The PC III make is easier to adust or change the fuel mixture. Your bike is jetted for a stock pipe and stock airbox. If you make changes to either of those you need to check your fuel setup to keep from running lean or rich. A custom map on the PC III just consist of going to an authorized PC III dyno center and having the Bike dyno'd with your setup and the exact map loaded to your PC III that fits your setup and Location. You will get optimum preformance with a custom map

 

Well said jspencer. The custom map will smooth out your power curve and maybe eliminate any flat spots.

and more than likely increase mpg, decrease (not eliminate) popping, and increase responsiveness...

 

you can always check the library for a map that fits your configuration. If you decide to go with a BAK then you can reconfig it again. Do you need a BAK, no, only if you want more power. Do you need a pcIII, no, only if you want your bike to run as best as possible for your setup. You can always adjust the ecu to make bike run better and get a pcIII later or not. A custom map is the best way to go once you have done all the mods to your engine that you are going to do. I am using wilskies custom map for my setup and am real happy with it, so much that i am not in a hurry to get my own and to use the money saved on other mods.

 

I had a map i was using and was happy with it also but once I got a custom map the Nike responded better throught the whole RPM range. You can find a map that will work but the custom map is the way to go (IMHO)
