Default Looking for Diagnostic tools

Bought a 2010 Road King classic, love my bike, I've doin alot of searching and looking for some diagnostic tools and software to run diag's on my bike and my freinds, I've seen the $3500.00 handhelds, I know some diag. tools are for the dealers only, so,,,,, has anyone found any decent and reliable tools (interface cables, connnectors,etc..) and software that can loaded on to my laptop that'll do some real good?. I'm pretty well up to speed on tech. stuff and competent with a computer, looking for the right combination of hardware and software to have a mobile diag. center.

I dunno what you need, but the TTS tuning kit (about $400) gets you access to trouble codes and just about all the ECU sensors. You can data log live for extended periods of time. It is full featured and easy to use but I don't think it helps outside the ECU and EFI system. You can use the diagnostic tools for any bike, but you can only program one or two depending on the option.
