Is there a way to see what differences have been made with each update? I just updated my FW, tunes, etc. for my PV2 this morning and I'd like to find out what updates have been made for the pre-loaded tunes. the 12D...2402 tune was not that great when I initially flashed it. Since then (a year or two) I've been tweaking tunes. I'd like to find any release notes that show what are in each of the updates. I can't seem to find them on the DJ or FM sites.
Thanks!
EDIT: The "Read Me" on FM's site only gives notes up to the 2013 FW update (Firmware Version 2.0.6-1340). If someone can point me to the most current notes, I'd appreciate it!

From what Dynojet says,
"Will the Power Vision overwrite a non factory tune? In most cases yes; the Power Vision doesnt care what tune is in the ECM. When the Power Vision is married to a bike, it saves a copy of whatever tune is in the ECM at that time. This tune will be saved in a hidden slot and called Original tune. If you restore Original tune with the Power Vision, it will write this tune back to the ECM"
So, you should be able to reflash the EMC with the Power Vision and new tune. The only time I can see needing the stock tune is if you are importing a tune from the Power Commander 3/5. That requires the stock tune to complete.
I'm gonna take a chance and get the PV. Hopefully I don't burn myself.

why would you burn yourself?
TTS, SE, PV are all foolproof now in respect to backing up existing calibrations from the ECM at the marrying stage. You're good and lots of people here to help
Sounds like the PV vs (other tuners), cost also can be a decision factor on the purchase of a tuner. One cost less than the other and you pay for what you get " the stament ". I've been there went the fuel pac route to find out the limitations of the tuner kinda wast of money. Everyone want the most bang for the buck. Can be a difficult decision when you drop a chunk of change.
I just had my bike dyno tunes with my power vision. I'll upload a tune file tonight when off work. They overheated my pipe and blued and goldened the heat shield at the collector and muffler body. Looking at this chart I am way too lean. Any input here? Even turned gold at the muffler turn out at the tailpipe.
Yup, samething happened to me. I called Drago (who I bought the 2:1 pipe from) to see if that was normal or a defect in the chroming. His reply was with 2:1 pipes the tuner need to put a fan directly facing the collector cause the heat collects there. He was kind enough to sell me a new muffler at a discounted price. When I had my other bike tuned I relayed what Drago told me. He put a fan on the collector and it was fine. Lesson learned.

Jeez, No wonder. Give that puppy some fuel, That is a H-D Dealer EPA Lean as hell tune.
slydog- now what did they claim to "tune" exactly? I think you got taken to the cleaners, unless you specifically told them you want a maximum economy tune. Look at your AFR at bottom of chart printout. As Smokey said- "lean as hell". No wonder your pipes blued. is that 16.16 AFR the "after tuned" run?? the HP/TQ lines are fairly jaggy as well.
Lots of shops with a dyno but unfortunately very few are actually good dyno tuners.
