No, but I wish I knew more about it... first time I've seen it and looks like it would be a good bang for the buck on my wife's new '12 StreetBob.. fitment says it would work with her bike.

Claims to use the stock ECU and stock O2 sensors

• The only "closed loop" fuel management system that utilizes the factory Delphi ECU and factory sensors• It'll give an increase in horsepower and torque up to 20% while working in conjunction with both factory and race tuner downloads
• It maximizes performance and efficiency while decreasing emissions and fuel consumption
• Uses both factory O2 sensor


It is my understanding that in order to actually get the most out of a closed loop system you must use Broad Band or Broad Range O2 sensors (stock are narrow range). Looks like they took a short cut and turned the use of stock sensors into a selling feature. I would let someone be the guinea pig.

Fits only on the 2012 models with the 103 engine, I thought those had a different ECM and use broad range heated O2 sensors.

I could be wrong, I have not found where the 2012 uses broad range O2 sensors.

Can you post a link?

Thanks

There is more than one model. The one in the link below comes with a O2 sensor. One of you more knowledgeable guys ought to call them to get the straight poop.

I checked their web site, no mention of broad range sensors in the 2012 models, but they do monitor two sensors. Most of their products monitor one narrow range sensor in the rear header pipe.

Sorry for delay, had to search for the link, it's in the 2012 model year Technical dealer presentation.

here is the link where you can download it:

http://www.box.net/shared/d2g4qk9d1nrphoz3h6i1

It's on page 13 for softail models and gets mentioned on couple more pages.
They change from 2-wire O2 sensors to 4-wire heated O2 sensors. Might be they are still narrow band ...
