I have a 2011 Softail Heritage Classic. I'm interested in turning on the Engine Idle Temperature Management System (EITMS). If I understand correctly this feature automatically shuts off rear cylinder at stops and auto restarts. According to my owners manual this feature comes from the factory in the OFF position.
Function. Frame sliders have a very simple purpose: protect your bike in the event of a crash. Specifically, they will come in handy in the event of a lowside type crash, where you lose traction and your motorcycle slides out from under you and down the road.
What a frame slider does is help prolong the process this same way, through destroying the puck and absorbing the force as designed, but also by lubricating your bike's contact with the road and distributing the force of impact outward to the rest of the frame.
