Default FP3 Tuner

Installed Freedom Performance Patriots on my 2016 Fatboy S and also installed V&H FP3 tuner. They dont have a map for this particular exhaust. I was thinking its comparable to the VH Big shots so I tried that map thinking it would be closest to what I have and I'm still getting slight popping. Haven't tried auto tune yet either.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Call V & H. They have great customer service and will suggest and, if need be, customize a map.

Hi, you can start with the lowest setting in the Decel Pop tab that is in the Air and Fuel settings. There are 4 options, off, 1 being the next lowest, 2 and 3 being the highest amount of decel backfire control. I believe this adjustment is basically adding a bit more fuel in off throttle situations other than standing still and idling.

OP, please connect to your bike then go to Customer Support and press Upload. Shoot me an email once that's done with your VIN and remind me of your setup. I'll adjust the map and send it back to you.

Great I will take a look at that. Not getting any decent weather right now to take even a short ride though. 😫

Only picture I have is with no heat shields on it because the heat shields were sent to me damaged. For some reason the video I have wont post because of the format.
