By Mark DiPietro

Question for Fix My Hog

I have a 2015 Street Bob with 96ci. I bought an Arlen Ness Stage 1 Big Sucker.
Can I use it on my Harley without changing the exhaust?
Do I need to do remap?

Although it is more beneficial to add a less restrictive exhaust, you can run a high-flow air cleaner assembly without changing your exhaust or mufflers. You will need to add and program a tuner. The bike is already lean from the factory. Adding a high-flow air cleaner assembly will make it even more lean.

    I have a 2013 Dyna Wide Glide with an Arlen Ness Monster Sucker, Vance & Hines Short Shots, and a FP3 fuel pak to tune it up and the bike runs great with no issues.

    I bought a 2007 Roads King FLHR. It already had Vance and Hines TWIN SLASH ROUND SLIP-ONS. I installed a Kuryakyn Mach 2 Air Cleaner. It starts up fine, but when I open the throttle, it stalls out.

    I bought a 2018 XL HD Sporster1200 iron NS Brand New. Don't know what I was thinking when I bought it except, I'm 60 Female and I wanted a new one. Problem is I hate the blue and white stripes on the tank!!!! Don't even like the color blue. Can't afford to have the tank painted. Is there anything I can do to fix this? I bought all the accessories for it in the last 3 yrs. Arlen Ness breather kit, pipes, all the medallions LIVE TO RIDE, seat high sissy bar only that one problem is keeping me from liking my bike the way I should. Appreciate any ideas. Thanks
