Mine too. Doesn't require you to see it all the time. You set it and it does everything else automatically.
Power Commander or Juice box necessary?

Okay cool, so under the rear seat it goes! Now off to swallow the pill of purchasing it now....
Most are under the rear seat. I however have mine under the rider's seat. The only time you need to see the PC is when installing a new map...
Help in Aus 
hey guys I have made my own custom GTYR exhaust for my fz6r and its sounds perfect to me however im wondering if im running too lean or rich because of this.
Symptoms:
Poping or crackel on decel
Sometims flame only if DB killer is removed and its rare only when cold usually
No increase or decrease it feels like in power with db killer in and still get the popping but no flame
My model has the O2 sensor as standard in the exhaust so im wondering if its running perfect because of the ecu adjusting it automatically?
If anyone knows if my ecu is actually adjusting anything please let me know or is it just an error sensor or something?
If not could it be making my bike run lean/rich as there is no cat to keep exhaust gas around the sensor?
please someone help i have no change of color in the pipes at all.
CALLING ALL KNOWLEDGEABLE PEEPS I NEED SOME ADVICE
Please pardon my spelling and gramma

Most than likely your ECU will work in close loop in the cruising range or small throttle opening. (from what I learn on my FZ09, FZ6R here doesn't have a O2 sensor) I would keep the DBK in place to be safe but most than likely a PCV would help and improve power & throttle response. Like anything else... when its done 1/2 way, you get 1/2 the results.
I use mine now with no PCV + DBK. No power bu tits ok... I got the FZ09 now.

Hey guys.. I need to pick up the juicebox but they no longer sale it according to their website. I've searched but a lot of the model numbers don't say what they fit. Anyone know exactly what I need to search for or where to buy one? The sooner the better, lol.
Edit: NM.. Went ahead and got the PC5

You can now get a cable adapter and download Power Commander C3 app if you have an Android phone and do most if not all the things you can normally do on the computer including changing and adjusting maps. Helpful if you want to make map adjustments or just change while on the road.

Awesome. That's exactly the type of system I was looking for so I can switch out mappings on the fly if I decide to do a longer highway trip after rolling around through town.
I'm guessing I need to go to Marty's website and grab his mappings?
Pretty much my bike is a lot of cosmetic upgrades besides, K&N, Two Brothers Exhaust, Racetech front and rear suspension upgrades. Any thoughts on which one would be the best for me? Anything else I need to tweak in said specific mapping? You guys rock. Super excited to get all this on this upcoming week.

Adv gear Rev b is the best map bar none. You only need to hook one wire in addition to the normal wiring. Just use a slicer to tap the speed sensor wire. Very easy and worth while. I can't run it anymore because of my fz6 cams which makes me sad. LOL definitely best map out there.
Marthy's sport map has best performance, but lower gas mileage. Marthy's touring map has better mileage, but worse performance, and advance gear rev b is a combination of both. Power commander has the ability to build maps for each gear which is why you need a speed sensor tap. It combines the best of both world. Sport map for 1-4 and touring 5th and 6th gear. Gets pretty decent mileage and great performance. You could always download all those 3 and experiment. There's an accel pump setting that gives an extra shot of gas at certain rpm, duration and throttle position (set by the user). Marthy has the recommended settings in the map file, but it's not actually set to my knowledge. I had to set mine. It's a hold over from the carb days. Gives an extra little kick. Marthy calls it the wheelie setting. LOL! Have fun!

Haha.. Yea I'm not comfortable enough for wheelies yet! lol. Once I get it all installed and figure out which wire is the sensor wire and all that you are talking about I'll get me uploaded and check out his info in map download.
I don't do wheelies either. I know I can lift the tire up though. LOL! MistahT has a youtube video highlighting some points of the installation of the PCV. I think he shows the speed sensor hookup. When you get everything if you're still unsure drop me a PM. I can lift my tank and take a pic.Haha.. Yea I'm not comfortable enough for wheelies yet! lol.

MrT video is on my website

Awesome. I see it says 22 guage wire for the sensor on your site, I have a ton of 20! Will that be ok?
20 should be fine. I think that's what I used.

Awesome. Alrighty, here we go!
Don't lose your exhaust gaskets unless your new headers came with new gaskets. Just from personal experience, you may have to put nuts on more then once. I never seem to get a good seal on the first try with my headers. I've taken them off a few times for other work. Only takes a sec to loosen and reposition. Just need to gradually tighten them so you get even pressure and seal. PCV hookup is easy. I have mine under the rear seat for easy access.

Thank you! Yea, I've been reading up on this while I waiting for them. My bike only has 1k miles on it so I'm hoping the ones on there now will still be good and not crushed. I'll definitely use your advice and make sure I get a good seal and double check it. Thanks for all the replies and advice Scott and Marthy!
They can definitely be reused. Can use a little dab of silicone to hold them in place. They just sit in the exhaust port of the head. After you get everything on, including map downloaded crank her up. Leak should be obvious. Did you get block offs as well?

I did I did! They come in tomorrow though so I'm not going to install anything until tomorrow night once it cools down
