My apologies if previously dealt with, but i live in the desert, 110-120 all summer. Will i be okay with tuner permanently in bike re heat? 2nd ques, got a 2017 stock fatboy with v&h slip ons. Getting decel pops. Once setting up fp3 with proper canned map will pops be taken care of or will i still need to go i to decel pops and adjust? Thanks ahead of time.

 

I've never had to run autotune for decel pops (although I should run it someday anyway), but I think the only way to know is to use the canned tune then see how it goes. But just looking at my FP3, I'd guess being subject to those temperatures might damage it. There is no reason to keep it in the bike once the canned tune is done OR while you autotune it.

 

Thx for reply. Im not referring to auto tune. More so the decel pops tab under edit maps. I did chat with V & H asking about temps and they said it should be fine, but i’m a little skeptical.

 

I would run autotune anyway, it'll help your bike run better with your installed mods over a canned configuration. Your popping might be taken care of in the process.

 

Roger that. 👍

 

I agree with using auto tune as it seemed to be the best result for me when I was using an fp3 on one of my old bikes.

for your second question, based on your pic I’m assuming it’s Arizona. I didn’t have any issues leaving my fp3 on the bike even in Az summers. That’s just my experience so don’t hold me to that. Once you have it tuned to your liking you could take the fp3 off just to be safe.

 

I would call V&H support. They will tune it for you over the phone. Easy as can be.
