Question for all the good lookin and smart people of the TOAK....

My buddy's OL with the 2017 Softail Slim S is looking for a tuner now that she added those pipes. Any suggestions? She has a smart phone but not sure if she or my buddy would be that good with the tuner that has a smart phone app...certainly not my buddy J who still has a flip phone

It might be a 2016...not sure if there is much difference between those 2 years or not...all suggestions welcome

Without hesitation a Dynojet Power Vision and for greater support purchase through Fuel Moto. I happen to go Direct in my case.

Thanks Stan! I posted the pic of her ST last night, not sure if y'all saw it. I rode it when it was still stock. Might have to test it with the mods on there.

Nothing like having people living in the garage of a residence to help promote community and preserve home ownership values...

Thanks OG! Will look at that too. I have the Power Commander USB III but it is probably nothing like the ones for the newer bikes

I'd be moving, where I live I could probably leave mine wide open and no one would take anything. I'll be damned if I'm going to be forced to though.
