It would be better if we dumped the EPA. How stupid is it that the price of a bike is higher due to all of the EPA regulations, and then we have to spend money to make it run right?

Default Epa

the M/C industry is a small,part of the system and can be easily manipulated by big brother,car and trucks ran like **** in the early 70's but adopted and improved there products to operate with these EPA regs,the japs have ,we only need HD to get with the program and build a better product,I have friends who have had there FLHTC'S fall apart with less then 10K(dealer maintained) ,and they weren't abused,I have an 07 FLhTC and a 00 Yam Venture,when i travel (STURGIS ,from NY),i take the Yam,i get there and back no problems.

Just want to say that I have had the Xieds installed for a few hundred miles and it has transformed my ride. Absolutely no detonation even in 6th gear at 50 mph.
I have the 14.7 to 13.8 ones.
The bike runs well behaved in high trafic conditions at low speeds giving a more controlled ride. less down shifting as the engine does not sound as if it is starved for fuel now.
High speeds are great too.

I think I have probably posted in this thread before. I used the XIEDs when I bought my 08. Put them on the first day when I rode home from the dealer. After 1000 miles, installed the SE A/C, and V&H Dresser Duals, SEPST and had a dyno tune. (That's what happens when you read too much on here!!!!! lol) I honestly could not tell it ran any better!!!!

I often wished I had saved my money and just stayed with the XIED. Now, I am just finishing up a cam job and a gear change and plan to use the new RevPerf Precision Tuner to make the tune right. No more $90 per hour dyno tunes for me every time you change something!!!

Installed the XIED'S on my 2011 SG with 103 engine, big sucker stage 2, and fishtails with no baffles. It's running cooler and without any problems

So with 333 pages, I can't read though the whole thread. Is this something I can run with my power commander V controller and hook up the o2 sensors?

If you've got a Power Commander, don't bother with the XIED's. They are intended to be a cheap fix for guys who are staying mostly stock. I run them with Rush 1.75 slip ons and love 'em.

Curious if anyone has installed a mild cam along with exhaust and SE air filter with only XIED's? Read on the Nightrider forum that it has been done with good results, would like to hear actual experiences.

Thanks
Mike
