Hi guys, I don't want to be the guy asking the same questions over and over so I have been doing a lot of reading in this thread and either I missed the answer or forgot I seen it after 500+ pages.

I have done about 11 autotune basic runs. My ve changes are less that 5%.
I have 2 cells on the rear cylinder at 4000 rpm/10% tps and 4500 rpm/20% tps that are always high enough to cap. I have always capped and never scaled.
Do I just blend/smooth these or should I scale?

Today I decided to get familiar with logtune so I followed the instructions in the "PV Tuner Basic Instructions version 1.13" document and got a couple of logs to play with. After I got done I compared the .pvt file I created with logtune to the .pvt the logtune run was based on and I seen no changes in timing.
Am I heading in the right direction?

Anyone ever hear you motor ping, and nothing showed up on your DL? I swore I heard my motor ping a few times but nothing showed up in my DL. I would like to add, that I've not had an audible ping in a couple months which was not related to a high heat condition.
What should I make of this?

Well, I smoothed out those rogue cells and did some more log tunes. I seen there were 2 detonation events and logtuner pulled 2 degrees there. I did a couple more after that and all seems well. I think I will just ride it for a while and see how it runs.

After running a few times in AT, my results kept coming back with peaks over the 127% maximum so I scaled the map.
After a few more AT runs it resulted in all cells under 115% (engine displacement now shows 108.4ft3)

Default ECU CalID?

I made a few changes to my tune this evening and then loaded it into an empty slot. I then flashed that tune to the bike. All normal typical up to this point, but for some reason I wanted to check to make sure that I loaded the right tune (that I actually picked the right one), but I cant find anywhere on the PV that shows the name of the currently loaded tune. I did however find ECU CalID under the Vehicle Info page, but the ECU CalID was a tune that I was using over a year ago and has not been loaded on the PV in at least 8 months. Is the ECU CalID the name of the currently flashed tune and if not where do I find the name of the currently flashed tune? If it is the name of the currently flashed tune, that means I have been running on a tune that is over a year old and a tune that I know I have modified and reflashed at least 6 times since then.


What gives????????

Have you used WinPV to change the Calibration ID under Tune Info? That is the field that shows up under Vehicle Info.

New Power Vision firmware and software went live yesterday, it can be updated via PV update client. This now includes 2014 FLH support. The tune database has not yet been updated for the 14 FLH models, however both Dynojet & Fuel Moto have a good assortment of maps which are available upon request.
