Freewheeler Nightrider FL-Vied-10 Installed Today..

[screwball]

Cool!

Been traveling and have not been able to keep up with all the threads...I just read thru this one for the first time.

I know the XiED products work, been using them myself for years, and have helped thousands of Customers get rid of that low speed stutter/hesitation that the newer EFI bikes have...

.....BUT.... To get a ThumbUp from you, I'm almost speechless. Very cool!

Thank you!

Do you mind if we quote you on your experience at this LINK?

I may have to try this myself.
I had a pcv and used it on the free and dyno tuner. I was happy with the results but the mpg drop. Went from 37mpg to 27 mpg. The trike runs great and has impressive power increase with the pcv.
but the mpg drop is more than I can chew

Ya mpg are important.

I recently set my FL-Vied-10 units at the 75% set point from the 50% set point as stated in the above postings. This was done after adding my new stage 1 air cleaner to see how the Trike would perform. The problem is my milage dropped down to 27/28 mpg today on a 250 + mile ride. At the 75% set point the performance increases were so small that it did not justify the mpg losses for me.

So I decided at the 125 mile mark of my 250+ mile ride today when fueling up to set the FL-Vied-10 units back to the 50% set point.

The Trike still ran great and performed very well and my mpg came back up to around the 33/34 mpg range.

As stated before it is nice to be able to fine tune the FL-Vied-10 units on the fly. It took about 2 minutes in the gas station parking lot.

Ride Safe,
Bill G.

Add me to the list of believers. I'm impressed. 15 minutes to install. Can't get much simpler than that! Runs great!

UPDATE: After about 800 miles running the F's at factory setting, I adjusted them to max. Another 500 miles and I think I got it right. Max rich seems to do the trick. VERY happy!!

I know Im way late to the party. What I want to know is if you ever beat your neighbors corvette. Enjoy the desert. I am glad I live in MT. but come winter I really miss the desert. Girlfriends health won't allow me to move back or id be packing my bags.

Well, with the Megaphone exhaust I'm a whole lot louder than he is . Can't even come close to his Suzuki 600 cc either, but then Freewheelers are cruisers not racers.... I'm louder than that ricer too

Fl_vied_10

I found a new unused one on Ebay for $50 installed it the bike seems to come alive with pretty much the same set up as yours..Wants to do wheelies when you bang 2nd gear..LOL

 

[headheaded]

i run mine at 75% on my streetglide, but when installed on my tri- glide i was getting some popping in the exhaust so i turned them down to 25% and it went away. free flowing mufflers with no cat requires you to turn them downa bit because of reversion.

 

[headheaded]

i should add to above post i ran mine at 75,50 and now 25% and it runs good. 50% and i was getting some popping out of the pipes due to reversion. free flowing mufflers need to be lean out some.

 

[hotrodbob]

I went on a ride yesterday with the wife and I and got 32.5 For MPG with the FL's set at 50%. That works for me. Next is to change the header pipe out with one that I got with no cat in it.

 

[52edub]

I am a little confused on what do I use to point to the setting on my Vieds. I used the two little dots and had them pointed to what would be 50% in the diagram. Is that right?

Yes. Straight up is 50%. I run 62.5% with no cat, stock mufflers, stock air cleaner on my 2014.

Your bike is set up like mine. Just added the fuel moto header and leaving the stock mufflers and air cleaner. Thanks for the clarification.

(Update)

I took another long ride today with side cover off the Trike so I could have access to the FL-Vied-10 setting adjusters. I also took a small jewelers screwdriver to make adjustments as needed.

I tried both the 45% and the 50% settings and the 75% setting again. Hands down the 50% setting worked best for my set up giving better throttle responce and no decel popping. The 45% setting had weaker throttle responce and some decel popping. The 75% setting was like I said before a tad rich for my set up and did not provide as crisp of throttle response, more sluggish feeling.

50% is where I will keep the FL-Vied-10 units on my Freewheeler Trike. ThumbUp

Ride Safe All,
Bill G

43 is the best I ever got
The M8 is getting 55 on the nose with out any adds yet

 

[screwball]

As I said before, for the first 800 miles I had mine at 50%. Since I had new mufflers, I noticed that the ends were still shiny chrome. I upped them to 100% and they started to blacken a little. This is what I wanted, means the trike is running richer. Better richer than leaner. No hesitation, no popping runs great with over 20,000 miles. LOVE this scoot.

Oh, wife's '14 Tri-Glide is set the same way, same aftermarket mufflers, also runs great

 

[Jack Klarich]

I am not against them, The M8 does not need them, however it needs a good tuner like a TTS or Powervision

 

[Dante221]

Just curious...

Can using the FL VIED show up on a Milwaukee 8

computer scan , even it is removed before taking it to the

dealer for routine service or some other

problem?

I have an extended warranty and do NOT want to

void my warranty

Thanks in advance

Just take them off if you are worried. They don't leave an imprint on the ECU.
