I have a 2021 street bob with the 114, anyone know why I can’t use the 2020 tune for a let’s say low rider S that also has a 114? Sorry if it’s a dumb question I am new to motorcycles.

 

its a completely different ECM, from what I understand the maps different and have to be approved by the state.

 

New ECM. New plug. Same California 🐂💩

 

You're in California, do like I did and ride the **** out of it stock. When you're comfortable that the drivetrain doesn't have any issues (I put 5k on mine) then do your mods. If you're really concerned about the warranty I would recomend sticking with what the dealer has to offer, even if it takes a while.

 

Well we’ve made it to September with no Tunes and no news of when they might be coming.

 

Are you riding the **** out of it? Are you racking up some miles on it?

 

2000 miles 95% canyons

 

That's the important part. Enjoy the bike and give things a little time.

 

So, right now, the only 2021 models in California that have approved tunes are Stage-2 for the Trikes and 107 Touring models. I just called Laidlaw's and San Diego (the biggest HD dealer in California) and got similar responses: "We kept hearing the end of the month... and that was every month. Now we're hearing (and this isn't official) not to expect 2021 tunes this year at all." And they both were angry as hell because they've got 2021 owners lined up to do Stage-4 and they can't sell or install the parts. They also made it clear that HD is not the issue... there's somebody in Sacramento sitting on these for some unknown reason and that's the holdup. With resale values of Harleys through the roof, it might be cheaper and less frustrating for 107 owners to trade up to a 114 model... or 114 to go CVO for that matter.

 

I just returned from Sturgis (CA to SD) on my 21' RGS and every major vendor said Jan 22' at best. I was also told they have the tunes figured out, but they are all waiting on CA to let **** happen. Unfortunately, I have a D&D sitting in my garage waiting as well.
