Default downloads
My dealer(from which I bought my bike)said I should start with a stage 1 download. Then I talked to another dealer who said you do not download 08 bikes you have to go with a tuner.
What to do.

It all depends on what you have done to the bike, have you changed the intake and exhaust then the dealer can download a program that best fits the bike, this is just a basic dowlonload to balance out the fuel ratio, if the intake and exhaust were modified. There is plenty of diffrent tuners out there and you may want to do a search for them here on the forums.
