Default Power vision tuner

Before I go ahead & order one of these tuners, just wondering if they are as easy to work with as they look ? I've watched a few of the videos online & they do look straightforward.

I'll be using it on my new 2016 slim S, replacing the stock mufflers with Rush slip ons & leaving the stock air cleaner.

I purchased one for my "13 BO and found it very easy to use. May have to go through a few tunes to find the correct one, however, its so easy to use its not that big of a deal. Worst case scenario you need to have a pro tune it, and will need to purchase a tuning device anyway. Might as well try it yourself first.

Order it through Fuel Moto. tell them what you have and they will pre load it. 15 minutes to set up.

If you make changes on down the line, they will support you...

They were the company I was looking at to buy it from so sounds good to me.

It's probably one of the more difficult tuners I've ever used. As far as setting up, loading tunes or using auto tune on the actual device it's easy. But once you get into the meat of the WinPv program to actually play with the tune parameters it's very confusing.

I wish Bazzaz would make a tuner for these bikes. Their tuners are way better in every aspect and much more user friendly.

I'm getting one for the Street Glide next week via Fuel Moto. I don't plan on getting too deep into it so I think I can handle it. Seems pretty straight forward to me.

It took some basic learning, but became easy after seeing it work.


Fuel Moto is the place to buy because their map support is excellent and lifetime for the bike/device.


One thing though. They currently do not have maps for the 110" motor in the S series bakes. The tech told me it would be a couple weeks.


I already used autotune on my stock setup and the bike runs smoother with better throttle response.


I'm only adding slip-ons, so I'll just autotune from the map that I made off the stock setup.

I had one on my 07 Street Bob and now on my 14 Fat Boy Lo. I did a lot of reading through threads, asking questions and playing around with it at first. Now I understand it and it is quite simple to operate. I have the PV with AT Pro wide band O2 sensors. The Fat Boy Lo's last Auto Tune session ended with a completely green screen, no changes were required. You can either keep it mounted to the bike and set up gauges or remove it once you are happy with your tune.

Fuel Moto has been great to deal with, very helpful and great support. Highly recommend getting it from them.

Ditto, go fuel moto! I used the same tuner on both my bikes for just an 100.00 licensing fee, great bang for the buck.
