Hi - I have an '08 Wide Glide, and since I'm new to the Twin Cam 96, I have a question about balancing the throttle bodies. (I have a Ducati and had a BMW, and they were pretty straight forward). Basically, does the Twin Cam motor require balancing the throtlle bodies? If so, does anyone have any info on how to do it?

 

No... there is only one throttle body, therefore it does not need balancing like a multi-carb setup would.

 

Thanks! Told you I was new to the twin cam! My other bikes had separate throttle bodies, hence the (stupid) question...

 

Not stupid at all. When you are used to things being one way, you tend to think that is how it is.

P.S. Look at the Viper.....what years have one and what years have two? See what I mean?

 

The only stupid question is the one never asked...

If you want to optimize the performance of your bike, you can go with a tuner (either a Dynojet PowerCommander, Harley's Screamin Eagle Race Tuner (SERT), or others), plus a better flowing air cleaner and exhaust. Easy mods, helps the bike perform better, and sometimes even sound better!

 

With a PCIII usb you can trim each cylinder's fuel mixture to each cylinder injector with the trim function on the PCIII, + or - 5% .
