Default decatted head pipe

Is anybody riding a 12or 13 touring model with a decatted head pipe an no tuner.I just gutted my cat was going to put it on , not sure if I should ride it with no tuner.I have a spare head pipe with the cat. thought I would ask here before I put it all back together. My plan was to have the fuel motto micro tuner,but that's not gonna happen for a couple weeks, bob

Do you have slip on mufflers? A high flow air cleaner?

I'm riding a 2011 ultra (same as 12 and 13) with a de-catted head pipe, RCX pipes, FL Vieds set at 25% and a 2014 air cleaner. It runs great and (interestingly enough) it always pinged real bad until I replaced the air cleaner with the higher flowing 2014 unit.

If thats all you are doing,you do not need a tuner and by de-catting the header pipe,the AFR will be slightly richer.
