Power Vision question

I have a 2011 Limited with a factory head pipe without the cat and 4" Rhinehart slip ons, a big sucker ac, stage one download and Xieds. The bike runs good with no pinging to be heard of.
I am looking at getting a Power Vision from Fuel Moto, Jamie gave a price for the unit along with the Tech Mount for the handlebars.
I said my bike currently runs good but have to wonder is the bike capable of more with the power vision and the map Jamie would make based on my current system?
I am not a hard rider but I do like to roll on the throttle every now and then.
For those that have used the power vision, do you think I could better spend the coin elsewhere or this is a good investment?
I do plan true duals one day and maybe some cams.

Its a decent price for a tuning device, even if you pay to get a tune (SE tuner is about the same price), and it gives you the ability to do your own tuning runs, see all kinds of real-time stats about the bike etc.

currently the power vision is on top (internet opinions), they do take turns when the software is improved to include something that no one else has.

Sounds like your bike is already running pretty good as a stage 1, I say save your money unless you're planning on future mods (I have a PV but never did the stage 1 download).

+1 PV, as you sound like an exhaust mod and possible cams my be ahead.
Fuelmoto could be a source for those mods, and you'd be dialed in.

When I got my PowerVision, I had a '12 Limited with 255 cams, air cleaner, & slip-ons installed by my dealer. The map Jaime sent me ran noticeably better than the Harley download for stage I plus the 255 cams.

Additional benefits: You will be able to remove the Xieds because Jaime's tune will not need them, you will be just a request away from a free, new map from Jaime if you do further mods, and you can do a few datalog/tune runs with the PV to further dial in the map to your bike.

A special plus: If, like me, you find yourself owning two Harleys (or just want to help a good friend get a good tune), you can get an additional license for $200 that will allow the PV to also work with the other bike.

This is a cool little unit and well worth the money, especially if you buy from FuelMoto and factor in their incredible support.... IMHO
