  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

I see a little bit of info for the FE350S Powercommander available through Zipty but not much info on the same deal for the FE501S.

What I thought I understood previously was that, for the S model as well as for our EXC brothers, we were not to mess with the CPU or else!

The info on Zipty racings website is exactly the same blurb that is posted in the 350S TPS thread discussion. I would like more details such as what all needs to be purchased. Do we need to purchase anything else such as a map switch. How are these installed? What are the various maps that are included with the purchase of the Powercommander.

Think of me as someone who has never done this to a bike before - I am willing to try, and to learn, anything.

Thanks.
 
With the power commander you are not messing with the ecu it piggy backs between your injectors,tps,cts and map sensor and alters the single as far as maps im sure you can get them from zipty or power commander may have a data base of a few, the other route and probably the best way would be to have a tune built specifically for your bike. Im sure there is someone in your area that has a dyno that could do it for you cost is usually between 175.00-250.00

In addition to the good info from jmd, I really suggest calling DynoJet Research (PC5) in Las Vegas and consulting with them.

A switch is nice to have as it allows you to turn on and off certain features on the trail and not be hooked up to a computer, though that could be done with a Windows tablet too if handy. Specifically allows switching between 2 maps (handy for a sea level and extreme high elevation map), or turning Autotune on and off. If you can get a dyno run done you don't need Autotune or a switch. But if you want more, there is more. As Robert mentioned, call Dynojet. If your near LV they do also consider working on new bikes they have no kits currently for, so worth a call.
