Stage 1 Air Cleaner kit
I am trying to get a general consesus of what I NEED to do in order to keep my 2011 Wide Glide at its best. When it comes to the engine it is pretty much stock except for the slip-ons that I put on it. I'm in need of an air cleaner an was thinking of upgrading to a stage 1 screaming eagle kit. The guy at the HD dealership told me all I would have to do is bolt it on and go without anything worry. I have also done research and have read that a stage one download is needed to have the bike running in prestine condition. I have also read that a fuel pack would do the trick as well as a SE street tuner. Ultimately I want to do what is best for the bike but I don't want to overpay either. I do understand that spending money comes with the territory but I also like to be informed when I do. Any help is appreciated.

If all you are going to do is add an air cleaner to the slip-ons, you will be good to go without any download. If you change out the header to one without the converter, then you'll have to purchase a fuel adjustment device or dealer download to enrichen the AFR.

Talk to these guys.
Got a tuner from them (just the EFI) and made my bike run alot better even
before I did the stage one. Spark plugs went from a white to a nice brown (as it should be), noted better performance too.
Though, mine is an '05, and doesn't have O2 sensors and stuff, so you'rs might not NEED a tuner, but man, for me it made a big difference. Alot on this forum will reccommend fuel moto as well. They know their stuff!
