Nah, Hubbard, nothing like that. Been busier than all get-out, with trade and consumer shows, now preparing for Daytona. We'll be working out of a different vehicle (a tractor-trailer rig, with 3-4 other companies), so getting new displays together, new tool cart, etc. We'll be at both Daytonas, both Myrtle Beaches, Laughlin and Sturgis with the big rig. Other closer events we'll work from our usual trailer. I'll chime in if the facts get too skewed.....
Regarding the ThunderMax, there should be no effect on your security system, as it is controlled by the TSSM, which is a separate unit that has authority over the ECM. All factory gauges should also not be affected, but we have seen some issues with Harley's accessory speedo/tach unit. As far as heat control, yes there are safeguards built it in regards to timing and fuel vs. temperature, but as with the factory unit, these will only slow the heat building process some; the ThunderMax will signal the engine light when the cylinder head temperature reaches 325 degrees, the start of a real danger zone. At this point, you (the rider) should take action that will allow the engine to cool off, either by getting into some cool moving air or by simply shutting the engine off.
As far as on board diagnostics, it does not operate like the stock unit. It does have an engine monitors page that shows data from 44 different sensors/parameters that can be viewed on one screen, live. It does not support trouble codes. Thanks, JK
