What is the part# on the tuner? Can you post a pic? Your dealer should be able to hook you up with a cable kit and the software CD. You will need to load a new map with the cam change you're working on.

Cable kit $40. Software $45... training dvd $40....
I have had dealer tune mine on the dyno after the stage one and after cams....
Gojna look into software this year just to have it for future and incase I do a 2-1 pipe or other slight mods.

To answer your question, Yes the SERT is compatible with 09's. The Screamin Eagle Race Tuner, by design, can only be used on 1 bike. Once it's plugged into a bike it is forever mated to that bike's ECM. A new SERT when purchased from Harley has a security seal on the box which indicates that it has never been used.
If you purchased a used bike, and the seller included a SERT which was removed from the original packaging, it's a safe bet that your bike has been re-mapped. A disadvantage of the SERT is that the Original Base Map cannot be saved and only re-installed by a dealership. Harley Marketing which only is interested in the bottom line, does not sell the SERT as a ready to use kit. Each component such as cables and software must be purchased separately.
The SERT can tune and re-program many parameters of the ECM but to get the full benefits of it a Dyno is necessary. Not the best device for a DIY job.

Thanks man. Lots of money just for cams. Unfortunately probably can't swing it now due to costs involved. Sucks.
