Default Heavy Breather - Riding before ECM calibration

Hiya!
I was hoping I could get some input. When I bought my '14 SG I had the dealer put on Rineharts and install the stage I. I also paid in advance to have her race tuned when she had 1k miles on her. It's right under 1k miles, and I just bought a heavy breather. My question is if I install the heavy breather, will it damage the bike to ride it a hundred miles or so before getting her serviced/tuned?
Thanks,
Beez

Will be running lean. Just wait.

It may run slightly lean but 100 miles isn't going to do it any harm at all. I doubt you will notice much difference in how it rides during that time.

You're good, don't sweat it. You already had the Stage 1 download and you're ECM will adjust quite a bit on the 2014. Ride it and enjoy. A hundred miles won't hurt it a bit.
