My fuel mileage has suffered severely since doing this mod because I can't keep my right wrist in check.
Free horsepower (besides buying a PCV) and more usable torque make the C14 a totally different bike.
is there a cache file somewhere of a "how to" on this??So, I'll share.
one thing i meant to look up before the crash of 2011....
Lol...I noticed that I burned through a tank pretty quickly yesterday, but I was playing around a lot to get acclimated to the new power curve. I also noticed that my factory tires really are shot already. Rolling on the throttle half way thru the turns with the extra torque stressed the rear tire more than normal and showcased just how crappy it is.
Brad, make sure you do some research on pulling the flies and what it will affect since you have a 2011. The traction control is linked in and works with the ABS and uses the secondary flies to help. I can't find the info since the crash of 2011, but I am sure there is someone smarter than me that will chime in. I was able to do this free mod since I "only" have a 2008 that wasn't blessed with all the electronic gadgetry of the newer bikes.
i will thanks JD. i really like the fuel economy of this bike i might just leave it alone. it hauls ass as it is!

Good point. Didn't think about that, but now that I think about that...I do remember Fred stating something about the traction control using ignition timing in conjunction with the secondary flies? Probably a good idea to do some research first.
