We already have base calibrations developed for several combinations, we are currently waiting for parts from several manufacturers, everyone is busy developing their components. Our head pipes will be ready for testing this week and we will move forward from there. I will post some info from our muffler testing as well.

The testing we are doing on the Indian is just another part of our daily routine and just another of the many projects we have going on here. Testing does not stop on one one bike just because we work on another. We have a full staff here and always have alot going on, we share only bits and pieces most of the time.

As far as the PV product we expect to release it for the 17 bikes within about two weeks and there will be calibrations ready from the get go. 2017 M8 support is ready for roll out, in fact if there are any professional tuners here that have 17 bikes they would like to tune we can get you maps and beta software to use, just contact me.

As far as who is ahead of who and who's product does what; it's all speculation and some are trying to dramatize it, nothing has been released publicly from anyone other than H-D at this time. Looking forward to see the various products and individual features.

I'm far from an expert on these things, I probably just misunderstood.
Fuel Moto is a direct technical partner with Dynojet, we work closely together on product testing, functionality, documentation, calibrations and other aspects of business and product development.

TTS is tuning the 2017's with HD's stage kits. Their dyno sheets are posted over in the Dyno Room (publicly). There hasn't been anything posted from DJ (publicly) with those kits. I don't see how that is dramatizing anything. Just a fact.

Dynojet has never posted any of their testing on a forum, and they have not tested any of the 2017 SE parts either. The "drama" i was referring to was based on your comment that the other company is "light years ahead" of DJ, a pretty strong assumption as Dj has not publicly posted anything so how would you know, see what i mean about dramatizing? Regardless, we do wish the other products that will come to the same market best of luck, its what drives competition.

What can you say to this? Fuel Moto is obviously a great company. I will buy more of their products in the future. Please keep the info coming...

Couldn't have said it better. FuelMoto is my go to place now. As a matter of fact I just purchased my Basani Road Rage 2-1 from FM and I got the tune to go with my combo. Best price I could find as well...not to mention their Labor Day sale!

My opinion was based on what has been posted on this forum. From those postings, it appears to me, that TTS is lights years ahead. Not drama or an assumption. Just a fact.

You indicated that you are a DJ technical partner and have already developed calibrations for the M8. Post up the dyno sheets for those calibrations that you developed.

See what I mean by not dramatizing.

Really looking forward to what this new engine is capable of. Been missing having a fairing and was seriously looking into getting a road glide when the M8s we're announced. I love my road king, but just put about 20 miles on a 17 Road Glide yesterday thanks to my local dealer. The suspension on my king is already upgraded, but the suspension on the 17 I rode is so much better. And the engine... While not as strong as my king, it's the strongest stock harley I've ridden. My only bitch is the clutch isn't as predictable as what I have and takes some serious getting used to. All in all, loved the 17 I tested.

Thanks to FM/Jamie for the information... Keep up the great work.

Glad to see this thread is back on track. I'm curiously awaiting every post by FM.



So-Which oil is best?
