I’m in Canada too and bought mine from fuel moto. I used to have it mounted on the bars for live readout and even things like temperature and live fuel mileage can be displayed. I can’t use it my 2021 bike since it won’t work with the new ecm and even if it did, my warranty would be void.

That's a drag, perhaps in the future they'll update the firmware to work with your new ride. When that happens I think you could use it as an extra set of gauges like you did before I don't think it will flag yer ecm unless you flash a tune, then when warranty is up you could purchase a new license and flash away. but I'm not sure, this is just speculation

So how was fuelmoto to deal with? Screaming Beagle said they were great.. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna order one from them tomorrow but I assume it's gonna take a little while to get here. Sooooo in the mean time I was thinking of Just maxing out my VE tables on the street tuner I think that would richen things up a bit but I'm not sure. what do you think?

Pulled the trigger on a Power Vision from Fuel Moto today
I tried maxing out both of my Street Tuner VE tables and it helped a little bit with the heat but not enough and still decel popping like crazy so Power Vision it is.

Congrats on the PV.. You won't be disappointed. I went to one this spring, I got it from Fuel Moto and my bike is running very well.. No heat issues and I went with headwork, compression and cams.. Here's a link to a thread I started on tuning if it helps...

Take your time, watch the videos. For street tuning best if you mount the PV as high on the bars as you can, so that you can see the screen without moving your head around too much. I use longer sessions, to me it helps bring down the # of tuning runs. I am retuning my trike, it took me 3 runs to get the ve’s within 4%.

I’d take a different approach. Your exhaust is an unknown configuration. So, I’d get an unaltered exhaust, that/someone like Fuel Moto can give you a pretty close baseline map.

Keep in mind that No matter who supply's a tune you will still need to auto tune and even adjust the timing tables..
