Default Thundermax help!
I own a 2011 road glide custom with the 103 power pack. I have the roland sands turbine intake, 103 motor, rinehart xtreme duals, ngk iridium spark plugs and thundermax autotune with wide band o2 sensors. Trying to figure out which map is right for me and if I should change any settings. The bike ran fine and after 100 miles at low speed around 2000rpm at steady idle the bike starts to hesitate as if it were carb? also the other day I started it up, rolled a few feet and reved the engine. when i did this the check engine light came on and couldnt accelerate past 4000 rpm. once i shut it down and restarted it, it went back to normal but with the slight choke/hesitation. what do i do??

Make sure you have the latest download. I know you have a new bike but the thunder max could have not gotten the latest software update

Your build is pretty extreme, I think I'd ask the pro's at Zippers.

Update firmware for sure. I am on my phone so I assume its a stock 103???? If so I am running map 54 with catless headpipe thundercone slip ons and hi-flow air cleaner. Mine runs excellent.

from my experiance with the tmax like stated above make sure u have the right map once youve found that u need to put some miles on it so it can learn your riding style or what ever u call it. u have to at least put a couple hundred miles on then auto map it. thats what i did and it worked for me until it learns it bucks farts and sometimes stalls. just my 2 cents

To each there own on tuners. I had a tmax for 3 years on my 2007 flstf. It really needed a tuner to dial it in after my 103 build, and no one in my area could do the required tune.
So- i stayed with the HD super tuner pro on my 2011 RKC.
