Good to see what is going on but I believe it is not strictly necessary. So you could have your phone off and then check how the tune is doing from time to time. In the same way you can turn the bike off and come back and resume auto tune another day.

my bad, i meant the FP3 will drain your motorcycle battery.

I have the stock 103 HO intake vented to atmosphere with a K&N air filter, Cobra RPT 2 into 1 exhaust and a FP3 tuner. Downloading maps is really easy, and you can Autotune if you want to. V&H customer support is good also. Bike sounds and runs strong.

TTS and a good dyno tune. DONE

Then you do an auto tune. Then you do some test riding.

If you have a specific problem you upload the map to V&H describing said problem and they create a tweaked map that you can then install.

What he said.

If youre not planing on doing any further upgrades, why not drop a tuner and just do a proper dyno tuning? Tuning people will just use PV or TTS or similar tuners to flash your ecu, and you dont need to have any tuning box on your bike, and of course spend that extra money on a box that you dont plan to use when all of the tuner prosess is done. It is recommended to dyno tune no matter any ways, right?

I have the FP3 on my Low Rider S with RSD Slant Pipe. It's easy to use and does the job fine. If you're not planning on going further than Stage 1, paying more for features you'll probably never use doesn't seem worth it.

I haven’t noticed any discharge issues with it on my wifes bike.
During colder temps, the bike will sit for as long as two weeks with out riding it. Longer than and I plug a trickle to it.
In fact, the app only functions if I turn it on from the phone.
only reason I leave it on the bike is that its a cross bones. And getting the seat iff to uncover the battery requires tools.

I think now the fp3 is useful beyon a stage1
I know for a fact it will isolate cam options.
After that, I don’t know tho

if you’re ginna forego a tuner and have your bike dynoed. You will only have to do this when ever you make changes to engine mods. That includes air cleqners and pipes. So yeah. I would rather have a tuner. On my 2014 I changed exhaust 3 times and air cleaners twice.
Do an auto tune and done. No appointmentments and ir $400 dyno fee each time
