    I had some instructions on setting the TPS from a chap in the US - Basically you run the bike to get it hot then use the calibrate TPS function and monitor the average voltage displayed at zero throttle. Enter this value in the lefthand box by backspacing the unwanted numbers. Then with the engine still running use the emergency cut off switch - as soon as the engine stops turn the cut off back on and open the throttle fully - monitor the average votage displayed and type the value in the right hand box. (needs to be done quickly) Save the settings - start the bike again and check on tick over you have zero% throttle displayed - stop the engine with the cut off - switch it back on and check the full throttle shows 100%. No need to rev the engine with this method. You can play around with the voltages at either end to fine tune the result. Because the power for the PCV comes from the injector connectors you need the ignition on during the process.

    I might be misunderstanding but calibrating the TPS was far less complicated than that and doesn't require a dyno? (except for bikes with FBW)

    With the PC3 it is easy and accurate, the procedure listed by Red works but is not 100%, trust me the only way is to set it on the Dyno and if its out even by 1% the whole mapping is out.
