Thundermax on CVO Limited
Bike is a 2014 CVO limited. About to put on a cat less headpipe I have to get rid of some heat and tossed the question to my dealership service manager about a tuner at the same time. He really leans towards the Thundermax for a tuner. I really trust this guy for his knowledge as he used to work for HD in research and development and his son is a dirt racer and has several bikes a year donated by sponsor KTM and he does all the work on these race bikes.
So has any of you used the Thundermax on a 103 or 110 engines and if so, were you satisfied with it. Tks

I have Thundermax and Rush true duals and air cleaner upgrade on 2014 limited
I am thrilled with performance and sound disappointed with gas mileage , it aint the extra 3 bucks its the range i hoped for. Thundermax installed at 1000 mile i ran auto tunes each at 1000 miles intervals i am at 3500 and will tune again today. mileage low around 30 ish moving to 35mpg hoping for 40 or better.
I did not do my homework and thought auto tune meant automatic but the tuning is simply remove seat, connect the computer to tuner, and run program , 10 minutes if you turn a wrench 20 for me!! Dealer [Kutter ] has been fantastic babying me thru the process and dealer expect the range to improve regularly. Again its only been a couple months and 2500 hundred miles and the bike goes and sounds great.

The answer to your low mpg is easy. All you need to do is make a few manual adjustment to your TM.
Simply raise your target AFR in the cruising range. For example, between 2200 to 3200 rpm and 15 to 35% throttle raise your target AFR to somewhere between 13.5 to 14.0. (stock is 14.7).
My TM is currently set to 13.7 AFR in the cruising range. I now average upper 30s around town and 43 - 44 mpg at 70 mph with the cruise set on the highway.
Easy peasy!
