2013 roadglide ultra tune ?
I just put on vance and hines dual exaust and a arlen ness high flow air cleaner and the bike runs great no tuning. I made a appointment at the harley shop for a tune, I showed up after a few questions and he took a quick ride on my bike they told me not to waste my money on a tune be happy and ride on. is this normal i thought they were supposed to get tuned

The latest ECM might be handling the breathing changes. If it's not getting hot and pinging, the throttle is fine, and you don't notice any other weird behavior like the tech says ride on.

If you don't plan on doing any more engine mods get a micro-tuner from http://www.fuelmotousa.com/ Your bike will run MUCH better!!!

I've got a 13' RG also. Did the exhaust and breather but I added the PV with a download map from Fuelmoto and then did some fine tuning with the autotune. Although your bike may be running good, it is no doubt running on the lean side as your fuel has not been adjusted after the free flowing exhaust/breather. I would ignore what the dealership has told you and get some sort of aftermarket tuner. Your bike will thank you. Just my opinion..

Not necessarily, the 02 sensors and fuel & timing trims may take care of any issue. Keep in mind within a set of certain parameters the ECM can handle minor changes just fine. Harley seems to make year after year improvements to engine management. The new bikes run pretty damn good stock compared to the 06 & 07 bikes where a lot of tuning was / is needed.
