I have seen his adds before, bit hard to follow the engrish translation.

We need someone who can translate Japanese to English to talk to him for us.

SOMEONE must be able to program or reprogram the cards ..(fingers crossed)

I have given a PGM3 and PGM4 with card(s) to a friend of mine who works for a 'large' German electronics company in Melbourne - he has made working them out and reprogramming them his pet project - Ill let you guys know if anything comes of it.

What a great resource someone who could do that would be.. No more HRC cards and to get a stock one you have to shell out the $1000+ for the whole PGM with card. Why o why didnt i get an 030 card while i still could

I have a collection of PGM4 cards which I hope can have reprogrammed if anyone is keen...

I would like one if you can get it reporgrammed. Failing that if he can reprogramme a PGM IV I have that has no card to match either one of your cards or a card I have then that would be great as well.

Would be extra cool if someone could make a hybrid card with the speedo and warning lights working with the maps of the HRC 030.

How about a card with a cable so we could manipulate timing/fuelmap etc.
IE (power commander type thing)

Leigh and I guessed that all the card tells the PGM is;

a; it's serial number (so it knows it's not being nicked)
b; what card it is, i.e. the PGMIV "knows" all the ign curves, what display to use etc.

This little hypothesis is based on the fact you can remove the card if you run the HRC loom and the bike still works. In fact if you turn it off (with the kill switch) for a couple of seconds then back on it'll start again, nothing needed is held on the card, once it's told the PGM what to do it's seemingly redundant, it's just a switch.

I doubt a stock PGMIV can run any other maps than the available cards. Even the 525 which was an HRC special might be for a totally different (internally) PGM.

Does anyone have some pictures of the internals of a card.

Hows this?

That is a very cool picture.

Maybe the answer is not in replicating the card, but removing it entirely by working out what signalling is sent over the wire to the pgm / dash or what ever else makes it go....

I completely screwed up , by leaving too late to buy the HRC card ,
I placed an order with TYGA last year but Honda apparently werent interested any more

I should have got a 030 card while they were still programming them. Although im fairly confident someone will find a workaround , with all the demand for such.
