Default V&H FP4 tuner?

I was a huge fan of my FP3 tuner years ago on my dyna and baggers...

planning on just doing a pipe on the new FXLRST so don't need anything too crazy; just seeing who's running them on the new M8's and what you think of them?

Personally, I would go with a PowerVision. And buy it from Fuel Moto as they will give you free tunes and support for the life of the product.

It's nothing crazy - but it's an excellent tool.

Yeah PowerVision is a better tool, and its really similar in price, and Fuelmoto is the best place to buy it from.
I got the powervison for my bike. They have a 2021+ tuner options as well.

I have both PV and FP3 on my M8's .. I would opt for the FP3 because of the easy use with your phone even wen doing a autotune.
Opinions will always differ, if you were satisfied with the FP3 in the past, it will be no different now.

I just ordered the FP4 tuner last week it and it should be delivered today. I have no FP3 experience so I'll let you know how it is when I get some time to play around with it.

Broadly speaking, an FP4 is the same as an FP3, the housing is a bit smaller, uses a different app and has the new 2021 HD OBD plug, but in fact it does everything an FP3 did.

If you plan on only ever having one bike then either will do. If you plan on many bikes and maybe even doing a mate a favour or your spouse gets a bike then the PV has the lower cost as additional licenses can be purchased.

I do wonder about only going to fuel moto on the basis of the map file as dynojet has a database of tunes for registered users I believe.

how did it work out for you? I got mine today and so far it doesn’t show the auto tune option nor the vast options for selecting aftermarket pipes. No throttle response option either.
