RE: Shutting rear cylinder off on 08 Road Glide
Guys, keep in mind, this only functions at idle. \\; Anything off idle, both cylinders are firing. \\; My buddy had it flashed because he rides in parades and wanted it to work at slow speeds, but like I said, it will not kick in unless throttle is at zero position. \\; As far as turning it on and off, I would think once you enabled it, you would leave it. \\; It's automatic, based on temp and really not that noticeable. \\; It is nice, we rode through downtown Chicago in traffic and it kicked in a lot when we were sitting still. \\; Made me feel a little better about the torture I was putting the motor through, but let me tell you, me nutz was still sizzlin'.

I bought my 2008 in early spring, I just tried to activate this feature following pg 140 in my manual...no such luck, guess \\;I need the flash. \\; Will take care of same prior to Sturgis. \\; It better be "no charge".

My buddy has a late build '08 SG with a SERT and he cannot turn the EITMS off/on with the throttle. My early '08 doesn't have the feature AND I have the SERT, so I guess the new ECM software wouldn't help me.
