I have a 2009 Fat Boy. Just have about 500 miles on it and I orderd the deluxe light kit and a windshield (for the longer rides). After the first of the year I am going to put exhaust and air cleaner on it.
My questions is - Is there a benefit to going ahead and putting the tuner on now and tuning to the stock exhaust and air cleaner. Will be good practice. Also everything I can read says these run lean (and hot) from the factory. I am not unhappy with the stock performance, but hey....if it can be better let's do it. Also if it helps it run a little cooler, it has to be good for the bike in the long run. If I do go this way...what map would I put in for a stock softail?
Just looking for feedback from the guys who have experience. THANKS
I think it could only help. I'd use the same map you'd use for when you do have the stage 1 done. The V-tuning will be more important in your case, because the map will be looking for greater air-flow than what a stock setup can provide, but I think it is still the best starting point. That map is "AE176-002."

AF176 and change the cu in from 103 to 96 in Tuning Constants. It's an awesome map. All I have is an exhaust system, no AC. But the performance difference is staggering. Throttle response is explosive. The motor has low down torque that it didn't have before.
The bike is way more fun to ride now. Oh and I forgot to add that I checked mileage on the first fill up and it was 45.3mpg. I don't know how TTS does it. Cooler running, great mileage, and midrange power that is addictive.
Has anybody used the mastertune with the SE 255 Cams. If so, i'm interested in their results. I looking to install these cams myself. I'm just going to do the cams with stock 96 displacement. I dont feel like going further at this time.
Have an 07 Ultra 103 kit. Has the 255 cams. When I first got the bike it was running rough at all rpms. TTS installed and after a few runs and a Vtune it smoothed right out at all speeds.

Thanx in advance
I'm in the same boat that you are. I'm installing the 255 cams this wknd & have the pcv. I'm waiting on a map from fuel moto so hopefully sometime next week I'll get it. Seriously considering TTS if the pcv doesn't pan out with the new cam.
