Couldn't find an answer to the question with search, so here it is. Is there a learning time for this product? Is the adjustment they make instantaneous, or done over time/miles? If so, how long to settle in?

Thanks!

I had a Xied on my Heritage before trading for my Dyna. Yes, there was about a 150 ish mile learning curve for the ECM to dial itself back in. Once it was done there was a definite improvement in the bike. I recommend them if riders can't throw cash at a high cost tuner. If just doing pipes and AC you plug and ride. I may get the updatd one when the time comes for my Dyna.

I just installed VIED-FL and took a short ride(108F outside). Seemed stronger down low, but in 6th on freeway, almost seemed too rich. I am stock and set @ 50%.

I had the older ones for 07-11's and it was a plug and go. These new ones get tweaked here and there. I'm looking at the VH FP3 for my Dyna

Thanks!
All XiED products work as follows-

The closed loop adjustments are nearly instantaneous, might take 10 miles to "settle in".

The open loop changes are gradual, over multiple on/off cycles, and around 200 miles.

See more details by going to this LINK, clicking on the one you have, and then looking at the description and charts.

I don't think my old Xieds will fit my new Dyna. I thought they would reading Nightrider's website, but don't see how. Connections look different unless I'm seeing things...

I have a set of Xieds that I used on my 14' Fatbob for a few months before I got a tuner. I bought them here from another member. If anyone is looking for a set shoot me a message.
