PC III USB, Cozye's Map, Face Plate Buttons

In one of his posts, Cozye mentioned slightly leaning out his map settings when running stock exhaust.

Anyone tried doing this with the PC Face Plate Buttons?
Looks like it would be easy to lean the low and medium rpm range 2 percent.
Might improve gas mileage somewhat without adversly affecting performance.

2004 with:
K&N, O2 Eliminators, stock exhaust, Pair Valves disabled, PC III USB running Cozye's map, too much time to think. :tongue:

70 views and no response.
So....
Let me try this again and see what I am doing wrong.

Has no one tried using the face plate buttons?
Seems easy to do, easily reversible, doesn't change the original map.
Am I missing some reason not to do it?
Is this an idea that I should just forget?

While no one trying it isn't a complete surprise, (I really did think someone would have), no comments at all was a surprise. I felt at least a few opinions would be voiced.

It's going to be rainy and cold here for a week, but I think I will give it a try when the weather breaks.
A short ride should be enough to see what happens to performance.
If all seems good, one tank of gas should answer the fuel consumption question.

Sometimes it takes a day or two for a response on some topics, especially is it's good riding weather, more people on the road than at their computer. That being said, I thought there was a post here on VFRD or maybe it was VFRW that went over this procedure, you might try doing some more forum searching on both sites.

Good luck, I hope you find a resolution.

Cheers

Thanks for the reply. :fing02:
If there was no activity on the site, I would agree with what you are saying, but the thread has had over 90 views with one response.
It isn't like no one has read the post. Just that no one but you responded.

I would be very interested in any posts that went over actual results of using the buttons to tweak/over-ride the PC map.
Most of the posts I found about face plate buttons were my own and I know I don't know what I am talking about.

If you are referring to posts about how to access and use the face plate buttons, I feel comfortable with being able to do that.
What I was really wondering was what the results were. Looks like I will have to do my own experimenting when better weather returns.
