My SERT came today. Already hooked it up to the bike and tested it out. No probs yet. The Stealer says they contacted the moco about my request for new injectors and they'll call me in 10 days. I had the recall work done this week and picked my bike up today. I'm very disappointed in my dealer because they tried to hit me up for $35 for warranty work. I refused to pay and the service manager refused to come talk to me. They just waved the charges. It was a small shot at some free money. I'm tempted to call the moco and report them, but I guess I better wait and see how this injector thing works out before I totally burn that bridge.
I'm planning to do a data mode run tomorrow and see how the bike looks on the SERT. After that, I'll create a custom map. It got too dark to get it all finished today. BTW - You can get the CVO injectors for $57 each from Zanottis. They are easy to install.

RE: fuel injector changes on 06s
with the front end clunk they said they tightend head stem bolts,but when i got it home and pushed it into the shed i could still hear same noise.i wont bother taking it back b4 injector change over,2-3 weeks.this in the land down under mind you. its about 36degrees(90-95f)here today and i believe with s&s slip ons,download and SE a/c it would probably be too hot to ride in this lean state so decided 2 have some good aussie beer till cools down.in land of OZ we also do not get closed loop efi(international models) have sert but had 2 cancel my dyno tune until injectors changed.major backfiring/popping on deceleration.surging upto 35ml/hr in 2nd gear.

Can you post the map you end up with? It would really be a big help if we can go to the dealer with the map already done on a CD. I would think the MoCo would stage1 a Dyna and either publish the new map or send it to all the dealers so there is some standard to work off of.

RE: fuel injector changes on 06s
I need to come clean here. Sme of this has gone beyond me. I am a adequate "wrench' in the sense I can disassemble and assemble most mechanical things. I operate equipment and heavy trucks and do the preventive type maintenance and wear out replacement work on them.
That being said all the talk on the 8 degree vs 25 degree injectors has me baffled.
serts?
maps?
Stage 1 Stage 2.
can someone on this forum direct me to a site where I can get more versed in all this. I wouldn't presume to have it all explained in a post as iIam sure it is mentioned in a multitude of posts and responses.
Is there a source I can go to to educate myself on all this.
the info on this forum is great.. I need to get up to speed to be able to understand what you guys are talking about.
I have a 06 Bob that is in for recall tranny work, had some Cycle Shack slip-ons installed.
I have on occassion noticed the surging at low-constant speed.... a rare cold start issue.. it has 3500 miles on it
Is this something to bring to my dealers attention? He still has my bike.
my last bike was a"47" panhead.. "47" frame extended springer.. "58" panhead engine.. milled heads.. straight pipes ... had to get my brother to throw me off off the roof of our house just to "kick" the thing over... yeah where the hell did kick starts go??
I sold it in 1969 cause we had a kid.. was always gonna get another one.. well..
That kid is now 37 and the old man has gotten a bike again..its just these are a different breed.. hell it hasn't even marked its spot yet..(leaked oil)
Thanks for any info here guys.. I am learning more as i read each forum post...
