Nightrider O2 IED's - Field Test
#2911
I would do the slip on swap and run them with out the IED/EXID to see if it pops on decell. Just doing slip ons and no AC, you really shouldn't need anything. There is room for learning in the ECM, but not that much. Even the stealer states you don't really need fueling with just exhaust changes. You will need something if and when you add the AC. If you choose to, I suggest the EXIDE's.

Gundog, you connect the SERT/SEST/TTS/Twin-Scan-II to the data port on your bike. It's a connector just hanging there with a rubber plug in it, likely beside your ECU.
The Twin-Scan is self-sufficient for about an hour's worth of data. The SEST might be, too, for some amount of time. The SERT/TTS, for sure, require a laptop or other device running Microsoft Windows (yuck!) connected to it and stuffed in your saddlebag, knapsack, etc. to record the data.
Any of the units can datalog on any bike, regardless being married to one or not (no worries with the Twin-Scan).
I really don't want to **** anybody off by saying this, but the software with the TTS I just obtained the other day is well below the standards of quality and usability I've become accustomed to in the GNU/Linux world over the past 12 years. At least in the rare event I've encountered software that didn't do just what I wanted, how I wanted it, I've been able to modify the source code accordingly and re-compile it. Not so this stuff... Not only is it not very intuitive, but the documentation is sorely lacking. Perhaps with some help, if it's accepted, this will change in future revisions.

One question I have on the xied: I've read that the ecu adapts over time to o2 sensor changes; meaning that the ecu over time would override the xied, and make the bike go back to a 14.7 to 1 afr. Is this possibly correct? Anyone have any long term experience with the xied? It seems like most comments are from people who have just put the product on the bike. Anyone know if nightrider has addressed this question? Thanks.

I have a little over a thousand miles on my xieds and the bike is running great, but figure this.When I first put them on I had my oem filter on and I had some decel poping. Then I replaced the filter with a K&N filter and had very little or no poping on decel.You would thing the poping would have increased since I made it a little more lean. Can on of the knowlege ones explain this to the backyard wrenchs?
