Default Tuning
Anyone know of a good, reliable place to have my 2011 RK tuned in the Wilkes Barre, Scranton PA area? Have stage I, Vance and Hines true duals, SERT. Has a lot of decel popping and I think is running hot. Thanks in advance.

Why don't you just take it to Electric City HD in Scranton? Seems like the obvious solution to your needs.

If you have decel popping, I would be looking for an exhaust leak.

I like ECHD, just wanted to check because I know that tuning can be done or it can be done right and wanted to just know where people have had experiences before I brought it in.
