Default Power vision question

I've heard conflicting reports on what the pv can and cant do

is there a reason or benefit to mounting the pv tuner on your bike. Does it have monitoring tools that I might like to view while riding such as engine temp or oil pressure?

like I said, I've heard it both ways and cant seem to find anything concrete in the manual or online.

There are several gauges you can pull up on it but after tuning bike there is no reason to keep it on.
I like to keep mine in safe place in case I need to flash a new tune.

You can view and log all of the channels native to the H-D Delphi databus.

From our Fuel Moto University support site:

How do I setup the channels?

Select “Datalog” from the main menu, then “Gauges”. Select the style of gauges you’d like to work by scrolling left or right. Tap the gauge to assign a channel, and the “Set Gauge Properties” dialog will appear. Tap the field that says “None” and then choose the source and the channel you’re interested in.

Not sure what having it dynoed has to do with not needing to monitor engine temp and such. Lol

But thanks for the info.

Thanks! I haven't really played with the actual tuner since getting it and the canned map installed back in march.

Still not sure I see where it describes how to set up those screens on the website though, but your quite here should be enough to get me going. Thanks again.

Any tuner will immediately void the warranty on a 2017 or later. The only tuner that doesn't is Harleys.

Now when I get my bike back from the dyno, I'll play around with it and set some gauges up
