Default Too lean?

2007 rk custom with screaming eagle a/c, canned program, rush slip ons. 10,000 miles.
The bike runs great.

Im interested in putting on V&H pro pipe with quiet baffle. Will i run too lean with only the canned program? Will i need a tuner?

Will i notice much of a power difference?

Thanks
Sam

you will probably not have much if any gain, you already have free-flow intake and exhaust, you are simply changing the character of the exhaust, not a huge change in flow.

because of that you will likely be fine with the tune.

I would check with member "Iclick" who is the forum tuning expert as described to me by other forum members. PM him for accurate information.
Good luck with your project.
