Hi people, I've searched this forum and didn't get a complete answer to my question. Hoping someone here can help.

I recently installed Big Shots Staggered and the FP3 on my 15 Deluxe.
I used the recommended map for my machine.
My question is this. Since installation I have experienced an almost unbearable significant vibration during low end acceleration. Is this something you may have a recommendation or solution


Thanks for you help

 

If everything is tight I would be making an appointment with a tuning specialist. Canned maps are just that and don't take in all the parameters your bike might have.

 

Run the Auto Tune feature several times. If this doesn't correct the problem call V&H tech support.

Note: All MAPs provided for the FP3 are built for Stage 1, free flowing air intakes. You did not mention if you changed out the stock intake.

 

It's sounds crazy, but check all the exhaust connections and see that it isn't rubbing against something.

 

I upgraded the air cleaner to K&N Hi Flow filter per the recommendation of my online retailer.

 

I agree, try running Auto Tune, each time your done riding hit "apply" after a tank of gas hit "finish" It doesn't adjust air/fuel until finish is selected.

 

Autotune is a good suggestion.

I would go back to your original tune and see if the vibration is gone. If it is, then you know it is the tune, if it is not, then start looking at other possibilities...exhaust, improperly installed A/C, etc.

What RPM are you at when experiencing this vibration? Perhaps the RPM is too low (shifting too soon).

 

Mostly the vibration is noticeable in 3rd or higher gears @ 2500+ rpm while aggressively accelerating. When I ease up on the throttle and increase speed gradually all is smooth.

 

I had a new exhaust put on a Ultra I used to have. After the install, part of a Stage 1, it vibrated terribly. It turned out that the exhaust was installed to close to the frame and was taking all that engine vibration and sending it everywhere. They adjusted it and all was well.

 

You guys rock. Thanking everyone for their ideas. I am certain everything is installed correctly so I'm gonna start with a restore of the original map, then move on to autotune. If that doesn't do it, I suppose I will have to take it to my dealer.
