  • My 2021 Harley-Davidson defeated me once again. I finally get the elusive cable for the Screaming Eagle Tuner, download the software, but am still unable to tune my brand new Harley Ultra Limited.

    I only use the vision tuner on my fuel injection bikes , if you have Harley install the vision tuner they have to do it according to OEM , I don’t ever buy my stuff from Harley , and those people that don’t think you have to tune a carburetor but I have lost their marbles, I had a 76 shovel head that was not stocked by any way shape or form had it for 21 years never lost a race not even against crotch rockets

    I don’t like the the fact that you have to lock in a tuner to stay compliant either. But when I bought the 2021 road glide limited and had Harley do the 131 kit they warranted all the work and parts. I’m thinking that after the warranty runs out I can get like a TTS and get some of the heat out of the motor. I had to wrap the pipes, Which did take about 50% of the heat out and then the Hi Airflow fan to keep it bearable in stop and go things like at rallies.

    Just a side note: ECM stands for Engine Control Module, not Electronic. This is to differentiate it from the TCM, or Tranny Control Module, which is required out in California where some of the athletes from last century have transitioned ... and have the typical tranny problems, which you want to Control. Thus, the TCM was invented by a lame Danish man during a break from luge racing practice.

    • @ProfessionalMonkey
      @ProfessionalMonkey  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Good question. I love them both. They really are different from one another, and they both have weaknesses. The batwing fairing add a lot of weight to the forks, but I think it looks better, the dash is nicer to look at and I think it gives you better weather protection. Road Glide handles better at low speed. I got a batwing this time just because I already had a road glide and I didn't want two of them basically.

Motor running hotter as weather warmed up. Engine would cough and completely die leaving stop sign, lights yada yada. Found Nightrider website. For $100 plugged in their XIED connectors between O2 sensors you have two one for each cylinder. Tricks the ECM thinking I need to add more fuel. No reprograming to ECM. Its reading sensor voltage. Mixture is close to 13.5-13.7. Oil temp dropped 20 F, never spits and sputters. We ride two up on Vegas strip 90+ degrees no issues, mpg 45+ solo. Best $100 ever spent on Mistress III Check them out.

    There is a Magnuson law that says they can't void a warranty for after market parts without proving the part caused the malfunction or damage.

    • @ProfessionalMonkey
      @ProfessionalMonkey  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not entirely true. If you’re a lawyer I’m interested, but the reality is a limited warranty has limits, and one of these is that a modified drivetrain doesn’t have to be warranted by the manufacturer. The cost of proving them wrong is greater than the potential benefit.

    • @marcleclaire1838
      @marcleclaire1838 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not a lawyer.
      What is the Act?
      The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, passed by Congress in 1975, governs the warranties on consumer products. It was designed to help consumers understand, compare, and enforce the warranties on their products. This federal statute protects consumer rights by compelling warrantors to use clear language and complete information in their warranties and to avoid deceptive practices. Any consumer product that comes with a warranty-including car parts and accessories-must comply with the Act. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has since been reminding consumers of their rights to install aftermarket parts without fear of having their warranties voided.

After a bit more research and several phone calls found out that even the dealers will not have new maps and tables until late March. Vin numbers are also screwed up in HD database. IE: The vin for my 2021 CVO RoadGlide in Sunset Orange and Sunset Black fade is registered with HD as a CVO limited in purple and black. Mind boggling, that with nearly 9 extra months for this MY's rollout, they still couldn't get their shit together.

    I recently subscribed to your channel. Enjoy watching. I have a 2018 H-D Street Glide Special that I accessorized to basically like a limited. (I know, I should have just bought a Limited, but I just liked the SGS so much.) Anyway, the one accessory that has worked well for me and Especially my wife as passenger living here in Central Fl. In the summer, is the H-D,” Cool fan”. It deflects the engine heat in slow traffic pretty well especially for the passenger. That and putting on passenger floor boards really helped. The cool fan is $300.00. H-D to install is extra. The auto mode works best. The cool fan is not an engine cooler. It just draws away heat from you and your passenger in slow traffic. I like it out of all the accessories I slapped on my SGS. Just wanted to share. Keep up the videos. They’re great!

    That guy that commented is just an old fart like me. Years ago if you added pipes most of the time they came with instructions and new carb jets. That was it. I like it better now my FP3 tuned my bike and now it's my tachometer on my I phone. I love Tech. I live in mountains darn computer even adjusts for altitude. We used to do that manually also. Ain't life grand??

    Me and my son flashed my HD with stage 1 tune. After running a few "street tunes" or auto tunes the bike ran pretty well. Went to full exhaust wideband HD auto tune module. At stage 2 torque cam now, it was an easy flash. After that the tuner took over. Bike runs pretty well I must say. Much better than stock, especially at higher speeds.yes the new ECM thing sucks no tune yet lol

      One other possibility is that from a corporate standpoint they may have gone to a lean production method. I’ve heard Indian does this and that’s why it takes so fricken long to get accessories when new bikes come out. They only make minimal amounts to cut back on over stock. Smart way to run a business on the money side, not so good for customers who are waiting for their shit.

      Yup. The Challenger is cool but too many people are reading crank power and thinking that's wheel power and comparing the two. My CVO with a cam and a tune is about 120 hp and 130 lbs of torque on a dyno at the wheel. Yes, it's a ton of money, but those numbers would be similar on a 114 with the same cam and tune.
