probably not, more a novelty at the moment, don't do many long trips.
have heard of a thumb operated version but requires cutting/modding of stock throttle.
i am intrerested in the Magura quick-action throttle next.uses half twist of standard for full throttle.

Interesting to note Power commander do have an add on to the pc3 for timing, a bit pricey though :?

Nice feature being able to time each cylinder individually.

Its only been a few days and havent had it out for a decent ride yet ... just commuting type stuff...

Seat-of-the-pants-dyno indicates more go in the lower gears ... most noticably in first & second. Easier wheelies off the lights, more responsive to throttle and seems to have a slightly diff note to the exhaust now.

Only took about an hour to do ... worthwile in my books

FYI the bike has a full akrapovic titanium exhaust, pcIII and K&Ns ...
