09 Ultra EITMS (enable/disable)
I had new bars put on my 09 Ultra and think during the process the EITMS was enabled. I ran it for two days like that. Should I be concerned? Thanks

No concern, because if you read below you will see that it will turn itself on and off based on the conditions.
When engine temperature reaches a pre-determined point,
the EITMS will turn off the rear cylinder fuel injector. Idle
speed will be maintained, however the rear cylinder will
become an “air pump” which will work to cool the engine.
EITMS will activate (rear cylinder will turn off) when all of the
following conditions are met for approximately 6 seconds.
• Engine temperature is greater than 287° F domestic
(165° C international)
• Throttle position less than 0.9%
• Vehicle speed under 1 MPH (2 KPH)
• Engine speed under 1200 RPM
EITMS will disable (rear cylinder will again fire) if any one of
the following occurs:
• Engine temperature falls below 275° F domestic (135° C
international)
• Throttle position greater than 1.4%
• Vehicle speed exceeds 2 MPH (3 KPH)
• Engine speed exceeds 1350 RPM
• Clutch is released with vehicle in gear
When the engine is in EITMS mode you may notice a difference
in idle cadence. Additionally there may be a unique
exhaust odor. These are both considered to be normal conditions

I thought I had had this sorted out during the summer, but was never sure, I did some checking
again this am, found your post, and also this 'how to EITMS' which I believe is also excellent.;

Vehicles are delivered from the factory with EITMS disabled. EITMS can be enabled or disabled by the rider by performing the following procedure.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and push the engine OFF/RUN switch on the right handlebar to the RUN position (do not start the motorcycle).
Push the throttle to roll*off position and hold.
See Instrument Lamps. After approximately 3 seconds, the cruise indicator lamp will either flash green (EITMS enabled) or red (EITMS disabled).
NOTE: A flashing lamp indicates the EITMS setting. A solid (non*flashing) lamp indicates the cruise control setting.
Repeat the procedure as needed to enable or disable EITMS.

First, this thread is almost 12 years old. Second, Dawg should have at least given credit where credit is due. Just sayin'...
