i'm no expert but from what i do know if you have the stage 2 set up and have
a fuel management device you may want to have it checked for lean afr so you don't damage your engine
or if you want the last ounce of power from your 103 you would have to get it dynoed
the can probably take the sidecar off for the dyno
I had problems finding DYNO/TUNER also. I talked with PCIII manufacturer and they gave me a list to select from. They were ATV/Motorcycle places. I selected a SportsCenter that supported the PCIII. I could not believe how much Harley had the trike leaned out (it was a standard download that was close to my trike configuration). You may also be able to take your sidecar off for the DYNO/TUNE.
I ran into the same problem blacklion ran into, here is how I solved it. I ask around for a good independent shop found a guy who was more than willing to work with me with a trike. We installed a T-max ECM and downloaded a generic program for what my bike had done to it. I ran the bike for several weeks and got back to him on how I thought it was running. After several weeks I took it back and had him lean out the air fuel mixture in the upper RPM range in 4th and 5th gear cruising range to get a little better gas mileage.
