You have a Stage I build, AC, and Mufflers. the DynoJet that you have has an auto-tune feature. Their are a lot of maps for your build on the net.
No not to late. I got the origional tune from FuelMoto then I ran the Autotune a couple of times and the bike is running just fine. I sometimes just over think things and wonder if the tune is good enough. Don't want to do any long term damage.

I should just take a deep breath and leave a good running bike alone.

So, what type of problems are you having with the bike, backfiring on decell?
Fuel mileage down in the 20 -30's.?
Bike running HOT, plugs looking White?
etc.

Or are you just looking to spend $300+ and have the bragging rites to "I have a Dyno tune that cost me $300+"

The few, 2-4 HP and 2-4lb. TQ that you MIGHT get from a "Tune" in my book sure is not worth that much $$$.
Re-read the manual on the DynoJet and how to use the Auto tune. You'll come out a lot richer in $$ and knowledge.

I agree First It,s a Harley if it runs good now you don,t need a Dyno job .
You will not get your moneys worth .

Oh snap...I didn't realize you only had an A/C and slip ons...agree with Kenney. Save your money for a dyno if (when) you do a cam upgrade or something more significant. Even if you add pipes later on, the PV is all you really need with AT to get everything running smoothly.

If you need help with decel popping, you can PM me and I'll give you a list of things I did after my 2-1 V&H install to get rid of it.
