Be good to know if they can be supplied, however I heard they didn't carry the important Eurobollocks stamp so were not legal. If they can be sourced I think its a must for me as the standard exhaust looks good (to me) but has no sound and therefore lacks the Harley character.

 

Some changes, nothing too drastic.
SE nightstick slip on, Ness big sucker, Powervision 2, retro grips and laydown license plate added. Dynojet sent me a tune to start with, bike is running better and sounds better compared to stock. It's still a bit quiet...waiting on supertrapp open end cap to see if it'll improve the sound a bit.
ETA: Got the supertrapp open end cap with 6 discs installed, she sounds like a harley now lol (not too loud, just right). Rides/runs great too. Overall very happy with it.

Congrats on the new bike. Love the silver/black paint scheme.

 

Thanks

 

do you still have the cat converter with the tuner added? I want to add a tuner to en rich the mixture slightly, but fear will cause more heat in the exhaust and my wife already says is very warm on her foot above the muffler. am thinking of removing the cat this winter and adding a tuner.

 

Knightenforcer,
Can you give a little more detail? I am new to Harley so I am still trying to figure this out step by step.

1) After you installed the mods, How did you pick the best map for the Powervision 2? Did you use a precanned map based on the mods, Auto Tune or Dyno testing? What did it cost you all together for the mods including labor?

2) Did it affect fuel mileage? Don't get me wrong, it is not the $ for gas I am concerned about, I don't want to reduce my range between fillups.

3) Is there a difference in heat? Can you tell if there has been a reduction in engine temp?

Thanks.

 

Jimbo, I wrote to Dynojet and gave them the info I have on the bike and they sent me a tune number (pre-canned) map closest to my setup. Bike runs great, and not running as Hot as before (too lean from the factory). Dynojet has great customer service, you can email them or call them if you need help.
(I have dealt with them with my power commander and PV1 in the past). After that, if you're happy with the way she runs then leave it alone. But If you have the $$$, Dyno tune is best.
I dont ride as much anymore due to health reasons, when I do its usually just around town or the beach. I did not notice a big difference in fuel consumption before and after the mods.

 

I left the cat converter and stock head pipes. Happy with the 103", just needed more sound.
The Powervision 2 tune helped alot with the heat. I noticed a big difference compared to stock. She's not running as hot as it used to with the stock tune.(too lean) PV2 automatically saves your stock tune from your ECM, and you can then compare them on your PC. things I look for are the Air fuel ratio and VE tables (stock vs the new tune). Someone else correct me if I'm wrong but the stock tune is very Lean, and Lean=Heat.

 

Thanks, knightenforcer. This is very helpful info.
