HD Pro Tuner
I currently have a 'piggy back' type of fueler from a company call KiTech who sadly went bust last year. Its starting to play up and my Stealer has recommended a HD Pro Tuner as a suitable replacement. So everything KiTech related comes out and the Pro Tuner as I understand it is used to re-flash the 'map' in the ECU to suit your bike's 'stage' config and the type of pipes you are running. Apparently the 'maps' are provided by HD. Once done you get to keep the Pro Tuner and pass it on with your bike when you sell it.
I would appreciate feedback from anyone who's got this, and also as to how do they find it works?

I have the SE Pro Super Tuner & love the results.
The dealer will use the tuner and their software to tune your bike with the setup you have. It really needs to be dyno tuned to dial it in perfect, which I very strongly recommend. Regardless of what others say, a dyno tune makes a HUGE difference. The plug & play or piggyback tuners are just half-***.
The SEPST can be used to tune as many bikes as you wish. The street version (SE street performance tuner) is married to the bike, so make sure you get the pro tuner, not the street version. Street version is crap & has a lot of limits due to EPA bullshit. Pro tuner allows the tuner to adjust the AFR & timing spot on.
Pro tuner is $459 + your dyno tuning which will vary, but my dyno tune was $350, so I've got a total of about $800 in my tune....best money I ever spent on the bike.
As the poster stated above, the TTS Mastertune is equally as good, but more user friendly. Guy that developed this used to work for HD & went out on his own. Either way, you're good...basically I would recommend either the SEPST or TTS Mastertune & avoid everything else if you want to do it right.

Gaffy, do yourself favor and spend some time looking around this section of the forum before you commit. For my money the Power Vision is the best tuner on the market, so make sure you at least consider it. When purchased from Fuel Moto you'll receive unparalleled support. Buy informed and good luck!
