I bought a new TTS MasterTune but I don't think it is the right tuner for me.
I have 2016 Sportster 883 and have changed it to a 1200. I hooked up the TTS to my bike I realized it doesn't come with mapping. I have no clue on how to get mapping for my bike which I was planning on doing it myself but not sure where to start now.
Any suggestions on how to get mapping info? I am very frustrated and ready to toss the TTS
Hit "file" button, top left, then "Search for tuning file". Then just pick, year, family and then displacement. It will take you right to the file for your bike. Take a few minutes to read the Tuning Guide, it will explain it all.

Reason: edit
I'll post what Aaron Wilson from Hammer Performance sent me when I went from 883 -> 1250.
You should not use 80ci as your displacement however, use something like 78 (yes, even this is a little large).
The timing for a 1200 is less aggressive than 883. I would highly recommend going to the Hammer Performance
website and reading all of the information they have available (there is alot).
------------------
On Mastertune, enter this timing map, or a reasonable facsimile, for both cylinders:
Yes, set the displacement to 80. If you do these two things, it will be safe to run.
Optionally, set your AFR table like this, we've found it runs better than the factory AFR table which is way too heavy on the closed loop stuff:
One you're 20 miles or so into the gentle break-in, run your first Vtune session.
-------------------------------
My Iron runs great. I still have not changed any timing values. I need to get it to a dyno....
Looks like the OP may be a 'one & done' type, but regardless I'll post what I found for him.
After updating with the new Feb releases, here's what I see for a 2016 883.
I am assuming the OP still has the 883 gearing which is why I chose this file....

hope this helps,

sound advice overall, however I would do more closed loop on the 'cruising' portion of the AFR, which for a sporster is 2250-4000 and keep it open loop under 2000 (except for idle). something like this :
