I've heard that the M8 in my 2017 SGS has a 110mph speed limiter in the ecm, and nobody has figured out how to defeat or circumvent that limit.... anybody know anything about this?  Ive only had mine up to 108mph as of yet.

TTS tuner, Power Vision tuner, or Direct Link tuner. Nothing the MOCO offers, so no SE products will.
Ignorance is bliss, and accuracy expensive. How much of either can you afford?

I don't understand the comment above.
Do you mean that the TTS, Power Vision Tuner or Direct Link tuner will allow you to remove the 110 mph limitation, BUT the Harley Screaming Eagle Street Tuner will not?
I did not know there was a 110 mph limitation.

Because it's fun

I have several built in speed limiters. One sets behind me and jabs me in the ribs. When that one isn't installed old age and declining skills take over it's job.

yupper  we purchase these things hoping to have fun, and ride them rather than go to a dealer and look at the bike while  the big boys a t hd  try to figure out why all the issues , or how to piecemeal then to make it two years .   so its on your dime.

Because every once in a while you get to go onto Pocono Raceway and ride four laps.  Going 120 mph on my Road King this past summer was a blast.  :chop:

I do ride the speed limit on public roads/highways.

I ride at the speed limit or a shade over so I don't have to spend my time looking for the Fuzz instead of the scenery.    :bike:

No sir! I never have ridden at three times the speed limit on a public road! (At least, not on a Harley!) :bike:

Yeah, on the How Old Are We Thread I was pretty well up there.  Still on two wheels though.

My 2018 FLFBS Stage 4 will go 125 in 4th gear in about 10 seconds from zero and cuts off. Tires are rated @149 at least let 4th gear wind out!!
