V&H Straightshots, Stg.1 SE A/C, Stg.1 map. - dropped from 51 down to between 44-46 mpg.

 

I ordered the RB Racing LSR 2-1 exhaust. I hadn't seen an exhaust that I really liked until I stumbled accross them. I have an 82 mile round trip to work every day (30* or better in Chicago so I put on a lot of miles) and I like filling up every other day and I didn't know if I would use a lot more gas or just a little. So far from what you all have been saying I should be in good shape as far as mileage. Now if I could just decide between the SERT and TTS.

 

great choice in exhaust. Tuner wise, Although the TTS is considered better, it is only better in the hands of someone competent enough to tune it. Get the one that the your dyno tech is most familiar with and prefers to use. If he's great with both, get the TTS.

 

I too have an 06 lowrider with the screamin eagle air cleaner and stage 1 download. took off the SE pipes for V&H slip ons. I get around 30-32 in town riding the hell out of it and i've gotten up to 50 highway.

 

My bike: 2007 Dyna Low Rider with H-D leather saddle bags and Memphis Shades Del Rio windshield
Me: 180 Lb

When the pipes, A/C and fuel manager were stock I got 48-52 mpg on the highway @ 60-70 mph.

I added Vance & Hines HS Slip-Ons with Quiet Baffles, SE Stage I A/C (running an open ellement) and the Vance & Hines Fuel Pac. Under the same riding conditions, I now get 46-50 mpg.

 

I got the Vance and Hines Big Radius pipes and SE Heavy Breather and I think my mileage dropped by about 4 mpg or so. I did get about 42 mpg stock (best I can remember and it was not stock for long) and now I get about 38 mpg continuously. I do think everyone's mileage will vary, especially when you consider weight and I am a big boy.

 

I only get 30-32 mpg on the hiway with V&H shorties and K&N filter. Is there a rule of thumb for setting the jets on the carb. I may be running rich. Thanks....
