im looking for some tips to get the most out of my bike without breaking me, i have a 2009 fatboy that i have put the stage 1 upgrade on with the vance & hines big radius pipes.

was thinking what plugs or wires, or maybe the screamin eagle heavy breather,

i know its a heavy bike, but am not satisfied with the power im pulling out of this thing, thanx all and don't hold back, all tips are helpful to me or someone else reading, thanx--jay

 

theres none sorry

 

Power costs $$$

Adding a good intake and fuel manager (PCV) will help. Call Jamie at fuelmoto.com.

 

A Fatboy is not a heavy bike... try an Ultra or how about a Trike.

You said not to hold back so... (I have put the stage 1 on) If you are talking about the stage 1 flash from HD that was a waste of your cash right there. Forget about the plugs or plug wires. Forget about the heavy breather. Get a fuel management system and a proper tune. Once you are ready, change cams and tune your fuel management system again.

It's always dollars chasing torque.

 

I definatly didn't feel the power i thought i was going to get after i payed the stealer all that money for the stage 1 upgrade

 

Bingo. What they sold you is a canned generic map.

as stated above... cheapest way is to contact Jamie about a Power Commander. If you are going to do more mods in the future then get the auto tune on the PCV. It tunes itself. If you are serious about working with your motor to join the 100/100 club then get a SEST from HD and find a good Indy dyno guy.

We all wish it was easier but it's just a fact. Torque cost dollars.

 

thanx bro, i know your right. was just lookin for some small things like how much if any the plugs and wires or that s/e breather would make , cant do too much right now til my warranty runs out i guess. not sure what the cut off is.

 

Save your cash cause this aint a cheap hobby. I got a deal when I had the cams and tune done and that cost me $800. You can save a tone of money doing the wrench work yourself, but thers no way around paying for the tune if you want to get the most out of what you did. My next step is a 95'' kit and the parts are going to cost me around $450. I'll do the work myself but then It's going to the tuner for $200 worth of dyno time.Thats still at least a total of $650 if everything gose right.

 

Plugs or wires will not help at all. Might even hurt.

A free flowing air filter can help, unless you already have one that flows well.

 

for about 3500 you'll feel the power.There is no such thing as cheap horsepower.G.
