I need advice?
I just bought a new pair of vance and hines slipon, can I put them on without doing anything else to my bike? They are going on a 08 1200L, I have heard that I needed a fuel-pack, then someone told me that I didn't, if I do are they hard to put on. Any feed back would be great.Thanks

RE: I need advice?
Technically if you put on Screamin' Eagle mufflers by themselves you don't have to do anything else to your bike. Vance & Hines may be the same way, I don't know. What I do know is that if you put the pipes onand a high-flow air cleaner you do need to get the Fuelpak.
Quite honestly, I think as long as you don't change the amount of air entering the engine you don't need a Fuelpak. Just because the air can exit better doesn't mean the engine needs a Fuelpak, but it may change the back pressure, which in turn can change performance.
Bottom line, I guess I personally would not install them without a Fuelpak, BUT Fuelpak only has programs for bikes with high-flow air cleaners. So if you don't get the air cleaner, too, don't bother with the Fuelpak I guess.
