    My PCV arrived yesterday... I've downloaded and installed 2 maps, one for baffle in, one for baffle out.

    I now need to find a neat switch and install it somewhere. It appears the switch just needs to be a basic on/off switch (closed circuit/open circuit)... but I can't decide on the switch, or where to mount it.

    Anyone done this themselves, and can send some ideas my way?


    I'm thinking a neat install would be a small rocker switch installed somewhere in the "boot" (under the pillion seat), but also toying with fitting a key-operated switch next to the pillion lock.

    My setup with dynojet switch, but any on-off switch will do the trick.

    Is that the "official" switch?

    Seems to cost about £40, which is about £35 more than I'm willing to pay for a little on/off switch... I don't need it handle-bar mounted either as I won't need to switch maps on the move (can't remove/replace the baffle whilst I'm moving, although that would be one hell of a trick!!!)

    Do you have rain & dry modes or something?

    Yes, it's 'official' dynojet switch. bought it cos its supposed to be waterproof and it has metal frame. For switching on the fly between maps made with different afr tables (cruising/racing).
