xied's will defiantly help. My indy swears by them. Do/did you have cats in your head pipe?

Yes, you will be pleasantly surprised how much better your bike will run.

You can see all the details on them HERE.

i have no cat in pipes since its an 08. is there any downside to xied,s. is it a simple install. so far nothing negative on thread but there is always a downside. any and all info appreciated since im definitively gonna have to do something about the lean condition. there is no popping on decel either. also is there a diffrence in vied vs. xied vs. x14ied. i noticed different models on website

I ran XEID's for the furst 6 months of my stage one...great product for the money.
The downside? It ain't a tuner, your bike could run a helluva lot better. I'm not just talking about horsepower, but the general cruisability of the bike.

So, good for now...save up for a tuner

good info. thats what im gonna do. spend the 99 bucks for now then next year get a good tuner. man these things run lean. no wonder there is some serious heat comin off harley davidsons. I know they're air cooled but even my old air cooled jap bikes back in the 70s didnt run that hot. All i know is that white plugs are not good and they should always be a light brown color. dont care what bike u own

For your set-up the XiED is best. It is a little richer than both the X14 and the ViED.
