Throttle response
I have a 2006 heritage classic efi with se air cleaner vance and hines pro pipe and pciii, when i crack the throttle it seems to come down slow compared to carb models. Is this normal.
The set screw behind the throttle body? Yes I tried adjusting that before I found out it won't do anything for a fast idle.

manuals are about $80 well worth it.

You could have it dyno tuned... espically with intake/exaust mods. A PowerCommander is a great investment, and you would have the option to have a simple map downloaded or a custom map made for you bike. or maybe a professional could just direct link to it and set each throttle position.
