Who knows...?
I recently bought an 07 Sporty 1200. It has V&H short shots and a Arlen Ness big sucker AC kit. I ran the speedo diag and I am not throwing any codes. I pulled the seat and the battery cover, no programmer. My question is, shouldn't I be running lean, or throwing a trouble code if I do not have a fuel management programmer or the ECM hasn't been tuned?

You are definitely running lean if you have no management but it won't necessarily throw codes. Get it tuned or your playing with fire IMO.
*Edit* Misread and thought you just installed those without a tune. It might be flashed as somebody mentioned. Have it check to be sure and check plugs as suggested.

Maybe the previous owner had a tuner for it but didn't include it with the bike? x/ides? May have had a stage one download? I would have a shop take a look into it before something burns up.

I think if you use the procedure to check codes it will display a part number first if it has a download for the ECM. I noticed this on my previous bike after I had the stage1 download done.
