I realize tuners recommend the device they are most comfortable working with, but you may have an indy shop or another dealer within a reasonable distance that will accommodate what you have.
I wanted a Harley dealer ONLY for bike warranty purposes.

My opinion!
  • Why would you get cams installed at the dealer??? Bike Warranty
  • Or just look on here for the thread to do the cams yourself: It's like changing my oil. I can do it. I just don't want to.
  • But you HAVE to get a tune for that thing to run right with a cam install: I just need the map to get the bike running. Then I'll take it to a tuner.

Have you contacted dyno jet directly? Maybe they can steer you in the right direction. They have a list of facilities in your area that support their products.

I think you're "over worried" about warranty. Even with the dealer installing your cams, I believe that all SE stuff is "for off-road and racing use only", meaning that it's a non-warrantied item. Your individual dealer may honor some sort of in-house warranty, but I don't believe the moco will. And if they'd harrass you over the warranty, they'd also harrass you about using a PC vs. a SEPST.

just get a close map and you can add auto tune to the pcv, this is what I did and my bike is running better every time I take it out.

Any updates? I'd like to see what your bike did on the dyno after the cams...
