You will need to remove the micro tuner. The fuel injector wires are plugged into the micro tuner and then wires from the tuner run back to the injectors.

I have the same setup. It will be very lean. Can fuel moto send you a updated map?

I have the FM Micro Tuner with my RC slip ons and decatted header. Runs great, but still some decel popping. I need to talk to them about a new map but happy with performance.

To me fast and ez tuners don't cut it. I always go to a dyno tuner after I put a tuner in. That way I know its right.

im thinking about removing the Micro tuner and getting either the VH Fp3 or the PowerVision. i feel like the bike is lacking alittle. i have a AN Big Sucker. FM Pro Touring slipons and a decatted stock header. tried several maps. not really satisfied only because my buddy has same bike and same setup except he has VIEDs and his bike runs as good if not better. so the only difference is the tuner.

Allow me to save you the trouble. It will run like crap, pop and run way to lean. Why is it you don't want the Micro Tuner?
