Default Will a power commander help?

I have a 09 EG Ultra Classic, it has slip on Rinhearts and stock breather. Would a K&N air filter and a power commander help with the heat I'm getting on the left side?

Opening the bike to breath with a complete stage 1 and a tuner (properly tuned) will certainly help. Aftermarket or HD heat shields (if you don't already have them) will assist also.

Absoluetly! I noticed more power and less heat with my PCV. Call Jamie at Fuel Moto. They are a sponser here and great guys to work with. Good pricing too.

Most definitely will help w/your heat issue. Adding air & some fuel will correct your lean condition & give the bike some added power to boot.
