Cruiser ! absolutly no intake or exhast leaks on my bike the bike does run cooler and throttle response is good, the only thing that urks me is the slight pop on decel and some up shifts. I agree it is hard to read plugs with todays epa set ups and fuels and my plugs are tested with plugs chops, not after a ride, if I read the plugs after Idel they look good. I have a differant set of mufflers that I am going to try and see if it is the Super Trapps doing this.  Thanks Doc

Just a happy small report.  I have an O8 Ultra and just realized that on the last few rides, I have not felt any heat on my right calf.  With the IED's I got some heat, not much, but with the XlED's none.

Hiflyer,
Must have something to do with the mods I have done(see signature). I also make sure my tires have 38psi rear and 32 front, I run irridium spark plugs, I am in the highest gear feasable at all times and I rode the trip solo with all my stuff in the chase car. I use Lucas fuel injector cleaner every 4th tank and seldom hot rod my scoot. Other than that it musta been the "made in China calculator.

No mods.... IED's would be fine. XIED's are better but richer.

Slight mods such as A/C, Pipes and above.....XIED's

Depends on what your running?

Did you try them with out  the PC III?  Seems everyone that does like them does not have another fuel management in the system.  I am running A/C and pipes as well as a 103 kit and am very happy with mine so far.  Re gapped my plugs this morning to .044 and put around 200 miles on today a am pleased as hell about the way she is running.  Thank you every one for all the info and testing with input and opinions, great product.

I was wondering how you made out with the 103. Glad to hear they worked out for you.

How do you exlain this ? My 2007 FXDL with S E air cleaner and SE slip ons plus the download done by the dealership was getting 37 MPG before Xied's. With the Xied's I am getting 42.9 MPG. I ran 2 tanks of gas through it to make sure. I keep coming up with 42 plus MPG. The bike runs a lot better with the Xied's and feels like it runs cooler but in theory my fuel consumption should have gotten worse not better.

+1 on what mike and cruiser said.

Same theory as regular and hi octane gas. More AFR = bigger bang. This only works to a certain point then your having so much fun, you end up twisting the throttle more.

Hey guys, I think I know the answer to this but just want to be clear about something. These devices are simply installed inline at the ONE connection. NOT removing the portion of harness that goes from O2 to first connector? Right? (Looks like the O2 sensor has built in wire harness.) Before receiving them, and not having looked at it, I had it in my mind that you are replacing that first harness due to the length of the devices I saw in the diagram and photos posted here. Anyway thanks for any responses! I'm about to do my own testing and just received an IR thermometer. Will post results. Thanks! Ride safe!

Does anyone have a dyno on these XIED's that shows AFR before and after comparison to really see if they do the 14.7:1 down to 13.8:1 during the closed loop?

I'm having my bike dynoed some time next week(dealer is having a dyno special this month) and will see what it is stock with slip ons, and then I will order the XIEDs, and have it dynoed again!

Yes, they are just installed inline, no removing of any harness.

kdietz & beerguytx,

Does the bike seem to run cooler?

Take the bike out on a long run (in the heat) on the open road and stop and go traffic.

Remove the XiED's and go on same run and see if you notice any difference.

We had low 90's yesterday while I rode her bike....the heat isn't an issue while riding at all.....just on the infrared gauge

We're not disappointed with the way the bike runs....smoother, better roll on power....fuel mileage yet to be seen

Karl,

I know that my bike in the upper 90's with the lower fairings still on will run in the high 200's on the front & mid 300's on the rear cylinder. This is running at highway speed and stoping and quickly checking the temps.

If I check after I am in traffic & signals the temps are low 300's front & high 300's rear when I stop and check the temp.

I don't know if my gauge is correct but I do know that the bike is a lot cooler with the XiED's on.

I do know that my bike will be hotter than a bike without lowers because I have dead air behind the lowers and that can't help with cooling the front or back cylinder.

This is from Rider57. He did this test for Steve just before the XIED's were released. He might have an updated one. It shows the HP. There was one other I thought, but I didn't save it. Rider works at an EPA lab (i think) so I'm not sure if he has access to a dyno for TQ.

He may have one that shows both. I'm not sure? This does show the differences in HP with different set ups. Look through the earlier posts. I thought I seen one, but it could have been a copy and paste thing from HD on what the Stage 1 does now that I think of it?

Does this help?

I would double check all connections and if they are all OK I would test the XiED's.

On Nightriders web site he has instructions how to do that.

From Nightriders Web Site:

Testing the NBO2 Inline Enrichment Device off and on the bike
If at any time you think your O2 IED is not working properly, you should first make sure the connectors are properly plugged in and are tight. If you still feel there is an issue, you need to remove it from the bike first. Test your O2 IED with a 1.5V battery, 2 paper clips and a volt meter. First you need to check the battery to make sure it is producing 1.5V. Open up the paper clips and install them into the female connector (wiring harness side). Touch the battery to the paper clips so the (+) side is on the blue wire site and the (-) on the grey side. Touch the voltmeter to the male connectors (wiring harness side). You should see 1.00 to .90 volts or about 30% less than the battery voltage. If the correct voltage is present, the O2 IED is working correctly.
 
 
You can also check your O2 IED on the bike.
Disconnect the O2 IED at the wiring harness connector. Your O2 IED will still be connected to the oxygen sensor. Start the engine up, letting it warm up for 2-3 minutes. With a voltmeter connected to the two pins in the connector, check the voltage. Normal voltage should be .250 to .750 volts with the engine running. If there is no voltage at the O2 IED pins, disconnect the O2 IED from the oxygen sensor. Check the voltage at the sensor pins. Normal voltage should be .250 to .750 volts. If there is no voltage at the oxygen sensor, the oxygen sensor is bad. If there is voltage at the oxygen sensor, but not at the O2 IED, then the O2 IED needs replacement.

Beerguy, I have an FLHX like your wife.  I am running the XIED's.  Hottest day I have ridden so far was 94 degrees.  Front cylinder was 280 degrees, and rear was 300 ~ 305 at the hottest reading.  I've never seen my Bike go over 305 since I put the XIED's on it.  Before with another fuel mngt device I was running 350 degrees on a 60 degree day.  But not with the XIED's. 

Those are hot temps for your wifes bike.  Something isn't right.

So after 40 pages we have scientifically concluded that the XIED either works or it doesn't.
