2012 idle rpm?
I have recently bought a 2012 fatboy lo. It already had stage one done with a screaming eagle tuner.the idle rpm is around 1000 to 1050. Is this normal? It seams awfully high to me. My other bike was much lower and it was fuel injected also.any information would be appreciated.

I just dropped my 12 Softail Deluxe off at the dealer for some work..My idle is at 1000 as well, and I asked him to lower it. I was having a stage 1 kit put on and I figured as long as they were going to be hooked up to a computer it would be easy to lower it to around 900 or even 850. ...My request was flatly denied stating the same reason other posters here did. The last Harley I owned was a 63, and the idle was really low(carburetor) so I could get the "potato" sound we all love. The service tech at Harley told me. "fergeddaboudit". Those days are gone. Those motors were built to withstand that kind of abuse. The new ones aren't!
Geez!!
Geez!!
