I'd think that a dyno is certainly one of those jobs where you don't want anyone doing it who doesn't know exactly what they're doing - and I'm willing to bet that happens more often than people realize.[/QUOTE]

Could not have said it better!!!!!

When I got my bike back from the shop {NOT HD} that dynode my old bike I found issues with it that were not there when I gave him the bike. I was happy with the way the bike ran,,,,, but I was not going to give him a bike I just paid 20,300 dollars for. And let him do the same thing to this bike.
Its the same reason I don't like to let anyone do work on my bike if I can do it myself.

My 2 cents: if you're not gonna do a cam go with V&H's tuner and download. Cam it and let the dealer run with it. Cost effective would be the first, and then come back and cam/top end it after the warranty.
