Screamin' Eagle 131 Fitment?

AR198 · May 27, 2021

What MPG are you getting with the larger kits?

Recently when twisting the throttle, my fuel seems to be going down too quick.

The bigger motor is more sensitive to driving style. It'll get decent mileage, but why???

My 131 Tri-Glide was built for my elevation, house is at 7,100ft. I usually get 34-36. Highest in 6K miles has been 41. I've also been able to get a tank down to 30mpg.... That was a FUN day.....

I know the MoCo says the new 131 won't fit the Trike models. I made the mistake of calling them and sitting on hold for 30 mins just to hear "this is an unsupported configuration" after they made me give them every last piece of personal info so they could mail me more stuff. Rookie mistake ..

Hoping someone on here has had experience with the new 131 and understands the actual fitment issues. Is it a "soft" issue like voiding the warranty or EPA stuff .. or is it a major issue like the motor mounts don't match up, or there are cooling issues, drive train integration issues, etc.

I guess the FLRT feels a lot like a regular Touring bike with a different back end to me. Hard to understand why the 131 wouldn't fit .. one dealer told me it was minor and they'd do it for me on the side .. another dealer said I should just apply the stage kits up to IV. I want the 131 if I can get it ..

Thank you in advance.

I purchased the 131 for my 21 Tri Glide with V&H X-Pipe and Tab exhaust. Dillon Brothers in Omaha told me I would have to use Power Vision tuner that would void warranty but they would back it. All my accessories came in, dropped bike off only to get a call stating they can't install the 131 or the exhaust since they can't tune it. They said my parts are on a shelf waiting on someone to hack AC Delco ECM. I have ask a lot of people but only received opinions not answers.

Check with

They used 131 H-D parts, not the kit.

The cam choice and use of stock throttle body with stage IV heads was based the way I ride and the elevation I ride at. Going for torque and throttle response, not peak HP. I am VERY happy w my Dealer and the build. It was loaded w a tune from the same build on a bike they did previously as they don’t have a Trike dyno. I have almost 7k on the build done Jan 2021.

As of a week or so ago, when I spoke with Dynojet, they have broken into the 2021 ECM and are now working on the interface.

It won't be long before (June or July is what I was told) the Power Vision is working with the 2021 models. As far as I know right now there are no flash tuners that are working with the 2021 M8's, stock or built.

As far as the 131 in the Tri Glide...it is a monster! Rode for a few days with Highaltidude out in Texas, that TG Moves Out!

He was getting real close to the same MPG that I was getting on my '19 that has the 114 with only a Stage I.

I will echo what Kevin said. I also rode with Kevin and Highaltidude in Texas for a few days. Most of the time he was 2 bikes in front of me and I could see him really moving out when he wanted. And, the sound of his bike is SWEET! Even an old GW rider like me really liked it..... Jim
