DynoJet's calibrations are lame.
The economy tune is very close to stock and the performance tune is kind of fierce for lightly modified stage one engines.
+1. Thats what I did as I was not comfortable using the Win PV software myself. My bike ran much better than the HD download with the initial MAP Jamie sent on my PV, he tweaked it and it was better , them he had me send the 3 data log runs and sent me back a "custom" MAP based off my Data and the previous MAP and it now runs even better .

When you say it runs better what are the noticeable differences? I am on the edge of getting one, but I am not sure what the expectations are or should be. I have posted on this and most guys reply that it will run better and if I want to do future mods them I will have what I need for the future. I just want to know what to expect for $500. Can you or anyone give more detail as to what runs better actually means? Is it a $500 runs better?

Thanks
Joe

Yes... simply put.

I got mine with the FM custom tune, and the support from Jamie to get this tune right has been amazing. I've learned as I've used it more, and now can adjust and dial-in my tune. After a couple basic logging sessions, and Log Tuner calculations, the bike runs like a top... well worth the $500, given I can change, reflash or adjust as much as I want/need...

To me my bike runs better than it did stock, better than it did with the HD Stage 1 down load (that is EPA Compliant)
1. it is more responsive, crisper throttle response,, less TBW lag
2.cooler
3. virtually no exhaust popping under any type of use . Redline shifts, hard downshifting with engine braking
4. better fuel economy, Im getting 40 -42 with a 103 stage 1 bike that is ridden hard and on a lot of 65 -85 mph freeway and canyon riding
5. No "piggy back" tuner on the bike
6. Ability to reflash in a couple minutes to the stock HD tune if Im ever worried about warranty work
7.PV will grow with any future engine mods, if I add cams it can MAP for that. Never have to buy another tuner
8. the PV can read and clear ECM Codes if needed
9. For an additional fee another License can be purchased to allow the same PV to tune another bike, so no need to buy the whole unit
10. Fuel Moto customer service and support - IMO invaluable. They can talk a newbie through almost any problem and are always friendly and helpful.
