Tuning
Replaced my totaled FXD with 2013 FLH Classic.
Was going to put K&N air filter on but told by dealer I would need to retune the engine. Anyone know if this is true? Harley makes EFI engines for anywhere in the country. Denver to Miami with considerable air difference between the two. Wouldn't the on board controller automatically adjust?
Why would a retune be necessary on a computer controlled engine?
Anyone have any thoughts to share?
This is a new one for mr!

Thanks!
Thought that was up and over the top!
Never heard that before!
First time I ever bought a new bike and all the gadgetry is over the top for me.
Still don't know why EFI is needed. Tanks above the engine. Gravity, last time I checked, still flows down. Turn on gas, gas flows down, engine gets fuel, simple. Made sense to me for many years.

Want it to actually step up to what it can do? Call fuel Moto get a power vision. If you can deal with computers or smart phones you can instal the tune they send. The bike will make a huge change for the better. The dealer may have been after a buck but he was helping you make it run!
