    hi guys
    Been looking for a pcv 5 but nothing cheap knocking about but have found the usb 3 version going at a decent price for my 09 blade
    just wondered if anyone is running one of these on a same year blade and if they have had any issues with it fitting or running on the bike or just general help with it

    Many thanks

    Brian (RosieR1)

    BTW Is it spring yet ??????

    Hi mate, I have the USB 3 fitted to my 05 and 08, they work fine. PCV 5 is just a later version and for a lot of people it's a must have for the bragging rights. If it's just for the road save your money and go for the USB 3 but I'd recommend having it custom mapped by an expert.

    But just as I was reading your reply guy rang me to say it was only the ignition module and not the pc3 he had got mixed up ?? Bloody story of my life will just have to keep looking but anybody reading this who has or no of anybody selling a pc3 or 5 would appreciate a nudge saying that probs half the members on this forum are after the same lol

    Cheers
    Brian

    Dunno if it helps but there is a guy selling a CB1000R PCV for £200 (inc delivery) I guarantee it is compatible as I am running one now. I'll PM you details if you want. You just need to buy a CBR specific eliminator.

    Think the new PCv is smaller so will fit under seat.

    if you plan to use a autotune module you MUST have a pc5

    Gonna try the power commander first just want a smooth delivery across the rev range after having put can and k&n on bike so would prefer a pc5 but will have to see how the penny's stack up as times are a bit lean at moment
