As far as changing the AFR from 14.6 couldn't they bias the voltage in the CLB cruise areas?

They may have data logged with another SERT but for progamming the interface marries to one bike. The disc they shouldn't have needed it as the program only needs to be loaded to the computer once.

My wife has an 08 Fatboy with the "old SERT" and I have a 11 RKC with the "new SERT". The newer one has some newer features and requires upgraded software DVD. Both units take the same cables and the same training DVD. You can tune the older one with the new software. As Lonewolf stated; you can't swap SERT from bike to bike.

actually, the cables are different, I will post pic's of both boxes tomorrow.. the data cable from my new Lexmark printer I purchased last week is exactly the one needed with the new box... oh joy..

today's mission is to find the buzzing vibration source..

just got back.... bike runs good on the power, but a little lean at cruise and idle since the map is locked at 14.6 for an O2 reading under light load... I am told to correct that we need to drop the O2 function and lock in a 14.0-14.2 number on areas of the map... pulls real good other than that, better than ever actually... best stock block 96 i've ever ridden..

they did say this new HD tuner won't do speedo recal, so I seriously need to investigate that aspect now

all opinions welcome..


My Indy will tune my old SERT any day of the week and he don't need to "drop the 02 function".

You've been had.

in retrospect, I would rather have bought cams and pushrods from them, than a new tuner interface for the same money..

and I still don't have an accurate speedo..

and I still have the buzzing...

I appreciate the input, i'm NOT stupid, I was just acting on what I was told, like I said I like them, they stop and take time for me, but something didn't make sense, and some current medical issues keep me from crawling on the floor myself or I would have brought it home and went another route..

and I was a hair away from buying another new bike from them this week, and keeping this one as a one up toy..

edit > iClick, I read your input on another thread and found a key sentence you posted, there WILL be a call to them tomorrow.... thanx man

read it again, I never said I was going to, I said I was a hair away, and I was... the hair went to a log... this thread was started to gather facts, and I have read some good inputs so far..

thanx
