Default V&H Fuel Pack with RineHart TDs - Popping Update

I have made mention of this in some other threads, however figured I'd place a quick post here and in the Touring area.

As you can see by my sig.... I have a very simple setup right now. Nothing to shock and awe anyone and perhaps some snickers from those who hate fuel packs. Makes no difference to me.

I've been having some decel popping running the Fuel Pack and my Rinehart True Duals (RH TDs). The popping doesn't occur all the time but it does often enough for my taste. Revs over 3500 and shifting gears .... P-O-P and It is a good crisp sounding pop. Not like a backfire that is trying to happen... I mean a P-O-P that sounds like a firearm goin off (and that is with me in the saddle... who knows what it sounds like behind the bike). According to the map settings to use I was to use FP-541 (for those of you who have fuel packs)

can do it when cold... hot... or anywhere in-between.

Talking with another guy here on the forums he ended up using the V&H Fuel Pack settings for RineHart TDs but with the QUIET baffles instead of the standard baffles.

I didn't like that change and felt I would end up re-leaning the bike again.

So instead I actually emailed V&H expecting not to hear from 'em but thought ... what the heck... might as well try.

Took a couple days and I got a response from 'em. They told me to:

1> change Mode 23 from 16 to 15
2> After setting Mode 23 then turn off and then turn-on bike again and go back to Mode 19 and re-do the throttle calibration.

Seemed simple enough. I'm thinking .... oooooooooooooooh changing the value of one mode by only 1 digit. Wonder how that will work.

Well...... DAMN. Pops are gone. I did hear 'one' that sounded like a baby one thinking of poppin but that was it. Rode 60 miles and had no popping noises other than the 1 when changing gears nor when engine braking.

Soooooooooooooo for those who have the V&H Fuel Pack (Version 12 has Mode 23-33 you can set) and RH TDs and some popping on the '07s .... might want to make the adjustments I was told by the techs at V&H. Probably will help eliminate your popping issues too.
