2011 Wide Glide remap?
Installed Cobra exhaust on my 2011 wide glide. Runs great. No popping or backfireing. Didnt have to do a remap. Going to put on an Arlen Ness big sucker air cleaner. Will I have to do a remap? How can I tell if its running lean?

Lean conditions mean heat. If you feel the bike is running hotter than its lean. Or read the plugs. A whitish color on the plugs mean lean condition.

It's already quite lean in stock form, so letting more air in makes it worse. Some folks do the stage 1 with no remap and say it's fine, but I'd recommend tweaking it just to be on the safe side. Plus, with the cash you've spent on the pipes and air cleaner, a new fuel map will maximize your gains.
By the way, what seat is that and how do you like it?

Thanks Redbeard. The seat is from J & P Cycles. Its called the Preadator with flame stitching. Much bettter then stock. Very comfortable with a little lower back support. Looks good and feels good if your riding solo.

I would recommend the Auto Tune in addition to the PC-V. Uses wide-band o2 sensors to maximize the mix and update the map continuously while riding. Next best thing to a tune on a dyno, IMO.
And definitely go with Fuel Moto. They are continuously running these things on the dyno, with all sorts of different combos. They have maps in their database that will get you as close as possible without requiring a dyno tune, excellent pricing, and lifetime remap support. If you decide to cam it or bore it later on, you'll have only to get an appropriate map for your PC-V from them, load it, and be on your way.
I really like those risers! Is that with the stock bars? I want some!

The risers are 6 1/2" pullbacks made for the 1 1/4" bars. Yes they are stock handlebars. They give me a more comfortable riding position.

If you want the performance out of the things you putted on you should buy a tuner.
If you dont care let it that way It might run lean and hot but they can handle it, lots of people let it alone.
