Default Thundermax map question

I have used the search and re-read many threads & also contacted zippers but they are closed.
I am sure this must have been ask 100 times atleast but I cannot find a map for my 09 fatboy it really is a basic setup - stock 96"/2.75" air and 2" Rush slip-ons , BASIC but all the maps I look at are for a 16" wheel and my fatboy has 17" wheels, does that make a difference? or ??


Colin

update: I have decided to try base map 524 and change the speedo cal to 42000 ( touring 17" wheel) as it seems to be the newest and closest to my setup.

I have an 08 Fat Boy, same exhaust, and stage 1 a/c. Both Zippers and FuelMoto had me go with the 401 map. Works fine for me!

aqua754 thanxs for the reply,
did you change the speedo cal? I see it defaults to 42450 which is 16" wheel, I honestly don't know if it makes any differance.

thanxs for the reply tk353,
I have the stock 17" on my fatboy.
I open up the map and speedo cal and it say its for a 16" wheel in brackets. I see the option for a 17" touring which is the 42000.
I will use 401 as it's thats what you guys are using with no issues.
I have the thundermax digital speedo also thats why i was concerned about the 42450 saying 16" wheel.
I will load it today.
appreciate the advice guys.

Colin

let us know how you like the speedo. i was thinking of getting one for all the things it tells you.
be sure to follow the instructions for the programing. update the firmware first and the software program next.
then i load the map and turn the ignition off for 30 seconds and then on 30, off 30, on 30, off 30, on 30 off 30. then start and run 10 seconds, off 15, then start another 10 seconds. then run the auto iac as the bike warms to 274 it will write to the module. then let the bike cool and go ride for about 100 miles, then run the new auto adjust from the Tmax control center.
the instructions are harder to read then it is to use it.
