Default SE Smart Tune PRO Automatic Tuning Module

Link to SE Auto Tuner

Purchasing a '23 Low Rider ST. Intake needs changed so I can fit on the bike, and the exhaust needs changed so I can hear the bike. Looking at tuners. Not ready to kill warranty until at least a few thousand miles are on it, because brand new things have failures too. I also don't have the spare time to stare at data logs and manually tune the bike either, so wideband O2, proximate base map, and "auto tune" appeal to me.Thundermax is on my short list, but it looks like MoCo is offering similar function. Cam is most likely in my future, but I'm going to just enjoy stage 1 for a while. If SE autotune isn't what I'm looking for, I'll just wait on exhaust until I am comfortable with the bike being a solid build.

What says you folk?

If you want to keep your warranty you only have one option, the SE autotune. The SE unit wont exceed EPA limits though, I would wait and get the dynojet autotune, a bit spendy though at $1000 for the full setup.

FWIW, there is absolutely NO NEED for the HD “emmisions compliant” (lean and hot) SE “SmartTuner” system. No need for you to stare at data logs either. Simply do your stage1 mods (a/c and exhaust) and use the HD Pro Street Tuner to do a couple street autotunes, process the results, and load the new calibration into your bike and you’re done.
When you go to the next step in mods you may need to step up the tuner capability as well but not needed for what you are considering now. Save your money for the next upgrade and proper dyno tune.

I have a thundermax on my 22 street bob and it has been flawless for 4000 miles. Excellent throttle response and performance plus easily works with the stage 2 i added. 18mm wide band auto tune. Bike runs very cool as well. Only drawback is a decrease in gas mileage. I am getting 35-36 mpg and get on it a lot.

The screaming eagle products are limited in what they can do and not cheap, and are not the best performance option out there. Some people worry about the warranty and use them only for that reason, but that is a personal decision.
