness Map" into it and I never went any further with it. It "smoothed" the throttle response which is all we needed. Fuel mileage dropped. The PC-V does have the capability to load 2 maps with an external switch, exactly as you stated. What is most common is to use the stock Yamaha settings for the "lean" or "mileage" map and to use the custom map for either power or smoothness. While comparing mpg figures between bikes is useless because of the infinite number of variables, I can verify what happened to Dad's bike. He lost about 2 to 3 mpg. He never cared at all. [/QUOTE]
