    Don't need no screwdriver
    My bike runs pretty dang good. Turn the switch on and hit the button, INstant start. Throttle response , real good.

    Come on up and we can go for a ride. I'll show you.

    Just think I can do everything with a computer. Don't need a screwdriver, wait. I need it to take the screw holding the seat on..


    If I can git away with it I run faster.
    It takes Gas to run that fast. So I git less fuel milage.
    Will I give up twistin the throttle for better fuel milage.

    Not NO , but Heck no !

    Willl I continue to try to git better fuel milage, always.


    I didn't buy my bike for fuel milage. I bought it to enjoy it.

    Like learning as much as I can about it. I can't leave it alone.
    If I tear it up I will go and git another one.
    Jackin with my bike is what I do.
    It keeps me out of the house.

    Zippers CS was in the crapper, they had some smart-a's that talked
    down to end users, the problem guy is gone, they knew it and new
    people are there.

    I'd make sure you have the latest version of the software and talk
    with them. AFR shouldn't be 13 everywhere when you go to final AFR
    settings, haven't played with Tmax but it basically does what the others
    do with laptop connected (TTS SERT ETC) and you can see and make the
    changes, look at the data runs, ve runs etc and set spark.

    You should be able to set things in the TMax as you need for
    cruising RPM and better mileage, you don't want 13 afr when you are
    at 5% or 10% throttle at 70 MPH in 6th (low KPA load) it should be closer to
    14.5 for better fuel mileage so there is a zone where you need it to be set
    to get improved gas burn.

    I got my HD stage two download on my 103 with 255 cams and she is running pretty good. No complaints at least not sense I over rode that lousy tune I got with the Race Tuner.

    The bike runs good, I just want to tune it for a little better fuel milage if I can figure out how to do it.

    Might have to git help

    Normally when you find a tuner, they are trained to a certain program. They usually don't work with all tuner programs for fine tunin

    And with a screwdriver what can you tune ?
    Fuel and Air.


    With a computer you can control Fuel, air, timing and everything.
    You can even git more Hp with a computer.
    Can you do that with a screwdriver ?

    hes just talking about the above 75 percent throttle setting in the overide page , you can how ever overide the whole map to 13.0 but thats for racing applications . I dont think he is riding around at 13.0 all over town . If he is thats why the gas millage is in the ****ter. Hell you can set the low throtlle map section ver lean down to stoch if you want . They just run a little hot down there high compression i dont advice that at all. Big heavy bike dont think its a good idea either.
