Yes to stage one. If your mileage goes up you might have a too lean condition. I had to remap and fatten up to keep the bike rich enough for my taste. My mileage dropped a little. After stage one I recammed and tune with a sert.

 

Or you can just wait until they put the v-rod engine in all the bikes.&nbsp\\; Then you will have real power.&nbsp\\; You don't need to do it.&nbsp\\; Will it make your bike as fast as a night rod? The answer to that is no.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;

 

i put rinehart slipons on my dyna se air filter and stage one .
i ran very hot ,
so i put a power comander on and put a k and n filter on.the se filter seal was comeing apart it was not rubber but a&nbsp\\;foam seal.
now it dont run hot
the down load did run faster but it ran hot so i will not get it on my next bike.fuel management is the way to go.i will get the harley race tunner next time i think.
my power comander was done on the dyno and runs good put there are better ones out there that will i think get you more power.

 

My buddy who owns a V-Rod is very impressed with my Stage 1 1200C

+1
I was a nightrider skeptic but it only took one ride with the O2 IEDs to become a believer.&nbsp\\; Better throttle response,&nbsp\\; stronger and smoother pull through the gears and&nbsp\\;the exhaust even sounds better.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;The bike has never run&nbsp\\;this good.&nbsp\\; I'm&nbsp\\;enjoying it so much more.&nbsp\\; All for $70.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;

 

Necessary? Absolutely not. Worth the money? Depends how much you have to waste. A real difference? Yes. Your temp, mpg and wallet will decrease and your hp increase a bit.

 

+1. Fyi&nbsp\\;my gas mileage dropped as much as 10 mpg every time I did it. 40-43 mpg stage 1, 35-37 mpg stage II.&nbsp\\;

 

What do they actually do in a stage 1 upgrade? What's the price normally? I have V&H SS's, the V&H VO1 air cleaner, and the fuel pak. Would I benefit from a stage 1 upgrade?
