Just ordered a Power Commander V out of desperation. Just want the bike to run the way it really should in stock condition. Right now it's very cold blooded not running smooth until REAL warmed up. Like after 30 min of riding on a warm day. It's hard for me to get a smooth take off from a stop because it's so lean. I don't like moving out into traffic at times because the bike may just buck and fart leaving the line. And at cruising throttle it just doesn't seem to run as smooth as it should... a little ratty or choppy. The shop says "nature of the beast, Yamaha tunes them too lean, rev it up to about 3k to get moving in 1st". Unacceptable to me. Has been a source of embarrassment at times. I also hope the PCv helps with sometime hard starting and stiff shifting.
Am I doing the right thing by placing hopes on the PC? Anyway, I'll let you know how it goes after I get it set up and if it ever stops raining in New England.
Something is most definately wrong with your bike. Go to a different dealer.
