Screamin' Eagle have released a base calibration for the new 121ci VVT Powered CVO Models on the Street Tuner Platform. While no adjustment at all is available yet there are still some great gains to be had.
All dyno runs were carried out in 6th gear, with Sport Mode selected & the speed sensor disconnected to allow for a full RPM sweep.
Before the Khrome Werks full system was fitted I managed to carry out some base runs in 100% STOCK form. Check that out that quick video here: • 121ci VVT CVO on the DYNO
The owner is very much OK with everything in the video & I had full permission for everything you see.
When Screamin' Eagle do have adjustment for the Street Tuner Pro it will still be limited in the adjustment range so while more power will be unlocked there will still be a LOT more left on the table for the aftermarket (when tuning capabilities are unlocked).
This new M8 platform is proving to be a great step forward for Harley-Davidson & i am very much looking forward to sinking my teeth into all the tuning & modifications that come about in time.
Thanks for watching folks.

I’m glad you showed how restrictive those “high flow air filters” are.

Your leading the pack on these new bikes. Far out of my price range but very interesting to watch.

Great video. I ordered my pipes at Frasers and I saw them yesterday and they are gloss black. I said to them they are not black chrome (similar to the ones that come with the bike). They are in fact gloss black and they definitely look nothing like yours. I would not mind if you can send me a good pic so I can show it to the dealers please. After seeing yours, I definitely do not want the ones they've pick up for me. I am happy to hear the wedge air filter does a great job. Also, 162? WTF.

I love what you've done with the videos you produce. Well done!! A little off topic here, the M8 117 upgrade to 131 ci does the have a thinner wall in the cylinder lining?

@MasterTechMiller 8 месяцев назад

The cylinder liner naturally has to be thinner to accommodate the 4.310 bore of the 131ci pistons with the 4.500 stroke of the 114ci & 117ci bikes. There is nothing wrong with the Screamin' Eagle cylinders. They are plenty strong enough.

General tuning question: Is the overall performance better if: a) tune it and remove the O2 Sensors or 2) Tune it and leave the O2 Sensors in?

@JackPanitch-hy1ws 3 месяца назад

Looking for some advice: I had a 2023.5 CVO Road Glide in dark platinum and added the same Khromewerks exhaust with SE tuner and SE forward-facing air breather. The performance gain was phenomenal. But the bike was too loud to keep at home. I had to store it elsewhere to keep the peace in the family and the neighborhood. I just traded it in on a 2024 CVO Road Glide in legendary orange. Nutjob, I know, but it will be the last bike I own (alongside my BMW M1000R). This time around, I will be purchasing a Jekyll and Hyde exhaust so that I can store the bike at home and come and go quietly. Having made that choice, I don't think there's much I can do to increase the machine’s performance and preserve the factory warranty. But before giving up entirely, I wanted to check with you for any recommendations you might have. For example, is there a cam I can swap in without endangering the warranty? Is an SE tuner a waste? Do I need to simply wait for the warranty to expire before making any mods? Sorry for the ignorance of any of these questions, and thank you for your consideration!

@MasterTechMiller 3 месяца назад

There are no cams available for the VVT M8 engine as yet. You can either use the Screamin Eagle Wedge air filter or the Heavy Breather Extreme. Those will provide great improvements. Using the SE Pro Street Tuner to make the tuning adjustments, you'll keep your factory warranty & have some performance gains.

@phillipsaunders2077 3 месяца назад

What was the RWHP from the factory? And would the KW baffles help make more power? I just did this exact setup on my 2023.5 CVO Roadglide because of your videos. I have the baffles but don’t like the sound.

@GMAN0444 5 месяцев назад

Awesome video, thanks for all the great info. Could you change the air cleaner and leave the stock pipes What would the dyno numbers be. Do you require the SE flash or not if you run that configuration

@MasterTechMiller 5 месяцев назад

Just adding the air filter would definitely help to give an increase in HP but the exhaust system is very restricted too as there are 3 catalytic convertors in it. It's hard to say just how much the air filter alone would be of benefit. The flash tune is definitely recommended when doing both the exhaust & Air filter.

@JackPanitch-hy1ws 5 месяцев назад

I added a SE tuner, SE heavy breather and full Khromewerks exhaust with baffle inserts to my never-ridden brand new 2023 CVO Road Glide and picked up a ton of both horsepower and torque. Then I posted my dyno sheet to a Facebook group of 2023 CVO owners as what I thought was a public service, and the comments and questions started coming in. One commenter told me in not so many words that I had wasted my money on the air filter and exhaust and that the performance gains were all due to the tuner. I got started down this road after watching you change out the stock air filter for a SE wedge filter. I love the look and sound of the new pipes, but my dealer knew that my only goal was increased performance. What are your thoughts on the commenter’s view that I wasted my money on everything but the tuner if the looks and sound did not matter so much to me?

@MasterTechMiller 5 месяцев назад

The commenter clearly doesn't know what they are talking about. The SE Tuner is a mear 'flash tune' & provides a slight amount of additional fuel. The biggest restrictions by far are the air filter & exhaust system. Once full tuning capabilities become available, these VVT bikes will make so much more power than you can imagine

Miller great video thanks. Wanted to ask your opinion. Just got a brand new 24 CVO Street Glide. Had dealer put on the Rhineheart 4.5 exhaust and the tuner as you did in your video. My question is can I add the SE Wedge Filter with the flash tune already done as you did on your video? Just want to make sure it doesn’t throw AF. Ratio off. Thanks

@MasterTechMiller 2 месяца назад

It'll be fine to install that filter with your current setup. The tune in the bike should be able to accommodate for the extra air flow. The closed loop section of the Tune in those CVO's is huge. It will be fine

I did not disconnect it. I welded in a receiver bung on the Khrome Werks crosser pipe so the OEM installed 3rd 02 sensor could be fitted. Other than that small modification the entire system is a direct fit.

It sounds different than a traditional Harley. What's different is that VVT what's making the engine sound like it's running so smooth? Because it's supposed to lope and chop. It just sounds like the motor is running a little too smooth to be a Harley. I don't like the sound of it.

@MasterTechMiller thanks for the reply miller, is this because you're using the stock ECM setup? If you had a dynovision with target tune then would you get away with just 2 sensors?

Yes. The factory ECM calibration is setup for 3 02 sensors. 2x pre cat & 1x post cat. It's the new Euro standard for motorcycles.

@MasterTechMiller 8 месяцев назад

When the calibration becomes fully adjustable & tunable there will be no concerns with having a 3rd 02 sensor. It will still be there on the bike but it won't effect tuning

@jeremyfowler218 8 месяцев назад

Taking the breather off is an old dyno trick. Not a real comparison. Test the wedge back to back. No way you are gaining 11hp by changing the air cleaner

@MasterTechMiller 8 месяцев назад

As soon as I get the air filter, I will let the customer know when he can come in & have it installed. I will then test it again back to back. No tricks here mate. That is just what it did.

@jeremyfowler218 8 месяцев назад

I guess I worded it wrong not saying you are trying to pull dyno tricks. Just saying any bike will make good gains by removing the the air cleaner. I would bet money there isn’t 11hp gain from the S/E wedge to stock. Probably be more like 2-4hp gain.

@MasterTechMiller 8 месяцев назад

@jeremyfowler218 I do not expect the new SE Wedge filter to perform as good as running no filter either. I'm sure there will still be some form of restriction. I would like to think there will be gains of around 5 to 8 hp over stock with the wedge filter. I never said running the Wedge filter would make gains of 11hp.
