HD doesn't want tuners on their warrantied products, they tend to get a bit pissy when they find out and want to flag your power train warranty. Now if your dealer is cool he wouldn't tell them about it, but it kind of sounds like your dealer is a ******** because they don't know who can take care of your tuning needs and they're telling you they have been removing them.
Exactly, M3 makes a good point. My 255's were installed by my dealer and was TTS tuned using outside sources. Look at my Sig, my dealer covers anything other than an aftermarket part failure. They will try and push HD products on you, but the TTS allows you to save your factory base map. If it ever has to go back to the dealer a simple reflash installs the factory tune back into the ECM. When the work is done you simply reflash your tuned calibration back in. Something to think about and plenty of help available on these forums.

Here goes...
Trash the Cobra and get a real tuner. TTS, Power Vision but SEPro would be my last choice. Cobra doesn't stand a chance against a real flash tuner.
Got the bike back this afternoon with the 255s installed. Sounds and growls meaner, more so than my 08 with 103ci and 255s. Lots of get up and go now. It finally squats when I get on it and I can feel the end lifting and getting light if you know what I mean. Now I get to autotune all over again.
Does anyone have a stage 2 map from Power Vision so I can compare where I am with my tune? Would sure like to see what you guys have for VEs in the 1750 - 3500 area.
Thanks for all the replies,the more confusion the more I study things.Thinking skinning the cat,slipon with 2" baffle,and a powervision.I'm still studying it before I decide.Keep info coming , it is great.
If you end up going with the Powervision talk to Fuelmoto, they can get you a base map which will get you in the ballpark so you can finish touch it up on your own.

VE's can be quite a bit different between bikes depending on the combination of cam, air cleaner, and exhaust.
