i am wanting to put on a air cleaner and vance and hines shortsides on ,does the xied work for app.and do it cheap as possible,any advice would be helpful. thanks

 

Huh?

 

I have Python 3's, SE A/C and xied's on my 883. I have only had them on about a week now. I have noticed low end throttle responce has increased dramatically. All the way up thru 3rd I can crank the throttle and boy does it sh*t and get. Not had them on long enough to check how they effect MPG, but will check it over the next few weeks. Have not had the chance to see how upper end is effected, since I usually wind it up quickly to about 70 and cruise. Hope thise helps, and got the xieds for 103.99 shipped.

 

Guess I'm a dumba$$... what is xied?

 

Is this some kind of air filter?

 

It's a set of resitors put together by Nightrider that you insert between your ECM and the O2 sensors that reportedly changes your AFR (makes it a bit richer).

The O2 ied's change the AFR from 14.7-1 to 14.2 - 1. The xieds change it down to 13.8-1. Hope this sheds some lite

 

So does these things really work? I live where it gets over 100 consistently during the summer.

If these things work and actually lower the temp. I'm all in.

How do they affect your warranty?

 

I did a lot of research over in the tech forum. Some of those guys tested them on various bikes, with various configurations as far as A/C and pipes. Then checked the temp on front and rear heads and found an almost 100 deg drop in temp. This to me is a huge drop and worth the investment. Go over there and see, there's a thread on the xied's you can check out.

I tried XIEDs on my 07 1200R that already had SE/AC, SE slip-ons, and V&H fuelpak and didn't notice much improvement. However, on my stock 08 EGC, it made a huge difference in off-idle acceleration and steady cruising. It runs so good, it's the only change I'm making to it. The XIEDs address the closed-loop AFR, changing from 14.7:1 to 13.8:1.
