Default good buy?

Looking at getting a power commander 5, put my bike on a dyno yesterday, the guy said I'm 2 points to lean in the upper rpm's and 2 points to rich at idle. looking at going with the pc 5 to straighten it out. I know the more expensive one has an LCD screen but I don't need to see it, I just want it to work properly.. think this is a good buy or are there better suggestions for around the same price.. its for my '08 super glide

Ask your dyno guy. Let him know your expectations and ask what he prefers to work with. A PC-5 is not a bad tuner. Although I've heard stories of them going bad on this forum, i don't know anyone personally that it happened to

You guys are all assuming the dyno guy has a clue like anything else somebody needs experience in actual tuning not just know to run the basic machine and look at a chart , food for thought ........
