Got my replacement Procom CDI yesterday. Nice box.
Bike's model year: Pre-fire
Mods/changes to Cinnamon Girl: 130 mains, 45 pilot, TBS jet needle/one shim, D&D pipes, K&N drop in, main snorkel pulled, Polaris bellmouth.
Procom map: CMTBSA-09.Pecu
Started her cold this morning. Full choke fuel on, then moved choke to 3/4. BANG! Oops. Pushed choke all the way in and she wanted to start. So pulled the knob out to about 1/2 choke and she fired right up. Warmed up good and idled nicely.
Hooked up the zumo and called up some J.J. Cale...
Rode sedately for 4 miles or so then when
Devil's Nurse came up in the que, the throttle got hammered in second gear and I felt the front end get real light. Hum. Better watch that on corner exits now.
From a stand still she rolls on about the same as she did with the oem cdi. That is until you hit 3.5K rpm. Then watch out! From second she pulls hard till ya shift to third and once again she gets light up front. Third really requires 4.5K + to accelerate away properly, (read lean forward to weight the front wheel).
Got her to work with no shut off issues while idling. One thing to note: her neutral light flickers a little while idling. Off idle (while still in neutral) it doesn't.
Time will tell. But map 9 is a major improvement over the oem cdi. Just last night I rode her home with the oem cdi. Then riding her this morning was a yute'ish experience.
About 3 miles out from work this morning on the causeway, I stopped her then with
Closer To You playing, I ran her through the gears. WOW! She really likes to accelerate from 5K+ when rolling 40 mph. Downshifting from fifth to fourth while doing 50mph then accelerating is about the same as oem. However, drop her to third and omg. You could say I got a little taste.
There you have it. Time will tell if the procom cdi has a half life longer than 50 miles.
