Advice wanted on fitting a power commander 5.
#1
I have now managed to get a 2nd hand pc5 from an R1 but I am unsure about one thing. In the instructions for the R1 there is a single grey wire that is to be attached to the number 5 wire in the ecu. What I want to know is this the same on the FZ1?
Has anybody fitted a pc5 from an R1 or has anybody fitted a pc5 meant for an FZ1 and it has the same grey wire to the ecu?
I am wary about connecting it just in case I make a balls up!

I have just looked on the dynojet website and the FZ1 and R1 have different fitting instructions so it seems its a no go. I had assumed the pc5 for an R1 would fit as it is basically the same engine and all I would have to do is download a suitable map for an FZ1 into it.

I think the PC5 is correct but for later versions of the FZ1s ,,early ones use the PC3 as i understand...

That does seem to be true so I will sell the pc5, I have wasted enough time trying to find a 2nd hand unit to fit so I will do what I should have done in the first place and buy a brand new power commander! That will teach me to try and save money.

Is the pc5 you have fitted the correct one for an FZ1? The one I have is for a 07/08 R1 which I mistakenly thought would fit my FZ1 but they seem to be quite different to fit according to Dynojets instructions on their website.

No PCV for the R1 will fit an FZ1, the PC3 for the 02-04 R1 will fit an 06 FZ1 though.

Can he fit his R1 PCv to his 08 Fz1s ?

An R1 PCV won't fit, an some R1 PC3s will.  I have a PCV that is specified for the FZ1 and so does fit.[/quote]

I should get my money back on the PC5, its on ebay at the moment and its been bidding up to within £10 of what I paid for it Smile .
Sometimes when you buy cheap you do get a bargain, just because something is expensive does not mean it is better. My mistake was buying something that I thought would fit but didn`t., but you live and learn.
