Is there a plug in and forget it tuner?
With my metrics I had a cobra power pro tuner, plug it in and that's it. I've read about the FP3 and the auto tune process, but does a tuner for HD exist that you literally just plug in and walk away which will autotune?

Sure, its called a Power Pro tuner for your Harley:

But "just plug it in" can be more complex than you might expect.
You can get a TTS Mastertune, or a Dynojet/Fuel Moto Target Tune, depending on the device, you need to remove/replace O2 sensors, or your ECM, etc

I will look into the cobra power pro for my road King, I loved it on my Honda Stateline. The website for cobra in Canada must be different because I didn't see one for the the HD's.

I'm a big fan of planning for the future, even if you don't know what the future will entail for your Harley.
A Power Commander V from Fuel Moto, pre-mapped by them to your specific mods, is plug and play, and forget. Then, a year down the road when you decide to add cams or whatever, you can call Fuel Moto and they'll email you a new map for the new mods.
Future-proof...!

The Dynojet PowerVision from FuelMoto is just an extra step. They send it pre-loaded with a custom tune for your mods and you plug it into the ECU, download the tune, and then put it back in its box for when you further modify your bike. Nothing stays with the bike unless you choose to keep it there. A FP3 from FuelMoto is probably about the same deal. Auto tuning really isn't required if FuelMoto loads the map. Great company to work with in my experience.

Cheapest place to get them in Canada is probably FortNine (formerly Canada's Motorcycle).

I had the same thought process. I am sure I could get better mileage/performance with a feature rich tuner but did not want to bother with it. I got a Fuel Moto Micro - all pre programmed for my last bike and had no problems with plug and play. I have another sitting in a box beside me that will be installed this weekend on my new to me 2010

I like my thundermax w/autotune. It has one more step than plug and play. Of course you have to have a header with 18mm bungs. Step one: Unbox and replace the factory ECM, Step two: Remove 12mm O2's and install 18mm O2's, Step three: connect laptop and click - download your base map. Step four: Ride. In a few miles it will auto-tune and smooth out.
The best thing is you are done. You can swap intake, mufflers, cams, etc. and the auto-tune will take care of the rest. I have had 3 thundermax and like that feature of the autotune.

I getting my flame suit on, but here goes!
Maybe I drank too much of the TTS Kool-Aid....
But, from What knowledge I have learned and read. AIN'T such a thing as "Auto-tune"! (Marketing propaganda)
