A question from a relative newbie. I've done the Barbarian mod which seems to do all that's advertised. +1 on that. So here's my question. I've been assuming that i would buy a Power Commander for the 2006 when it came it . . . which it just has. I was going to buy it specifically to address the issues that the Barbaian mod appears to. So, is the PowerCommander worth buying?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Depends on what you are trying to accomplish. If you have drivability issues, then IMHO, yes, the PCIII is definitely worth it. You don't NEED it, but it will benefit certain aspects of your FJR's drivability and performance.

If I have said once, I have said it a million times. The Barbarian jumper is a half-assed fix. Get it done right - either by installing riv-nuts and running an EGA to make the proper adjustments, or get a PCIII.

Read THIS THREAD. Especially the post by "Torch". Good info there.

Oh, and welcome to the forum.
