Default Is This True?

I havewondered why Dynojet does not add fuel to the 0% cells at idle for cooling purposes,(Traffic) and found the followingon the Nightrider site. Is this true, does the stock ECU set the AFR at 12:1 at idle when the O2 sensors areeliminated. Thanks.


The use of O2 eliminators has become fairly common on the 2007 engines. When using an O2 eliminators supplied by PowerCommander, TFI, V&H Fuel Pak, etc., the engine idles at a very rich 12.0:1 AFR. This will reduce the engine temperature, but also reduces gas mileage 3-5MPG on an FLH and can result in excessive carbon buildup in the combustion chamber.

I haven't seen any SERT maps that have the 02 sensors on in the 0% TP....The sensors are usually off until 20kpa. The Fuel table has the AFR at 13.0 to 12.5 in the 0% column, some times it's at 13.5...it depends on the bike.
