Played with it for a while today but couldn't load your app. Am I wasting my time or will it work? Was hoping for it to load then carrying it on long trips. Thanks .....Ol' Man......
I'm not familiar with Kindle, but it seems like it should work.

Do you have access to the Android Market? My app is not in the Amazon Market. Pm me with an email address, and we'll see if we can sort it out.

Just got my wife the Kindle Fire. I'll see if she'll let me try to download the app. If I can, I'll let you know if it is possible and if there are any special steps.

Okay, I've got 2007 Touring Model Owner's Manual in front of me.

Capacities -- the only change is Fuel Tank (total) 5.0 Gal 18.9 liters.

Shock loads are very different:

FLHR/C, FLHT/C/U, and FLTR

Solo Rider up to 150 lbs (68 KG) 0 PSI (0 kPA)
Solo Rider 150-200 lbs (68-91 KG) 0-10 PSI (0-69 kPA)
Solo Rider 200-250 lbs (91-113 KG) 5-15 PSI (35-103 kPA)
Rider with passenger weight of up to 150 (0-68 KG) 10-15 PSI (69-103 kPA)
Rider with passenger weight of up to 200 (0-91 KG) 20-25 PSI (138-172 kPA)
Maximum GVWR 20-35 PSI (138-241 kPA)

FLHRS and FLHX

Solo Rider up to 160 lbs (73 KG) 0-5 PSI (0-35 kPA)
Solo Rider 160-200 lbs (73-91 KG) 0-10 PSI (0-69 kPA)
Solo Rider over 200 lbs (91 KG) 5-10 PSI (35-69 kPA)
Rider with passenger weight of up to 150 (0-68 KG) 20-30 PSI (138-207 kPA)
Rider with passenger weight of over 150 lbs (68 KG) 25-25 PSI (172-241 kPA)
Maximum GVWR 40-50 PSI (276-345 kPA)

On the 2007 models, the EITMS is not rider controllable. It can be turned on/off by the dealer in the ECM.

Anything else, just ask.

That would be great, thanks Adrian. I can always email it if Kindle will allow you to install from "unknown sources".

I would join the Amazon Marketplace and post it, but Amazon requires a $99 fee annually. Thats too much to post a free app.

As of right now, I haven't found a way to install on the Kindle from the Android Market. On the plus side, I did install it on the wife's Droid 3 so if I somehow lose my phone while she is with me...

Will Kindle let you install apk's that are emailed to you? Probably not, but maybe you can check.

I checked Amazon's market again this afternoon, and found out that they are waiving the $99 developer's fee for one year. I created an account and uploaded the app, but Amazon has to test it first, and approve before they will publish it in their marketplace. They are not quite as liberal as Google.

I'll make a post here when / if it becomes available from Amazon.

This is good Dennis. I hope to have a 2007 version available soon.

Wasn't the PIN override slightly different too?

Threeten, Thank You for searching this out for the Kindle Fire. I do believe it will be benificial to me as well as some other "Oldtimers" that are still out on the open road. I would have PM'd you but couldn't find where to access private messaging. Seems like forums are different in many ways. Thanks Again............Ol' Man..

The 2007 PIN override doesn't use the 12th step that is currently listed. BUT, if you use the procedure exactly as it appears in the app, it works on the 2007, it just turns on the right turn signal after the override. So it is not imperative that you put out a 2007 specific override procedure.

Pretty sure you meant 25 - 35 PSI here; is that right?
