Default Fuelmoto Power Package Redone

Waited 51,000 miles before I purchased the Fuelmoto Power Package for my 09 Road King, not this time. The 103ci motor in the Electra Glide pulls strong but also pings at times, my goal was to eliminate that. The other added benefit that I’m hoping to gain is added power, cooler running motor, better sound and maybe better gas mileage.

I called the folks at Fuelmoto who answered all of my questions and this time I went with the Dynojet Power Vision unit, I had used the Power Commander 5 before. The Power Vision unit looks like a small GPS, when attached you can view many functions and make some adjustments but the real power is using the WinPV Software; it comes preloaded with the correct map from Fuelmoto. When the unit is removed there are no visible add-ons to the bike, once less connection. Like my last bike I went with Fuelmoto’s Stage One Air Filter and their 4” Slash Up Jackpot Mufflers.

The install was easy, slip on new mufflers, replace air filter/backing and the easiest part was flashing the ECM and loading the Fuelmoto map. The bike sounds great, not too loud but loud enough to appreciate it, started easy and pulls stronger.

After putting 1500 miles with the Fuelmoto kit I’m happy to report that the bike runs really good. The bike ran well before but the kit as given the bike more umph at highway speed and I’m down shifting less, most of the pinging is gone and I think the bikes starts easier. Gas mileage so far as not really changed that much one way or the other.

Thanks for you post!
I will be doing the same package to my 13 road glide with the exception that I went with the PCV.
I also feel that I want to keep the football!

I kept the football on mine as well. I like the look of the wire baskets, but legs are so darn long that my knee rests on it, and let me tell you those things will beat the crap out of a knee!
I rarely touch the football, but when I do its not going to leave bruises.

Nice upgrade, and thanks for the pics!

My wife, children, boss and co-workers frequently remind me of what an idiot I am, so maybe its not surprising that I do not understand this post.

Good job!!
Happy Tweekin'!

Was your bike a 103 from the "git-go"?
What were you getting for MPG?

I never did care for the football.
It is big and cumbersome, and takes up a lotta space.

Maybe at least way though, it might have a better chance of staying straight rather than ****-eyed. lolol.

You've got those too, eh?

I call this style of "performance" air cleaner covers wire baskets. Imagine bouncing down the road with your knee resting against that and you see what I mean. They seem to stick out a little further than the factory football as well, so trying to keep my knee off of them leaves me feeling like I'm getting into position to give birth. LOL

I like the football myself...............

In fact, I not only kept the football on my '12 limited, I added a football to my '03 Heritage....

To each their own......
