Yeah me too! Well it was worth a try. I was just trying to pass along the good deal to the rest of you, sorry it was a waste of time.

 
Boooo!

I have to give a shout out to gpscentral.com

I searched high and low for the touratech GPS mount for my old Streetpilot III. No way was I spending the $140 that touratech wanted on my free to me GPS. Even used they were going for like $50+shipping, and even at their age, people would snap them up at $50, so you had to be fast.

I couldn't believe my luck when I find on gpscentral.com, the more expensive locking version was $4.95!!! They are in Canada so I ended up spending like $25-$30 for shipping but still, that's a deal.

I sat waiting at home for a notification of a cancelled order but no, it came in. Apparently they figured out their mistake because when I went back to the site it was listed for $103.99.

So even though they made the mistake, they took the hit and honored the price. Good folks for sure. Too bad this amazon deal didn't work out the same. Though, I guess taking the hit on one customer on a rarely sold item is one thing compared to the amount of traffic I'm sure that Amazon received on those Power Commanders.

No problem, thanks for thinking of us. I'm old enough to know if it's too good to be true, it usually is. But it was worth a shot! :D

 
Hell, I couldn't even use it since it was for a Gen 1 and I "bought" one... Only then to get the same notice from Amazon. :lol: Somebody was going to get a hell'uva deal on ebay in a couple of weeks...

Oh well, didn't want the damn thing anyway. :angry2: I just can't stand to miss out on a deal. Anybody got anything else I can spend $70 on? It's found money now, I'm in the black on this item. :yahoo:

Put it toward a Fuzeblock. Quality product and there's a link on here somewhere for a forum discount.

 
I have had power commanders on both my CBR1100XX and my 09 Concours and both failed on the hwy. Fortunately I was able to disconnect them and make it home. To me, the questionable reliabilty wasn't worth the little added performance Sent both back for repairs and sold them on ebay

Wow that sucks. Operator error? Crappy installation? :p

I had mine on my first FJR for 220,000 miles with never and issue or problem.

 
~55k miles on my FJR and ~12k miles on V-strom with PCIII's installed. Not a problem here. In the installation, it is said that it is critical to get a good ground (all the way back to the battery). It also probably helps if the device is installed someplace out of the weather, like under the seat.
