Usually when you run AT the only thing you will see change will be the VE's and some spark advance. As already stated, if you go back and read older posts, you will see instructions on how to "compare" tunes.

Yes thanks for the replies. I do see the ve tables changing. Now have a new issue. Yesterday I ran an auto tune, started log and placed it in my solo bag. I have the wire running up through my seat. Did my ride and found the PV was back to the main screen, no data log. I figured maybe all the bouncing around in the bag stopped it. This morning I ran auto tune again but ran the PV into my jacket pocket which I have usually always done. Did 35 miles and stopped and the PV was on what slot to save the tune too. No data log going. Any ideas ? Thanks.

How many knock events are OK? Some say none, some say a few. I'm just about down to none, but I some times get a few. I took a 300 mile ride, and only one log (about a 20 minute log) had a few knock events. I thimk my current tune might be the one, so far no knock events, time will tell.
NO knock events are ok. Fix the problem area and be done with it.

Thanks for the info. Went for another ride tonight and made certain I hit mode until I was in the "hits" screen. I see some red and some green after riding for a while I'm not seeing any deltas on WinPV, which is what has me totally confused.
I did also reset TRIM when exporting.

I've said this before, folks need to read this crap BEFORE doing any runs. To me it's just pure laziness when someone keeps coming back here asking the same questions over and over, when all the answers are here in this thread.
For the last 2 months it's the same beginner questions over and over. Soon this thread will be 1000 pages with the same crap hashed out 50 times. It amazes me that people will spend 500+ on this tuning gadget but refuse to read and learn. Then come here and complain that things are not going as they expected. The reason things don't go as planned is simple....you didn't do your homework first.
Do yourself a huge favor and sit down and read the thread. Guess what...you might just learn something. The reason I say that is you won't fully understand the answers you get here until you learn the basics.

You dont need more than around 35 or 36 degrees for these things to run nice. What exactly are you trying to to do? What are your timing concerns?

Go out and sit in traffic and see what your temps are like. Then decide what's you feel is good for your bike. The system is useless to start with and more of an annoyance, if anything. But if you sleep better with it engaged then set it up. Just don't expect it to do much. Set it up...putt around until it engages....and watch your temps continue to rise.....lol. It's just Harley's way of giving people a false sense of security.
