Gutting Cats - the real facts

If you say so. Clearly you don't understand how fuel injection works, or you'd understand that XIEDs do nothing for your bike other than fooling your ECM to inconsistently lower the AFR across part of the map. Companies like NightRider make a ton of money feeding off of low-hanging fruit like yourself.
Like I said, I don't have any skin in this game at all. I make no money on any tuning device you may or may not buy, nor do I care whether or not you believe me. You can take the time to educate
yourself (try HTT), or you can follow the herd and throw your money away on snake oil. Your choice, doesn't effect me.

No dog in the fight but, if you could plug your ECM into a computer and read what the Xied's are doing, you'll see his point. Do they work? In a short answer, yes. Can you kill an ant with a sledgehammer? Yes, but there are much more intelligent and better ways to do so which save you the time and effort...

Yes, there are better way's to do it but it cost a lot more. Nobody has said that Xied's are a Tuner. I've been running them on Three different touring bikes since 09. I've got 25K miles on the 2010 RK in my sig pic with not one problem running Steve Mullen's FL-XIED-10's. My wife ran them for 22K on her 2010 SG Trike, and now has 8K on her 2012 Triglide. All bikes Stage 1 A/C and slipon's. Bike's run great! No codes! No Pinging! No decel popping, just flat out run good. I did a lot of research before buying them the first time. I saw the test Niterider did and talked to some People who had already bought and run the Xied's. I'm satisfied with them. So are a lot of other forum member's. In fact, this forum only makes up a small number of Steve's rather large number of satisfied customer's.
The difference is in the details. "Rider Joe" wants a bike that runs smooth with zero codes after a stage 1 upgrade, Xieds could be the perfect solution. "Rider Jeff" wants his bike at its peak performance after an identical upgrade, the Xieds are not the perfect solution. Apples to apples? Not quite.

15 years of tuning fuel injected Fords, 5 years of tuning fuel injected Harleys, and a basic understanding of how fuel injection works. He shills a product, I have nothing to lose or gain based on what tuning device anyone uses.
If you believe that a $3 worth of wires and resistors packaged and sold for $100 will make your bike run as well as an actual tuner, then by all means use it.

Here you are calling People that buy them low hanging fruit? Your a real piece of work!!! Give it up!!

No knocking the product at all. I actually agree with you. I'm sure it works in getting the bike to run without serious issues.

Absolutely, read all the post about all the money spent and some still having problems getting the Tuner's right. I'm not putting tuner's down or anybody using them. If I were to do a big bore with cams, I would invest in a TTS or a Thundermax Tuner.
