V&H Fuel Pak VS. SERT
Looking for some advice for my 08 Ultra Classic. Not a whole lot of info out there yet.
I've added Hi-flow air kit and a set of V&H slip on's. I actually now have quite a bit of heat gain at stand still and loss of power in 4-6th gears. I know that the mixture is totally screwed up andEFI Mappingis the next step. V&H claims thattheirFuel Pak isbasically plug & play..self tuning. My local dealer is asking "how many zero's can you add on to that check?" As always, they want to sell me a lot stuff I don't need. I need real feed back from real people! Thanks in advance!

RE: V&H Fuel Pak VS. SERT
Well, with the intake and slip-ons you are definitely running lean and you don't want to do this for long! I have the FuelPak and am very pleased with it. With the V&H slip-ons you will find it to be quite satisfactory and will really help with the air/fuel balance and you'll gain a measurable performance increase. It is "plug and play" in that V&H provides a "map", that is settings, that you will program into the unit after installing it on your bike. It's about a 20 minute job from beginning to end, and quite easy; the instructions from V&H are easy to follow and thorough. V&H does not release the technical details of the FuelPak, so it is not customizable with a dyno tune as is the SERT, but it's a lot cheaper. V&H has already provided a wide variety of maps for various exhaust systems, but be aware that if you change to another exhaust down the road, you will need to be sure that they provide a map for that particular exhaust. V&H technical support has done a good job of working with me to fine-tune the FuelPak for my particular application.

Agreed with the ease of installation and the comment about it being all you *need* if you don't plan on doing more mods to the engine. The "programming" is nothing more than using 3 buttons to put in the settings they provide for your configuration...takes minutes.
The result is a strong, smooth running engine with good mileage.
On top of that, the V&H customer support is *unmatched*...I have worked with them and they have been professional, supportive and respectful, immediately returning phone calls and providing whatever is needed to ensure customer satisfaction.
I cannot say enough...and I am only a satisfied paying customer.
ps: To S and A...thank you again.

RE: V&H Fuel Pak VS. SERT
After holding my bike up since last week..my dealer finally came back and said that the SERT they have for the 07 is not he same . They spoke with HD and they are not available until late Sept. I guess V&H is the way to go. I don't want to take a chance of burning it up

Fuelpak is not yet available for the 08 models. I have heard everything from several months to they are not doing one at all. I can tell you now if they do it will be a little while for them at least to get a new mounting system designed and manufactured for the 08. The ECM is now under the seat instead of the side cover.

SERT - you marry it to the bike
V&H Fuel Pak - User Friendly - Easy Install & Works - But limites the up-grades it can handle outside a stage 1 \ stage 2 - & can be removed just as easy in case there is a warranty in question...
Been using one on my '07 since new... Works Great!!!
