Thanks! Wish you had a tach on the LIKE - to see if the idle speed changes.
The DownTown probably has a tach - is it EFI, too, like the LIKE?
Any change in idle on the DT?

What De-dee said. There is an analog tach.

Yes, wonder how that can be? No increase, yet smoother is felt by the rider. I never knew what I was feeling when I changed to Iridium - smooth, faster, both? Just knew it seemed smoother while stopping at lights - now worries about it quitting.

I have been using Iridium for the past 3 years on all my bikes. They are very reliable, Runs smoother, I also find bike more responsive. The best thing you can do for your bike. Go to
