12 Slim Idle Management??
I bought my bike thinking it had the Idle Management on it. Knowing i had to go to a dealer to get it turned on. When I got my first service done I asked the dealer to turn it on, and they said your bike doesnt have it. On harleys website it says it has it??? Im confused at this point. Does anyone know for sure wether it has it or not?

Are you talking about "parade mode"? I always thought it was only the touring models that had it. I wouldn't turn it on, even if I had it. I'd do what I could to bring the heat down manually, first, such as stage I, quality fuel management system, etc. If that didn't bring the heat down to my satisfaction, I'd probably look into a good oil cooler.

Thats exactly what i was thinking misbehaven. Im selling my car this weekend so ill have some cash to blow. So i was thinking about V&H pro pipe with Thunder max autotune, but Tmax doesnt have it out yet. Reading the fine print it say that it is avalible for pre order but it uses 18mm o2's but the 12 model years use 12mm so can i order pipes for say a 11 model year and still work with my bike. Yea i know this prob aint the place for this reply but figured while i was here...what the hey. thanks for any help yall can give me.

I as U find some things hard to find answers for...
The parade mode as I know it for the Touring bikes means U can roll Ur throttle grip forwards and it engages it..
For my 07 Heritage it comes on only when the motor get hot.... Its happened 3 times in 5yrs... Two times waiting for trains, and once in the garage when I didn't get the fans I usually use to keep her cool while idling while sitting, supprised me that it didn't take 4-5 mins before the rear cyl started cutting out.
