I'm gonna go true dual and diss the v&h long shots. I have a stage two with a hd super tuner and a dyno. Someone says they can dial it in from their laptop with the existing map.
Yes? No?

I'll probably get bashed for this answer

Possible with the "Smart Tune" function of the SE tuner, not a replacement for a proper dyno tune though. Since you dyno tuned last time may be able to get by with adjusting the VE tables with the SE tuner. Set the tuner to Smart Tune mode, ride the bike, load the info into the laptop, let the program make adjustments, reflash with the new tune. May need to repeat the process a few times.

For all of you ready to pounce all over my post:
1) YES, I oversimplified the process, doesn't sound like the OP was looking for a detailed lesson in street tuning just wondering if it was possible
2) Yes, there are other tuners out there and some are much easier to use than SEPST and offer more comprehensive tuning abilites. OP already has SE and sounds like he has a friend who knows how to use it. Why not take advantage of it
3) PLEASE DON"T TURN THIS INTO A "this tuner is better" THREAD
