Duke 390 Powertronics ECU Install and Review!- Quarantine build.

Today I received and Installed the Powertronics Piggyback ECU for my 2018 KTM Duke 390. This ECU comes with two preloaded maps, Race and Race +. Designed to smooth out throttle response and increase HP and Tq. Heres a detailed installation and and a brief review of my thoughts on the product.

Still the best install video 4 years later,.....thanks!

[@MotoMedicine904]

Glad it’s still helping out

[@TheMulti313]

Just installed today by using your video and you sure made the install alot easier. That darn throttle sensor almost ripped my entire nail off so for sure a hard one to get!

I just finished mine up. The bike is running so much better than before.

Was yours a stock bike before or modified?

[@greenstreak750]

Best Duke 390 video I have seen. I did the PC5 and Auto Tune install on my bike. You pointed out all the little tricks and things to watch out for. It would have saved me a lot of time. The PC5 alone was a waste of money, and after buying the add on Auto Tune my bike still ran like crap. Dyno Jet help line was totally useless with helping me. They gave me a crappy map to install. I ended up taking the bike to Evan Steel Performance and having them Dyno Tune my bike. They agreed the map that Dyno Jet gave me was crap and managed to get an additional 10 horsepower for me. Two days later, I pulled a code that the dealership read as faulty upstream 02 sensor. I got pissed and removed all the go fast stuff and went back to stock. I kept all the parts and someday will build it again. Next time I think I will go the Powertronics route instead of Power Commander. Keep up the great videos, they help tremendously.

[@tremolony4924]

Thanks for sharing your experience. So many people post piggyback installations. Then the results are usually just word of mouth. Problem is most people see no real performance gains & are embarrassed that they wasted their money on some dud piggyback system. Honestly I can't justify the purchase without any real DYNO chart results

[@giosilveri8630]

Great video! I’ve been thinking of getting one for my duke but always have been hesitant as there’s no videos about it till now. After seeing this, I’m more confident that I will be able to do it easily. Appreciate the effort you’ve taken to do it. Now time to order one mine!

is it easier to pop wheelies?

[@MotoMedicine904]

Yes, map 2 is very easy to pull the front end up with. It's always done a small power wheelie when it was stock if I hammered the throttle from like 5mph, it would pull up a few inches off the ground. But with map 2 it can pull up 2 feet off the ground pretty easily.

Did you order yours with the exhaust map? All I have is a slip on and I’m trying to decide which map to use? The website makes it sound like any exhaust change to run the exhaust tune but it’s hard to believe that’s the case with just a slip on....

[@MotoMedicine904]

So from what I have found and others in our Facebook Group have gathered... Map 2 is the exact same as the "exhaust" map that Powertronic has on their website in the downloads area. I personally have messages from Powertronic that both Map 1 and 2 that come on the unit when ordered are safe to use on a stock bike. The key difference is Map 2 adds additional fueling and timing to create more power. That additional fuel is only complimented when the bike can breathe easier by the use of exhaust mods and an air filter mod. Hope that helps you.

[@dsrgarage]

Mike Bruns sure does!! You did yours before the car delete and felt a difference between using map 2 correct? You just had a different can and no air box mod? I will probably order the air box mod too. Seems like a good idea! Thanks

[@MotoMedicine904]

Exactly. My bike had only the Yoshi slip on at the time of me installing the PT ECU... Map 1 was smooth is what I noticed the most and you could smell the additional fuel as soon as the bike started up. Switching into Map 2 is where I felt the actual power gains. First time I flipped into map 2 I made a U turn and hit the throttle wide open while rolling maybe 6-8mph and the front end came up off the ground a good 2-3 feet. I was shocked to say the least. It never did that to me before. So the proof of the additional power was there.

[@dsrgarage]

MotoMedicine where did you find the info on how to do the idle relearn? I did not see it in the instructions for the ECU. Just want to make sure I do it correctly. Throttle still seems a lot smoother down low though even with just plugging the unit in.

[@MotoMedicine904]

To perform an idle relearn you should put the bike on a rear stand so that the kickstand can be up. If you don't have a stand then you'll have to sit on it. Once the stand is up start the bike and let it idle for no less than 15 mins and no more than 16. DO NOT touch the throttle at all during the process. Once the time had elapsed shut the bike off and turn the key off. That's it.

Great guide, I'm thinking about doing the same now...tell me what set up do you have re decat? exhaust? air filter etc....and need to know the preloaded maps will be suitable for my decat free flow exhaust and coober air cover set up. Thanks......

[@MotoMedicine904]

I have a Coober Air Box Lid, Comp Werkes Mini Cat Delete, Yoshimura Alpha slip on, and the Powertronic ECU. The preloaded maps will work just fine with those mods.

[@barrybrooks4525]

OK, just seen your other vids......so this Powertronics is JUST what I need then...?? Yes?

[@barrybrooks4525]

@@MotoMedicine904 Thanks buddy....did the coober cover make any difference?

[@MotoMedicine904]

The biggest difference the coober lid made for me was the loud induction noise it makes. Not sure I noticed a bunch of extra power but it did seem to rev more happily and freely after it.

[@chrishomola3877]

Have you ever lost power in the top end

[@MotoMedicine904]

No. A feeling of loss of power in the top end can be a sign the valves need adjustment though.

Yes

Are you in Florida??

[@MotoMedicine904]

I am now. I was in SoCal at that time

[@Duke-SBR]

What part of FL?

[@arnodewilder6833]

Is this also going to work for a duke 125?

[@MotoMedicine904]

You need to visit Powertronic ECU's website and look for the one sold specifically for the 125.

How i get more backfier on ktm 390 duke

[@MotoMedicine904]

Take off the emissions equipment is step one. Then run a tune with a richer air fuel ratio.

[@skrrt1321]

whats the cost

[@MotoMedicine904]

Theyre usually $299

[@redtiger007]

Ecu remappd top speed how much bro ur d390

[@MotoMedicine904]

About 107 is the max I've seen. That was with a slight downhill. Typically its like 104/5

[@voicevoice8588]

This is also ktm rc 390 ?

[@MotoMedicine904]

Yes they sell them for the Rc390 as well.

[@dylanchapman8038]

Will this work on a 2020 ktm 390 duke?

[@MotoMedicine904]

You would need to talk to Powertronic. The US bikes have not been updated so yes it would work, but the BS6 Euro bikes have some new features that I would make sure are compatible..mainly the factory quickshifter

[@dylanchapman8038]

Looking at purchasing it today if it will thanks!

[@dylanchapman8038]

Got a hold of powertronic through email, they have not yet tested this unit on a 2020, maybe mine can be a test subject lol

[@syamkumarr7894]

Can you send ordering link

[@MotoMedicine904]

Its in the description

[@zboy2042]

Do the fairings need to come off though ?

[@MotoMedicine904]

Yes. You cant lift the tank slightly without removing them.

[@hamadayoob6494]

Hi bro if installed ecu can you change the bike mode between street & moto sport

[@MotoMedicine904]

Only if you have tunes made for those 2 separate activities. That's not how it works out of the box

[@hamadayoob6494]

Thanks very much bro

[@tjanusz3]

Those are garbage. It still doesnt fix the lead condition

[@orahsenju6489]

Yeah, something did. Deeznuts

[@MotoMedicine904]

😂

[@libyboy]

Hi, using this powertronics made any problem to your bike engine ? I’m so double minded to get this . As already duke 390 is high compression engine can this handle this?

[@MotoMedicine904]

No issues. If anything it helps improve engine life by providing more optimal fueling and less chances for detonation
