    Narrowband sensors are actually more accurate than wideband sensors, but it can only detect where fuel mixture leaner or richer than stoichiometric. Where wideband can give you current fuel mixture value across wide range.

    You can really give that bike longer highway legs, if you change the belt and trans pulley out to the euro spec 1200 units. Really lowers the rpms on the highway. I also changed the primary chain and sprocket, when my stator went out, to the 1200 units. That lowers the rpms even more. It depends on the year whether or not there is a difference in the 883 vs 1200 primary gearing. Some years were identical. I also swapped out the 3.3 for the 4.5 gallon tank and with that set up, I could get about 200 miles out of a tank full. I had more range than most of the touring bikes I ride with lol. I really miss that bike.

    For those wondering;
    VE = Volumetric Efficiency (a measure of an engine's capability in % to fully fill it's cylinders with ambient air at any given RPM for a given throttle position). If that's still confusing, then think of the words AIR DENSITY. It's a comparison of how much total air mass is entering the cylinders on the intake stroke vs how much air mass would theoretically enter if the cylinder was set to ambient conditions when the intake valve closes. That's where the percent portion comes in.

    Better check if you got the wires for the fuel injectors right. There's a front and a rear, & when in autotune if they're reversed- the bike will run shiddy & stall. Found this out the hard way, guy that did the 1200 kit on my old sporty fugged up- it was essentially running like a diesel & would stall just like your bike. It never stalled in autotune again after I put the injector wires where they belong.

      I have an XR1200 as well, and I really think they should've found an XR to build instead of this 883 Iron. The general clique of this channel would've been more receptive of a better handling model likely, and Yam probably would've been more into the mods than Spite.

    It says to wait 10 seconds, but it actually takes 16 to 20 to reset. If you watch the speedo, the needle will slightly move when it resets on a sportster. Sadly, it doesn't work the same way on the Dyna. I always count to 30 just to be sure.

It could cause very little damage and leave you stranded on the side of the road with the bike not moving, or you will end up stranded on the side of the road with a fuckload of damage done inside the primary, and it can get bad. That is literally the only thing on a Sportster that mechanically should be swapped at the first chance. Some guys don't have them let go until 20-40k miles, but I also have heard of it happening as early as 5000 miles. The benefit of spending $200 and not having to worry about it, plus having an all around better clutch is worth it. I hope I scared you enough to do it hahaha

I went with the Barnett kevlar extra plate kit but in the process I ended up breaking my pressure plate being clumbsy, so then I ordered a Barnett billet pressure plate. The 25% spring I put in made the clutch veryyyy hard to pull in so I fired some 1FNGR easy pull levers and a Magnum black pearl clutch cable and let me tell you the difference is insane. The bike hooks up hard and shifts amazing. It was 110% worth doing both for performance and for reliability. I put one full season on the setup so far and I can't picture going back. If I did it again I would probably go for a 15% spring tho because the 25% really was too much without the easy pull levers. I have carpul tunnel in both wrists but am not "weak" by any means, but the 25% is something I would use on a drag bike haha

      I think the fascinating thing is that you have to spend over a thousand dollars to make it marginally faster than a honda rebel, risk blowing it up when replacing it with the 1200 kit, and then spend a bunch more time and money to autotune it for an additional 500 miles so it is not trash.

My svartpilen makes almost as much bhp as a sportster 883 and its less than half the cc. but its not about the power its about a low stressed V twin, still I don't like there 90s look.

      False, for this application because it is a new set of pistons, jugs and heads - we need to slowly bed them in. The reason you don't need to do this on a factory bike brand new from a dealership is because they typically have already done that for you.

    Just buy the bike by the engine where you do not have to do all this expensive extra stuff. Harley’s can only revv so much. Revs make horsepower. Big pistons are heavy especially( high inertia) with long heavy rods and long push rods.

      A 1200 is like 2 grand more to start. A basic 1275 conversion is cheaper than that, while still having the cheaper 883 insurance and more horsepower. To each thier own but for some of us, this wins to "just buy a 1200".
