Default Auto tuner

Hi all I'm looking for an auto tuner for my 2012 road king also for my wife's 2013 Dyna switch back, I was told that the cobra FI2000 powerpro was A good one but I can't seem to find one. Anyone know of a good auto tuner thanks

the Cobra is junk, and doesn't consistantly work right/
you will be much happier with a pro tune done by a pro, but if you insist on a unit that will self tune, you should look into the DynoJet Powervision system.

There are several different tuners available, each having their pros and cons. You may want to base your choice off what mods have been done or what mods you may do in the future and how tech savvy you are. There is a ton of info on the forum to help you make a proper decision. Everyone has their favorite. Right now... mine is the FP3 from V&H. I've used the TTS Master Tune in the past but to get a good tune it required dyno time. Happy hunting...

Research to understand what an "auto tuner" is, and more importantly, is not. Their is a reason why the "sticky" threads at the top of this forum are long for auto tuners including PV and TTS. A more appropriate name for these devices is tuner assistant. lol

Thundermax works very well. I've had 3 bikes with it on them and never had any problems.

Consider
If you are looking for an add-on doodad that will eliminate the tuner you will:
1. Have no idea if the mods netted the expected results due to no performance measurement.
2. Have no idea what may be causing decel backfiring, off idle hesitations, poor fuel mileage, acceleration hesitations, pinging (detonation), etc, etc, etc.
IMO, unless there are no reputable tuners within a day’s ride, semi auto tune systems can help to make a bike seem to run better.
OR
Get a TTS Mastertune for 2 bikes (dual) and save $$.
Take your bikes to a reputable dyno tuner and you will be excessively happy with 2 bikes that run exceptionally well.
JME,
Bob
