On 05 Fattymy PCIII is under the seat as well. I remove my seat when I wash the bike and put a towel over that whole area. With my paint I am very careful how I wash & rinse.

"8 hours on a dyno, holy crap!!! My tune took like 1.5 hours."

The engine was cooled to the same temperature every pull to assure that the changes were constant. The Super Tuner gives you so many available changes that you want to play with them all until you find the peak and then work on the various cruise scenarios. Lots more adjustments and inputs than you get with SERT. That's why they discountinued SERT.

Try using Di-electric grease on the contacts, that should solve any of your moisture problems.

The Harley Store of Baltimore had 15 of the "L" version SERT in stock a month ago.

I got my SERT.....

I have a question....

What am I supposed to get with it. The box was sealed. There was only a small black box inside. I know the cable is sold seperately.... But dont I need a CD or software with it?

Newer versions of the SERT do not come with the cables, CD, etc.

If you are going to have it professionally tuned, all you need to do is give them the tuner (black box) and they will have everything else they need. If you ever want to DIY, consider buying a set of cables and a CD. Your dealer can get you both. The CD's are versioned witha letter on the end. I think the latest is F, G, H or higher. The difference between version F and H is the addition of new calibration files for newer models or combinations of components. Your dealer can help you determine what the older version of the CD is that will contain cals new enough for your model and year.

You can use on older CD in a pinch. It just won't have model and year specific cals for your setup. All that amounts to is a less close starting point when tuning. You start by loading a calibration on your bike and then fine tuning from that. Best case is to have a calibration that is the same as or close to what you have. But its not critical. You can start from a stock calibration and tune from there. It'll just take longer.

Also know that the CD calibrations are not your only option. There are places where you can find other users' cals that might be close or the same as what you need. This site is one place. Here is another: http://www.harley-davidson-forum.net/index.php

Thanks for the info.....

I am taking my bike to the shop for a Dyno tune so it sounds like I wont need the software or the cable. I will give them a call to verify. Thanks again.
