THE "SOUND OF HISTORY"
MANUAL IDLE ADJUSTMENT FOR HARLEY DAVIDSON FUEL-INJECTION (1995-2021/2023)
TANK TUNING TIPS (Dyna, Softail, Touring)

Before starting, position yourself facing your motorcycle, on the air filter side, and slightly open the knob to facilitate cold starting.

  1. Get on the bike, keeping it perfectly upright, then start the engine, aiming for around 1100 rpm.
    With practice, you will naturally adjust the number of notches needed.
  2. Allow the engine to warm up for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  3. Reach under the tank and gradually reduce the idle speed, notch by notch, by turning the dial with your fingertips.
    (The Maltese cross version offers an even more precise and intuitive grip.)
  4. Don't look for the minimum idle speed immediately.
  5. Go for a short ride (3 to 4 min) to complete the temperature rise.
  6. When stopped (stop sign, traffic light), adjust if necessary.

    With the engine warm, no further adjustments are required.
    A simple blip of the throttle is enough to stabilize the start.
    ________________________________________
    BE PATIENT.
    Take the time to get used to this setting.
    Your machine will adapt to your hand.
    Very soon, you won't want to go back.
