Question Mods 1st, then ECU reflash or Tune 2nd?

I bought a Dynojet Power Vision tuner and will be installing a "Stage 1" air cleaner for my '14 XL1200V this weekend.

My mods are light (pipes, XL-VIED-14, air cleaner), but HD recommends ECU reflash w/ those types of mods.

Should the tune be done after the ECU reflash?

Thanks

If you have the Power Vision, there's no need to have the HD reflash. That's why you bought it.

A fairly common case of "RTFM" on my part.

Thanks

Have you flashed any tune to this point?
