[2010 FLHX]

Yeah, and once upon a time I had a high-maintenance girlfriend too. There's much to be said for not being high-strung and high-maintenance.

2010 FLHX (Surprise!) -- 96 in. engine, SE Stage I intake, K&N (like blowing your nose!), and 2 into 1 Nightstick exhaust. I added a digital temp/oil level dipstick, just because it seemed like a good idea. Then engine, even in streakin' hot weather, runs about 240F at the high end. Plenty of power, ample torque, good acceleration. I get a nice smooth power band from about 3K up to whatever (where I never go). Decent mileage, idles smoothly.

I tour on this bike. Rarely do I run less than 100 miles on any ride. Much of the time we're topping 500 miles, 700 miles in a day. One up, w/ luggage for camping on the road. I'm "haulin' freight" -- not racing or squirrlin' . . .

The 96 in. engine runs no cats -- that helps keep it cool. It's reliable as hell, and not going to burn out early because it's over-bored, over compressed, running lean fuel.

Like comfortable old shoes, a nice ride that I don't need to fuss over.

With a 2 into 1 replacement exhaust system, no, you don't have a Cat.

But, you don't mention whether the bike has been tuned or had something done to richen the A/F mixture up a bit since the exhaust and A/C were installed.  If nothing has been done, you're running lean....VERY lean.  From previous posts, I assume you did not buy the bike new.  Do you have any idea if the bike has been tuned?

TC, you're making the assumption he really has a bike.

Are you really an asshole or do you just play one online?

Maybe you should spend some time on the site before you post anything that comes to mind.  It's like going to a pub in Scotland thinking you like to drink beer.  A lot of bright minds with some sarcastic humor that makes for easy prey !:nixweiss:

Yes, I really am an asshole.  I'm just not a stupid sophomoric annoying asshole without the skills to pull it off  .

Hope not Scott   He's the closest thing we've had to MFG in a long time.   We need a medicine ball to bang around occasionally.   So hopefully he won't get booted or bail that soon.

Lot of "A's" there Donny boy.

MFG - was that the Kentucky dude?

That's about the sternest I've seen Obi Wan - and I'm sure that's not grammatically correct, but who else cares?
