Wow. Thanks for posting this!

 

very interesting. Thanks for the post.

 

Wish I had a dollar for every time I've said this....

 

Safetyman,
Did you notice any change in gas consumption when you installed your tuner? I have read mixed results where some claim better mileage and some say worse.

I plan on leaving everything stock except perhaps the mufflers, but that won't happen right away.

 

I show you would have about $4,800 of those dollars.


Not very scientific being that this is more than posts you have....

I'm not Safetyman, but an excellent tune, with everything else stock, will yield more power and better MPG than bone stock.

These come from the factory so lean that they are operating inefficiently, requiring more twist of the throttle to get out of it's own way.

An excellent tune will have it operating at peak efficiency so that you don't need to twist the throttle nearly as much to accomplish the same result.

Of course, most of us like to play with the extra power, that is when the MPG go down.

Power Vision Package is what we use for great tunes.

XiED's are also a great value for budget constraints, and will have a stock to Stage 1 bike running much better than a download.

 

My fuel consumption on this bike has been just shy of 40.

I'm sure I can get it a bit better, My last bike, 2011 FLTRU, with TTS ran around 43mpg average, and one day, on one trip, one tank running the interstate I got 49mpg, loaded down with all the Mrs. and I's luggage, she was riding her Softail.

As DK said, a proper tune WILL improve the way your engine runs.

 

Safetyman what tuner are you using?
