Hey yamaharley
That being said that swapping out the front pully will alter the reading on the speedo can that be recallabrated electronicly? My brothers cbr had some sort of speed sender from the front sprocket does Harley do the same. Sorry just not familiar with these bikes as of yet

(at least on the 2007-2013 models)
I don't see that option in the SE Pro Street Tuner software, I do not have the actual tuner, just the software.

Hi group. I'm new to Harley's but been riding bikes of all sorts since 10 years old Just brought myself a new 2017 custom 1200 and I'm looking to install a stage 1 kit after it's 1000 mile service any suggestions. Nothing real loud. Just the nice Harley rumble is what I'm looking for
ferther note any of you guys found the 1200 's have really long gearing especially in 5th and has anyone dropped the front belt sproket ( read ) pully down in size a coupe teeth ?
glad to be a member of this group
cheers Colin

If you are going for a tuner I urge you to use the Power Vision 5, it has the most options and you can tune the bike as you wish, auto-tune works well, upgrades to the tune are canned so importing or flashing the ECM is not a problem at all, its simple, hands down best tuner out there.
Be advised that HD has had difficulties with selling the SE tuners (EPA issues) which do little by comparison.
I suggest read-up, write questions here on products, the "experts" here are helpful (most of the time).
Welcome to the HD club, ride safe, keep it on the rubber and enjoy the rattles.

1200c will eat highways miles, stock. No need to swap anything.
Not sure why you need to wait til 1000 miles to do a stage 1 that is really just swapping to less restrictive pipes/slip-ons, higher flow air cleaner, and tune. You can do that now with no problems. No need for ceremony.
cost.. depends on how much you want to spend. Could be a $350 with cheap slip ons, dealer lean tune, and a free flowing air cleaner. Could be $1000+with full exhaust swap, quality tuner, and free flowing air cleaner. That all depends on your tastes and what you are willing to spend, like mentioned above by drinktothat421.
dropping down gearing to an 883 set will get you off the line faster but, you will be trading topend performance and ride quality for it. My bike still has an 883 set but, i dont use it on the highway for long distances. I'd hold off on that until you've rode around on your stage 1. Tour bike is basically strangled right now. You may feel differently later.

i want a baloney cut slip on which I don't see Vance and Hines having as I want the bike to keep its standard clean look, I'm going with the SE air cleaner but one that fits under the standard air cleaner cover that I can still keep the 1200 custom badge.
They have a good selection of bafflels to choose from and have a pretty good sound from what I'm hearing in YouTube so I'm sure I'll have plenty of options to swap out to a volume I like with out pissing off the neighbors. I'm open to tuners also (suggestions welcome) I don't mind paying just if I'm digging deep I want all the bells and whistles.
I love my custom it's s good blend of Harley/ street fighter with a terrific engine
