Conc: Problems with calibration of performance, combined with exhaust 2-1 Rinehart.
I purchased a new Dyna Wide Glide – model 2006 in August last year.
After some month’s, I installed Rinehart 2-1 exhaust, combined with K&N High flow air filter.
Already here, we found some problems:
The original back plate for the Air filter, has a sensor that regulates a flap, which are placed in the intake of the air filter.
The workshop decided then to keep the original back plate, not to make any interference in the software. THIS IS NOT A CORRECT SOLUTION!
After this, I asked the Harley dealer to calibrate the system, according to the newly mounted parts.
The Harley dealer then downloaded race 1 software, and installed it on my bike.
Then a new problem occured: The software they downloaded is designed for an American model with Oxygen Sensors, and not for mine which is an HDI model, and don’t have the Oxygen sensors.
So now they delivered back my bike to me, with the engine lamp always on, because the software requires Oxygen sensors. They are not available, so the engine lamp will always be on.
Now the rear cylinder gets very hot. Even the cover plate for the exhaust starts to be yellow colour.
The end part of my Rinehart exhaust, which has the Rinehart racing symbol written on it, is normally black. This part is now purple colour on mine because of the intense heat.
Hope that anybody can help me to solve this problem, so that I can ride my bike without problems.
