All the dyno folks I've talked to say ~5-6 hrs average to get a really good tune. If Battlefield only took an hour I'd question if they even rolled in on a dyno...

Right here would be a good starting point. Doc would be the best trainer, but not everyone has the ability to learn, these guys probably learned just fine, I'm not saying they didn't. Give Doc a call and ask him, he's a nice guy and won't bite your head off. If you get a bad tune it will end up costing a lot of money and aggravation, make sure it is done right the first time. Call Doc, if there is a good tuner in your area he will tell you.

There are a couple that I can recommend, Skip's Performance in Winchester Va and Zepkas, both will do a nice job.

You can do a V-Tune in your garage, with bike idleing with slight throttle increases.
It will give you a reading that you can blend with the map you have selected that will get you a better tune.
It may help to give Steve a call at TTS, he can walk you throught this.

Sure you can!
Steve walked me through it last night.
Now you are not going to get a full range of cell coverage, but enough to see
whats happening.

And even in the little area of cells that it covered, there was a difference.

As he stated its cold in central Penna, and can`t go out for a ride, but he can accomplish a V-Tune in the lower rpm idle ranges.

It works pretty well, you can see it noteing the cell blocks in the rpm range the engine is running in.

Sorry if I was miss leading.

Agreed. They probably already had a map on file for that set-up. Beats the hell out of paying for hrs. on the dyno. Better yet is doing the tune yourself as instructed with the TTS kit.
