Default Road Glide 3 Stage 1 Tune

Warning to all 2026 RG3 owners.

if you do a stage 1 on your bike ( air cleaner, slip ons and tuner) the only tune available thru the Screaming Eagle Tuner is a CALIFORNIA tune NOT a 49 state tune. If you live outside California you are screwed thanks to HARLEY.
This tune will make your bike run much leaner, hotter and have less power to satisfy California emissions requirements even though you don’t live in California
Harley falsely labeled this as a 49 state tune but the tune is exactly the same tune number as the California tune.
I did confirm this with Harley.

The 49 state should not be the same as the left coast tuner. I wonder why Harley did this.

Looks like there is another tune available, wonder what that is.

All the more reason to go after market once the warranty is off.
