Default Question on a 2015 Tri Glide Stage 1 and Tune

My new Tri Glide is being stored for the winter. I am putting on a SE Air and Cannon Slip ons. Can this bike be tuned or is there a special download? Or, does anything need to be done to the computer. Thanks Guys

I did SE big air, Rinehart 4' ovals and download at the 1k service. Took the slug out of the tri glide. I have a 14 tri glide. Jim

If you want to stay away from warranty issues you'll have the stage 1 download performed by the dealer. The download more or less just increases the rev limiter, it doesn't add much fuel. With the air box redesign starting with the 2014MY, a stock engine doesn't really gain much advantage with a bigger air cleaner. You won't feel the difference in the seat of the pants, any difference would have to be measured on a dyno, its such an insignificant change.

Agree. The 14/15 Air Cleaner is far superior to the preceding years. If all you are doing is changing the mufflers you do not need any reprogramming. If you are changing out the cat pipes for non-cats and new mufflers then "possibly" a tune might be needed.

If you are doing the A/C, non-cats, and free flow mufflers ... then YES a reprogram will be needed.

Until you get 3K on your motor it is still breaking in and will run a little hot.

I have 6600 on my 2014 and it runs great and sounds much better than new. My exhaust is stock.

YOU HAVE GOT TO GET MILEAGE ON YOUR TRIKE! The more miles I get the better Roxy runs.
