Well, I compared TFI, PCIII, SERT, V&H Fuelpak and the SERF--and decided to go with the SERF--Screamin Eagle Race Fueler. The primary reason is--my buddy who does my work (gratis)is a Harley service tech and prefers the SERF. I also decided to go with Glider's plan and use the SE stage one (parts) and use the K&N filter. Together with my SE slipons (older style) I should be fixed.

One decision I want to make before spring--if the heat situation isn't changed with the richer mixture, I'll go with either the Harley MidFrame Air Deflectors or the RJS heat shields. The RJS are much better looking--but they are pricey. I'll spend the next couple months making a decision on that. I'd like to hear from anyone using the Air Deflectors. There are several that are constantly pushing RJS--so no need for that--unless you have tried both and can compare by experience.

BTW--I ride an 08 Ultra--black (the fast one)!

Merry Christmas.

My friend installed the HD deflectors and I think they look way less obtrusive than the others. He says they work well but were a bitch to install.

 

I've heard the same....The MoCos is nice, but a Beeyatch to isntall. I put the RJS on mine....easy install....looks good.....satisfied customer.

 

I heard from someone else that they were buggers to install. But--you say they look less obtrusive? That's surprising. From pics, the RJS look more natural. But I've not seen them in person.

 

RJS for me

 

Do they look as good on your bike as they do on the promo pics on the website?

 

The heat situation will be fixed.

 

Is there no way to flash, reprogram, or adjust the original ECM to richen the mix??

You'll have to ask someone more knowledgeble than I--but all the tech guys I've discussed the 08's with have told me the same thing--I need a fuel mangagment thingy to enrich the mixture. I don't know whyit can't be tweaked to make a richer mixture. Maybe someone who knows will tell us why. I know the EPA won't like it; but if we did what they wanted, none of us would have aftermarket exhausts.
