Exactly what Old h said , the dealer download just keeps the AFR around 14.7-1. If they make them for your bike, go with the XIED, much better than a dealer download.

Your dealer is correct, also the mufflers will get louder with some miles on 'em. Keep it legal and keep it warrantable makes sense,
