Here's what running V&H Big Shots without a tuner for 10K miles looks like. Pretty lean.
If you're going to upgrade your Harley, any Harley, you need to do a Stage I. Full exhaust, (slip-ons at a minimum), open air box and a tune. You can't do any major changes to air flow without a tune. Your bike will never run right and you won't be able to get maximum power...

I understand. My previous (first) bike, 07 Sportster, had the intake & exhaust done without a tuner, and it was having major problems. I got a tuner, it was great. The "conventional wisdom" over in the Sporty section has been that you can do pipes only without a tuner, so I thought my Low Rider would be OK with just the pipes. Apparently not.
The cost difference between the FP3 and the Power Vision is only $70 at Fuel Moto, so the PV seems like a no brainer. Plus it can be used on another bike for around $190 if I read that right. So there's going to be a PV in my future.

I wrecked my ‘15 Street Bob in October and I picked up a ‘14 Low Rider last month. It’s stock other than exhaust and forward controls(both which I dislike). Glad I still have my Power Vision to use on this bike.

The interesting thing is that nobody is talking about the Harley tuner. Since they quit selling the Pro, why bother? You need a tuner, hopefully one that is not permanently attached to the bike, that gives you various tuning options. If that tuner can be moved to another bike, even for an additional cost, is a plus.

You might already know this (and taken advantage of it), but apparently if you were the original purchaser have some proof (documentation) that your bike was "Totaled", Dynojet will give you another License at NO Cost

After a few years of keeping up with this thread from time to time I finally have something to add. I just purchased a 2014 LR from a close friend of mine with only 2000 miles on it. He's buying a new 2018 LR in the softail chassis and he didn't want to see this one go too far away. I've admired this bike since he bought it new a few years ago and until recently I had no idea he was planning to trade up. It is stock besides being reflashed for the Vance and Hines short exhaust. I'm really looking forward to learning what I can from this site as I put some miles on this beauty.
