S/E Heavy Breather + TTS Mastertune + dyno = good!
Ever since I got my 2004 Fatboy, I worried about it runnning too lean. The guy I bought it from had made some minor mods (pipes and a K&N air filter in the stock housing), but never bothered getting it remapped. It seemed like it ran pretty good, but because I was worried about the bike running too lean, I tended to baby it and was reluctant to ride it hard.
Finally I did what I should have done when I first got the bike; I took to the Cycledoctor in Costa Mesa, CA and got it dyno tuned. At the same time I added an S/E Heavy Breather and went ahead and spent the extra bucks on a TTS Mastertune. Geoff Gaites, the Cycledoctor owner and dyno operator told me I would be happy with the investment and he was right. It doesn't even sound like the same bike. The exhaust note is so much cleaner and crisper. The little flat spot just above idle is competely gone making the bike so much smoother and easier to ride in super slow speed situations. It was like getting a new bike, but without the monthly payment.
The best part for me is that I can now ride the crap out of my bike and not worry about that darn air/fuel ratio. In fact, I took it for a little 80 mile spin down Pacific Coast Highway earlier today and I'm still smiling (apologies in advance to my snowbound Harley brothers and sisters).
