Default M8 EPA Stage 1 Upgrade Done!

After reading the EPA lawsuit information and seeing how Harley has guidelines to follow on all 2017 and newer bikes as a result, I elected to play nicely.

I installed the SE High-flow air cleaner, SE Street Cannons and SE Street Tuner on my 2017 Tri Glide. I have to say, these are some really nice additions to the M8. The Street Cannons have a nice low rumble at idle and are not overly obnoxious at cruising speeds.

The SE High-flow air cleaner keeps the stock M8 appearance while allowing more air flow.

The SE Street Tuner is an easy to use tuner. Granted you can't make changes like you can with the PoweVision, but you can still tune the VE tables and a couple of other tables. To me that is fine, I really like the plug-n-play system Harley has put together.

I bought everything through Board Tracker HD online for just move $800. For the cost and results, I'm extremely happy and won't have to fear any dealership about warranty should I have an issue on the road.

The Q I have a quick question. Were you able to find a calibration for the SE tuner that applies to the 17 M8 TG? The reason I ask is because about a month and a half ago I was told that no maps were available yet for the 17 TGs. They were available for the other M8s but not for the 17 TGs. The dealer was not even sure why that was the case. I was thinking along the same lines as you in regards to the warranty, etc., and want to play it safe.

Yes, there is a calibration specific to the M8 Tri Glide. Oddly, there are only 2 calibrations available for the Trike. There is one for Stage 1 and one for the 114 upgrade.
