I installed mine and run 200 miles so far, no tune or reflash. I get better mileage , around 25 miles more per a tank. Engine works super smooth, no backfire, no choking. You can do tune, but on my experience it's not necessary.
I always liked that sound open air cleaners make, even on a car/truck. Haven't jumped on doing that yet on my Scout 60 yet. Maybe when filter change time comes.
Have a 19 Chief DH. Running Freedom True Duals w/4.5” cannons and stock air filter. Threw on the same air filter and bike has started to overheat. I didn’t get my tuner from Fuel Moto and they don’t offer tunes w/o buying one from there. But I am wondering how running lean could cause the overheat? Running hotter I suppose but it’s getting hot enough that I won’t ride it like this. Going to reach out to Dyno and ask for help but may have to switch back to stock or buy a new Dynojet PCV from Fuel Motto to get the tune 🤦 Thanks for the video..was great to have the confirmation on how to install as instructions were pretty crappy.
If your Indian is already a Stage 2, or 3 then you shouldn't need a tuner. Stage 2, and 3 actually requires a high-performance low restriction air-cleaner.
I bought it used with Stage 1 exhaust and it probably just had a Stage 1 flash. I have more upgrades planned so I wanted the tuner anyways. Thanks for the helpfull input and watching!
Any intake that can't handle a heavy rain is not worth buying for me. I commute, so anything I can't ride in the rain is a no go. Surprised by everyone who doesn't ever ride in rain, what's the point?
Yes, if you commute like they do in Singapore you have to ride in the rain. I have a Jeep as an option but sometimes I just want to ride so the bike get a rolling wash.
@@MeatballRebel I'm now have Indian number three. My dealership has done stuff to my bikes that wouldn't get done at other dealers. Including installation of aftermarket performance stuff and head pipes w/o a cat converter. I'll talk to them and see. If not I'll put my new in box Ness sucker on eBay and have them put on a stage 1 air cleaner. I do love the looks of the Ness unit. I can't see buying a $400 air cleaner then having to put another $400 out for a tuner.
If you do a high flow air cleaner and decat or full exhaust, you need to re-tune otherwise you may run too lean. Talk to your dealer, sounds like they will get you setup right.
@@MeatballRebel They usually do. I've had them do the stuff before. That's why I'm still riding Indians, as they have been great to work with. Right now I have Cobra pipes, so I won't need to change the pipes.
