power commander and fuel mileage
#21
My stage 1 carbed Wide Glide consistantly got 34-35 and I babied it. My Ultra is stage 1 with PCIII USB, stock pipes, Rinehart slips and an SE AC - I get between 36 and 40 and I baby it too. I would be happy to get 50, but I just don't see that happening. I am getting ready to pull the stage 1 but leave the slipons to see if I can even notice a power, mileage and rideability difference. I am a very mellow rider so I am guessing I won't notice anything, but who knows.
Well, after sitting in traffic for less than 5 minutes in the South Texas heat, the bike was detonating with the stock ECM and A/C. Of course everyone told me the bike would run leaner, but I guess I had to experience it for myself. Mileage went to 44.9, but I can sacrifice that for the motor running cooler. So...back to stage one and bike runs just fine. The O2 sensor eliminators are in the mail from Dynojet so will install those when they get here this week. I will post my map in a couple of days so someone can tell me if it's appropriate.
I should have listened to ya'll, but live and learn, right?!
