Seems Procom ECUs don't like the cold , I had probs myself. I replaced it with Ignitech tcip4 and not only does it start on the button in the cold it has a much improved power curve. Cheaper too.



I'm not yet convinced that it is the cold that the Procom's don't like, I think it is low voltage out put from weak regulator/rectifiers that it doesn't like. I ran my bike with the Procom all last winter and through the cold early spring here in Ohio with no problems. My hard starting issues did not begin until recently, at the same time that I noticed that my voltage drops as the rpms increase.My cdi went out at around 40,000 miles, now at 50,000 my regulator rectifier seems to be on its way out. I don't know if CDIs and regulator/rectifiers are considered wear items but that is what it seems that they are. We expect to replace brake pads,rotors,spark plugs,plug wires, tires, chains, sprockets and such but don't expect to replace electronics. I would interested to hear from someone who has a Procom and has done the regulator/rectifier mod or uprgade it to see how theirs starts. If nothing else I should have my Rick's Hot Shot regulator/rectifier this week and I will find out for myself.
