Power Commander 5 Installation With Pics

[Duff750]

This is accurate to the 06/07 GSX-R 600/750 US Model ONLY, the 08-09 model require some extra steps due to the factory O2 sensor. Though it will mostly be very similar to every 600/750 Model GSXR between 04-09 and can also be referenced for a PCIII install as well.

First off, if I would have mounted it on the left side of my sub frame, it probably would've been a little easier on routing the cabling...but I didn't feel like moving my 12V outlet I've got mounted on the left side...so I chose to mount it on the right. It came with two strips of hook & loop fasteners (velcro) but Zip Ties are your friend!

Mounted on right side of subframe, with cabling feeding into the tail box.



Cabling routed through the inside of the tailbox, comes out and goes underneath the little support bar at the front of the subframe (much easier if you take that little support bar off...be sure to threadlock the bolts when you put them back in) The cable is actually black, but I've got it highlighted in a satin red. Zip Ties are your friend!



More cable routing! Where the cable forks off and has a wire terminal on the end of it, this goes to the ground (-) of your battery. Again, the cabling is actually black, but I've got it highlighted in a satin red. Zip Ties are your friend!



Yes! More cable routing, just put it up against the other cables that go down that direction and tie it up to them with, you guessed it! ZIP TIES! Again, cabling is actually black, but I've got it highlighted in a satin red. Zip Ties are your friend!



Now unplug your injector connectors from the primary injectors. The primaries are the ones down low. It's very easy to get to the secondaries, and you'll see them as soon as you take off the tank...but those aren't the ones we're going for, we're going for the ones that are a BITCH to get to. If you look directly below the secondaries, you'll see the primaries. They look exactly the same



This is what the connector looks like with nothing plugged in to it. There's nothing else down there to unplug, but just in case you find some secret connector that nobody else knows about and it doesn't look like this...it's the wrong one! I don't have any installed down here, but for good measure I'm going to add "Zip ties are your friend!" here for good measure



The wiring harness on the PCV has four sets of injector connectors (male and female) the female ends go on the injectos and the male ends plug in to the wiring harness of the bike that you unplugged from the injectors.

The side of the PCV harness that has the gray wire coming out of it will go towards the right side of the motor. The gray wire is the throttle position sensor wire tap. I couldn't really get a picture that was worth a shit of all the connectors plugged in...the cabling under the tank once the PCV is installed is a complete mess from all the different little wires running around under there. This is the only thing that makes me envy those that use a Bazzaz, as it plugs inline with the ECU...one connector and you're done.

The gray wire I spoke of a bit ago that taps into the Throttle Position Sensor has a little red terminal on the end of it...the red clippy looking thing that is was in the box is what you use to 'tap' into the PINK with BLACK striped wire coming from the throttle position sensor. The Throttle Position Sensor is located on the right side of the motor, between the frame and the throttle bodies. Simply clamp the little red clippy looking thing around the Pink/Black wire and crimp it down with some pliers...but don't squeeze it too tight, don't want to mess up the clippy.

Once the clippy looking thing is clamped down (you'll here it or feel it click) the terminal on the end of the gray wire coming from the PCV harness will simply plug in to the clippy looking thing.





You're pretty much done, other than puting the bike back together. Before you go puting everything back together though, go ahead and connect the USB up to your computer and make sure you've got everything hooked up correctly. With the key turned on (doesn't have to be running) you should be able to twist the throttle and see the TPS section in the Control Center Software start counting up. And if you start the bike, you should be able to see the RPM's in the control center software as well.

Here are a couple random pics, pack of cigarettes for size comparison.





That's all folks! Enjoy!
