I'm thinking of purchasing a Power Commander for my ZXR636....any thoughts...is it worth it...really cannot decide....Help...undecided from Shcotland...

Depends on the mods to your bike. A full system and airfilter/velocity stacks then yes, end can change only then nah, not worth the expense. Don't forget to factor in the cost of a dyno sesh to get it mapped, otherwise it deffo isn't worth getting

That to be hoinest is my thought....I've only fitted a Road Legal (with Baffle removed) Akky can...and she appears to run perfectly well...revs out and goes like a scalded Cat...my other fear is upsetting it's Road use and making it to peaky....

A power commander doesn't really give you any gains it just help you control what else you have done so like R1ninja said unles you have the filter and full system its not really worth it unless you have money to burn and can play about with lots of maps and a few dyno runs to get what you really want to achieve....

To be honest I had the 636 and I wanted a power commander and full system and all the trimmings but I really wasn't going to achieve the gains that noticed so I just changed bike.

I have one on mine  (got it cheap on fleabay) and after the Dyno run the other week it proved almost perfect fueling. They aren't really necessary though

Maxton is just up from me but my paypal money is burning a big hole for sure this winter, we'll see. To be honest I have no issues with the standard shock as the bike is far better than I'll ever be anyhow

This is how I feel to. though I I can't be sure whats wrong as I feel the bike moving alot on lumpy road. but i think that my be cold tire syndrome..

I will have to check mine... though they should be ok as I have only had it a couple of months

Ideally check before every ride, failing that once a week at least, or whenevr you think you have a handling issue.
