Rear Cylinder Cut Out
Does any one know if on the newer Dyna's the EITMS system has to be enabled by the dealer or do the Dyna's have that system working from the factory?
Is this a feature that is good to have working in the summer months?

My 2016 LRS has the EITMS enabled from delivery and has kicked in while sitting in traffic...and yes I think its an excellent feature to have anything that will protect your motor from overheating can't be a bad thing.

EITMS is purely for rider comfort. When it
activates and shuts off the rear cylinder, its
not because the motor is overheating. Its
designed to reduce the heat radiating from
the rear cylinder to the rider.

Just so everyone is clear, the EITMS has absolutely nothing to do with engine temperature management; the EITMS was designed for 'rider comfort', it has nothing to do with overheating of the engine, it was designed to reduce the heat felt by the rider from the rear cylinder; it's simply another solution in search of a problem...
