I have the Power Vision, I paid $400 for it but it will flash your ECM so it does not have to stay on the bike. It also works as real time gauges for different sensors in the bike and can clear DTC codes (hopefully never have to use it for that though). Mine is basically plug and play, Dynojet has preloaded maps depending on your setup and then you just plug in, flash, unplug, ride.
Now just to repeat and see if it gets a little closer.
However, this may be more work than the OP wants to do. However, the good news is that the Power Vision and Log Tuner software make it much easier to get your tune almost spot on without the need for a dyno. Without a Dyno or a device with an autotune feature any solution you choose will be a "generic" solution.

They are plug and forget. However, they are also the most "barbaric" solution. They change the voltage coming from the O2 sensors to make the ECM think the engine is running leaner than it really is. The ECM then adjusts like it is designed to do to get the voltage coming from the O2s in the range it is supposed to be in.

Highly recommend talking to Fuel Moto. They had a deal going awhile back for their tuner and SE stage 1 air cleaner. I think that I paid around $350 for both. The tuner will come already mapped and ready to go and if you have any problems with install or the map, Fuel Moto's customer service is top quality! http://fuelmotousa.com/

Go with Fuel Moto you will not regret it. I purchased a PC-V and stage one intake from them. It came pre mapped and runs so much better. Changed from screamin eagle to rush 2.25 mufflers and gave them a call and they sent me a new tune. Great customer service and highly recommended.

I've heard real good things about Dobeck. The newest, (Gen 4) can actually be tuned ,"on the fly" right on their handlebar mounted AFR gage.
I ordered one, using another forum. Got $50.00 off and free shipping.
I've heard their tech support is great... We'll see.
Good luck with whatever you get.

I had XIED's on my stock 2010 FXDC and they did a great job. Added some slip on's (Rush w/1.75 baffles) and had an aggravating decel pop. From what I've read, most people can get by with slip-on's and the XIED's without experiencing decel pop, but I wasn't one of them. Installed a Big Sucker AC and Dobeck TFI and no more decel pop. The unit is adjustable, but leaves all the other functions of the ECM in a stock configuration. My MPG decreased a small amount, but the bike still runs cooler than stock, but with more power. Give em a look.
