Default Help with ThunderMax

Posted a thread over in the Electrical/Ignition/Tuner/ECM/Fuel Injection section of the forum ... as of this posting time and date, there are 35 'views' and -0- 'replies' ... maybe I'm posting in the wrong section ...?

Original thread ... following up on another thread embeded in that post ... had posted up some of the data from my ThunderMax w/ AutoTune (TMAT) ... I am looking for experience/feedback from other TMAT users ... link is here:

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/elect...data-call.html

I am just looking to 'compare notes' ... I was curious to see the significant spike (concentration) of time at or around idle speed ... I have not consciously just started up my bike and sat there in the driveway/parking lot idling ... okay, I'll admit I posted a video on YouTube of my bike at idle ... but, I don't sit and let my bike warm up for 5 minutes every time I start up (on the contrary ... rarely sit more than about 30 seconds before shifting into gear and taking off) ....

Well, if any TMAT users have downloaded their data and are willing to share their experience, thanks in advance ... I appreciate it ....

R/
'Chop

Example of RPM log and Head Temp log graph ....



The graph was done by taking the data file from the Module (it saves a copy as an Excel file) and using the graphing function of the Microsoft Excel program ... then, saving a 'screen shot' of the graph as a JPG file ... if you're interested in further details, let me know ....

I have a T-Max on my bike too.

I have found that the site with the BEST help, and the site I go to with all my T-Max issues and questions is Harley Tech Talk.

http://harleytechtalk.org/

Join up, introduce yourself and post your model, make, build and what you are trying to do. There are several T-Max Gurus there to include "Mayor", "Rbabos", and "DennisTheMenace" to name a few. These guys helped me nail down EVERY ThunderMax tuning question or issue I ever had.

Good Luck and I'll look for you there.
