I do. I also read this thread where someone posted that the PV tuner saves the stock tune so it can be reloaded for trip to the dealer.

question is, will digital tech know it has been flash then returned to stock tune?
As long as the calibration ID on the tune in the ECM when the digital tech is plugged in, matches a HD calibration ID from stock or the SE tuner, the digital tech doesn’t flag. I know from first hand experience that a friend of mine reloaded his stock tune and the DT didn’t flag his bike. (Not me btw, I would never do anything to jeopardize my warranty).

So what? I have a SE tuner. I can load as many tunes as I like. Date and time logs are meaningless.

This is true but the digital tech will still be able to know that you had flashed the ECU with a non Harley tuner. Even though you returned the ECU to the stock tune.

Where did you get this information from?

I love Internet forums.

I saw it myself at the dealer on the digital tech.

Interesting. So did I... I guess the 30 years of my career in IT didn’t help me learn how to read a display.

Okay you're right let's just let the OP be the guinea pig. He can report back and let us know for sure.

Don’t know why I’m worried about a warranty. I’ve owned a lot of bikes in the past 30 years, always modded them out of the gate and never needed a warranty. Maybe xied will be out soon.
