That really depends on if you are done with engine mods...if for sure yes, buy the licence and have it dyno tuned

That would depend on who owns the PV you will be using.... it would suck to buy the license, and then not have any access to change it down the road

I bought a PV for my '12 limited, bought a second license for my '03 heritage, and my friend is thinking of getting a license so he can download a tune on his Harley.

We have been friends for 25+ years, so he'll always have access to tune his bike any time he wants....

If your going to do this...do it with the dyno tuners tuner. That way if you need any changes he will have everything you need

The PV is not just about getting a fuel map flashed to your bike, it is about getting a fuel map that is normally "in the ballpark" and then Autotuning it and maybe some other manual adjusting and after that you can continue to work on your spark tables to keep improving your tune. If you go in with somebody else, I hope you live close and are pretty good friends because you will want to use the PV a fair amount to polish up your tune.

How did you know he is my tuner...I've sent a lot of people to him and haven't seen anything but smiles.

How do you know of him with you living in Arizona?

I leave mine on the bike bars, and like the fact I can see any and all vital signs as I ride.

It depends on if that is worth the extra $300 to you or not.

buy a PV from fuel moto and get maps for whatever you do.

ps you can also read codes, adjust speedo, and lots of other things with it, a good tool to have in your toolbox
