Hey all, first post. Long time lurker. I have a 2019 iron 883, stage one. This in regards to pressure above sea level. I am about 3000 ft above. I am in Alberta Canada. I have read that it is recommended to set it at 30 kpa in the settings. Should I be setting it to the average kpa for my area to get the most out of my tune when using the autotune feature. Thanks
Make sure your temperature settings are correct for a Sportster. The PV defaults are set for a Big Twin motor.
Min 280F Max 410F (Harley recommends 320 F min for the Super Tuner)
The Min and Max rpms should be 1000 and 7000.
I wouldn't use the average kpa for your location. I use 20kpa.
The suggestion to increase it helps to prevent decreasing the VE values when decelerating (especially if you snap the throttle shut)
Thanks for replying. I have set the temps and rpms for a sportster. I was curious about the whole kpa thing so would I be better off leaving the min setting at 20 kpa if the bike isn't having a problem with decel.
