I am a new member and would like to introduce myself. My name is John McIntosh and I currently live in DeBary, FL and I ride a 2005 Ultra Classic. I have upgraded to a Screamin Eagle 103 Stage 1 and a Screamin Eagle 6 speed. That with the Vance and Hinse true duals adnoval slash cuts make a lot of heat and horsepower. That leads me to a problem.

I had my bike dyno tuned with an SE Rave Tuner and now I have terrible gas mileage, 26-28 mpg, since it was done. It dropped by 10mpg. Does anyone have any sugeestions on how to get the mpg back without loosing all of the power gain? Or am I dreaming of something that I'll have to live without, MPG.

Welcome from Northern Virginia!

Don't know much about tuning cycles; but, if your problem sounds like the issues you'd have with a car if you had the fuel too rich. I'd suggest finding another tuner and have the fuel maps adjusted.

Good luck!
