What happened to the post that someone made about the Sling Mods Pedal commander being on sale? I clicked on it and it went to the site with the sale price. Then I went to google it just to see what it did and such. When I went back, the post was gone, and now the sale price is gone as well.. What happened?

Unless you just putt around, holding back traffic, you will go GA GA with the PC. First off, it removes the throttle slack, which is a good thing for control. Then you have umpteen times two sensitivity settings -- anywhere for "how many more cars can I hold back" to "whiplash!"
The PC simply flat out makes a Spyder way more fun. It doesn't increase the HP or torque, but it sure feels like it does.
I was thinking about getting a ECU reflash, but the PC makes that absolutely unnecessary. Besides, the PC settings are flexible - you can even do them on the fly. With a reflash, you get what you got until you go through the motions to change it.
Oh...and the install is super easy. Slingmods has a video of it.

Thanks for your input. I have been waiting for my extended warranty to expire before I do the flash. But I think I will try this first. Is this something that I can switch from one spyder to another if I wish? I have 2 F3Ts.

Yes between the two.

Also, he sells the Pedal Box, the direct competitor.

That's another advantage to the PC, it is transferable to any 1330 Spyder.

To resist is futile (and you know it). I ordered mine yesterday and it's already being shipped for free with no tax--and the coupon code works.

This is his ball and bat and playing field. I'm sorry if I stepped on your toes, Lamont.

I’ve owned 4 Spyders and feel stupid for waiting so long to buy the PC… It’s a game changer. Only ones who speak negative are the ones who don’t own it. It’s worth $1K to me.. Best money ever spent. Don’t hesitate. Good luck

it really does change the rider experience, doesn't matter where you get it... well worth the $$.

The coupon is still valid. Give me a good reason not to buy the pedal commander.

After installing the PC on my F3T, I can only compare it to the feeling I got when I went from my '63 VW Bug to my '69 Dodge Super Bee. Go for it.

Thanks for the code

Great add for your up-coming ride! If you are new to the Spyder, I highly recommend you put a few hundred miles on the Spyder BEFORE lighting it up with the PC. The nanny will be triggered quicker with the PC until you get the feel of the limits.

Yep I’m pretty well a Spyder rookie and don’t plan to install until I get comfortable with the bike

I installed mine 10 days ago and have only ridden it twice since then. It made me fall in love with my spyder all over again. No, it did not add anymore hp, but it just gives it to you without hesitation. 115 hp is not bad for the weight of these trikes, but it just hits so much harder (if you want), than it ever did before. I cannot wait until I get a chance to try it in some real tight twisties. Coming out of the corners will be insane.

watch out TOO much throttle, you'll be like the guy in front of you last year just starting the Tail Of Dragon, with front wheel lift!!!

My take on this is " a hair trigger on a Spyder can be just as lethal as a hair trigger on a weapon" !!!! .... When I was an LEO I knew people who had their weapons " Altered " for less trigger pull .... one of them was fired because He did it to His service weapon, and it was discovered after an incident in which He had to use His service weapon ..... so IMHO you do this at your peril ...... good luck ....

I still tell people about that guy. He found out that all those mods didn't mean a thing once you get on the really tight twisties.
But yes, I know how dangerous it can be getting to heavy on the throttle coming out of a turn. I definitely plan on getting in some practice well before I get overly aggressive. As it stands, I am thinking sport mode and it's lowest setting will work just fine. Makes it a little more responsive without having too much of a hair trigger.

Yep, I am definitely aware of how this thing can get away from you if you don't respect it. I will start in the lower settings and work my way only so far up the ladder. It is kinda like my mustang. It has normal, sport, sport 2, and then race mode. I have not used race mode too often because it turns off the traction control. Plus the computer resets and adjust to the driving style that you have. The previous owner was a 70 year old guy who just drove it to work on occasion. After a week of aggressive driving, it learned my style and adjusted transmission shift points and all. Felt like a totally different car.
I do wish our spyders had adaptive cruise control like my car though. Even the newest BMW bike has adaptive cruise.

"Hair trigger" is not what you get with a PC unless you choose to go that far. City has 9, Sport has 9, and Sport+ has 9 degrees of sensitivity. Most of us seem to have gone with a high City/low Sport for street riding. There's too much misinformation about the impact of this product.

Sport at +1 is the sweet spot for my riding style and the roads I ride on.

I uninstalled for the first service, but probably won’t for the next service. Nothing was said at the dealer about the RLS cat delete that I installed. My guess is they see these things a lot.

The PC is only as dangerous as you make it. Keep the front wheels pointed straight ahead if you put it into the Sport+ range. I still run with Sport at +1.
