Default Anyone have experience with Terry Fuel management???

apparently it does everything to compensate for getting actual dyno test and tuning, local dealer recommended it, apparently its soo good as your air filter gets plugged it compensates for that too adjusting fuel and air and there is NO WAY to alter it. All you do is plug it in and start modding your bike! Is this b.s or has anyone had success?

First I've seen or heard of it...
Its closed loop so not sure how it works better than factory CL system..

I do doubt the claim of 20% increase.....even my stg1 with pipes,; SE,A/C; SERT: and dyno only netted me about 10%....

I wonder what the A/F mixture ratio it is set to adjust to. Since it is preset that is the only way I can see it would work and be an improvement over the stock setup. On the pre 07 modules I wonder if you put in an 02 sensor bung if it works on those earlier years. Lots of questions but very interesting. Has your local dealer already installed these, or does he want you to be the guinea pig? lol Pick the dealers head on how they work and what years. They are from England?

I've had mine for about a year and wouldn't recommend it. As the top link that Keithhu provided, mine has the occasional fast idle syndrome. Sometimes can ride all day without occurrence, others it'll get me PO'd enough to wanna park it. Thing that scares me about the high idle is the TV3 could be making it lean to cause this. IDK?
My engine mods. are only the V&H and air cleaner, so I felt a simple tuner such as the TV3 would be sufficient. I feel I wasted money as I will replace it with something supported by their users. Lots of happy people running different ones!

Actually the guy at the dealer has it on his wifes deluxe and his new indian chief, he says it works great, im only skeptical due to the fact that it has outlandish claims and no real customers to back it up.

I've had one for about 20,000 miles and it has worked so far. Its not the best tuner out there. I know my bike could run much better with a better tuner. But for now it suffices. I've been trying to figure out the high idle problem for a while, suspected my tuner. I'm looking at getting TTS mastertune in the spring.

'Cause he's to lazy to do a tune!
Do your research and you'll find that you don't wanna waste your money on a TV3. Others are more expensive as is a good tune, but you'll get better results. That's what I'd do, if there was 'do overs'.

ya thats exactly what i figured. When i started modding my lightning i used a diablosport predator tuner with the pre-programmed tune it was nice, but when i got it dyno tuned it made a huuuge difference, imo it utilized the modifications to their full potential. So im guessing same idea with my bike, when i start to mod it further i will do a TTS mastertune on a dyno.

I did some more reading and it appears there are more negatives than positives about this tuner. I would stay away from it. Support doesn't look good either.
