Tuning the engine without the power commander.......

Post by Raptorious »

Hi there everyone,

My name is Dean and i am new member here.

I live in Sweden and a proud owner of a V-Raptor 1000 from 2000.

So bear with me if my questions are somewhat stupid :oops: , i am a beginner.

My bike is fitted with race cans from Mivv, K&N air filter and a TRE (Timing Retard Eliminator).

Its clearly going lean, because now and then the engine stops when cold

and at low revs.

So my question is: can i adjust only the CO-screw and find a level by approx. or is necessery to buy a power commander?

The second question: Do anybody know to get hold of a parts list for the raptors?

are you gaining enough engine heat using the 'choke' (throttle advance start) lever up to about 40 degrees ? that sometimes causes cut out if the engine hasn't been warmed up sufficiently
