Hello,
I purchased my first Harley a week ago (07 RKC). The bike already had a stage 1 kit, but had stock exhaust. After some negotiations, the dealer agreed to put on screaming eagle pipes for me.
I asked the salesman if the tech remapped the fuel injection, since the bike now had a stage 1 and pipes. He said that they have found that remapping is not really needed with some pipes. He said that his own bike (08 RK) has a stage 1 with aftermarket pipes and he did not do the download. After reading here and talking with some different dealer service departments on the phone, I am getting two different opinions. My bike is running without any problems, not backfireing or popping. I just dont want it to run too hot and maybe damage it.
Is this remap from the dealer really needed, or will i be wasting my money?
Thanks for your help...
