Default Expert advice?

Hey guys. Just had the S&S a/c fitted and the Indie I use downloaded the codes for the V&H fuelpak. Bikes running smoother than it was and picks up a whole lot quicker, question I have is this: When I engage 1st and let out the clutch the bike cruises along at 10mph without any throttle. Is this normal? If anybody knows its going to be one of you guys.

I would call V&H to get a tech to tell what your problem is, that way he can tell you the problem. This way he can give you the right numbers to install in the fuelpak.

That was going to be my next step once I'd tried the question out here. Just wondered whether any of the guys with V&H fuelpaks could let me know about their experiences...

I cant help with the fuelpak, but I will tell you this:
I run a bone stock 08, and idling out in first gear is 10 mph. So its normal. The fuelpak shouldnt change your idle speed

As said the Fuel Pak should not affect the tickover.Is the idle speed is the same as before when the bike is up to running temperature.If it is then i,d assume things are ok. Daft question but you are up to temperature, as when cold the ecm sets a faster idle speed that does give similar symtoms.
