Default Power Commander V map help

Hello,
I have a 2013 FLHX with decatted head pipe, arlen ness stage 1 and V&H twin slash oval slip ons. I picked up a used pcv and I am looking for a good tune. I went on the pc website and cant seem to find a map that has my parameters. I got a map from fuel moto and the bike seems to run great but it pings when you get on it. Any help from somebody running a similar setup would be appreciated
thanks

Can you post a screen shot of the timing and fuel table? I can help eliminate the ping if you have the ability to alter the tune. Also a picture of the spark plugs will help. Please mark the plugs so we can identify the front and rear cylinder.

Here is a map that should work for you. Make sure the O2's are unhooked and no jumper needed on 13 touring.

Thanks for the map, I installed it tonight and still had some pinging. I ended up using 15-001-059 and it seems to be running good no pinging, no popping or backfiring and good throttle response. I took it for a 15 mile run and came back home and it seemed to be running warm I checked the cyl temp with inferred gun and the temp was 290, is that to hot? Is there anything I should be aware of or looking for to make sure the tune is correct.

That map had a lot of timing in it, no wonder it pinged. I've had pinging even in the upper RPM ranges with 3-4 degrees of timing.

That wasn't 15-011-059 was it. Can't find an 001. Were was it pinging? Not sure how hot 290 is with a heat gun. I have always used Sensor in head with Power Vision to tell how hot it is and 290 is not a big deal after idling or driving slow for few minutes. Cruising at 60 290 is hot. That is about the temp that Eitms kicks in at idle. I would suspect over 300 may be hot. Incidentally I ran that map for 2 years on a 2010 Limited with no pinging. It has also been run on a 13 RG and a 2010 Ultra. It may be a little lean in the area you are referring too. If you want another map send me a PM with your email address. Won't send another map on forum as there are too many experts to pick them apart.
