Default Minimum Miles for a Dyno Tune

What do you think should be the minimum amount of miles on your bike before you would have it dyno tuned.

I have Stage 1 A/C new pipes headers back and Power Commander V. But I only have 110 miles on my bike. I was thinking on getting it tuned at Fuelmoto next time home but thought it might be better to have some more break in miles on it. So what say you. Thanks

At least 500 miles, you need to give it time for the motor to properly break in. Most dyno tuners are going to push your bike to the max and you don't want to do that with only 110 miles
