T-Max ECM with Auto-Tune Closed Loop System for M-8 Softails Whitehouse, Tennessee based ThunderMax has been quick off the mark with this latest version of the T-Max - an ECM with auto-tune closed loop system for new 2018 M-8 Softails that mounts conveniently in place of the factory ECM and plugs into the existing harness. Utilizing wide-band O2 sensors it works as a closed-loop control system to continuously self-adjust and properly tune the motorcycle's air/fuel ratio for all riding conditions and is said to be an easy install - “just replace the factory ECM, install the new O2 sensors and harness, load the correct map and ride.” It includes ThunderMax ECM with auto-tune module, plug-in harness and two wide-band sensors, TMax software and communication USB cable, quick-start easy install and comprehensive user manuals, technical support and free software and updates. Hundreds of maps are available to download (based on model, engine size, exhaust system air cleaner, pistons, cams, etc.) - load the map of your choice and the integral auto-tune will do the rest. It improves throttle response, exhaust sound and driveability and does not require dyno tuning - the rider can adjust idle speed, rev limit and speedometer calibration. It has adjustable front and rear cylinder AFR maps, ignition timing (spark) maps, and start up maps. It works with all popular exhaust systems, is PARTS AND ACCESSORIES compatible with high-performance camshafts and supports turbo, nitrous and supercharger applications. The software program allows live monitoring, recording and examination of diagnostic codes and datalogs including number of starts, engine temperature and rpm operation. New maps, software, firmware updates, map analysis and tech support available online at no charge. Because of possible clearance issues, some aftermarket exhaust systems may require modifications or relocation of their O2 sensor port bungs.

These one-inchers are crafted from seamless 0.120” (3 mm) wall 4130 chromoly tubing and precision mitered, mandrel bent and TIG welded. They are available in 10”, 12”, or 14” heights with integrated risers that fit the stock upper triple trees with the 3.5” center-to-center spacing found on most Harley models, and are 1/2-13 threaded. Burly HEX air cleaner The new Burly Brand HEX air cleaner features an “industrial hex design that fits organically to the H-D V-twin engine with a ‘less is more’ attitude and a very attractive price tag,” according to Burly product supremo Sean Delshadi. Made from strong, stamped steel and finished in a durable black powder-coat or chrome finish, they come with the “Slotted” faceplate design and a K&N air filter installed for maximum performance and filtration. The new air cleaner features oil breather bolts that route heat and chemical resistant, flexible tubing through the unit and back to the intake manifold for minimal oil seep. “The HEX design complements the H-D V- twin lines and many other build styles,” says Sean. “Its thin profile provides plenty of knee clearance without sacrificing air flow, while the rounded-off corners in the design eliminate snagging your pants.” Burly Brand also offers two optional faceplate designs, the “MX” and “Wrench” – available in chrome and black. These stamped steel faceplates are sold separately and are a quick swap-out with just three easy bolts.
