Default What tune are you running on your PV?

Been running the tune Fuel Moto preloaded lately but switched to Dynojet's tune. I've noticed DJs seems to run smoother but FMs had better rollon power. Tempted to play with the auto tune feature. What tunes or other tricks have you found that work with your setup?

What's the general feeling about tuners vs actual Dyno tuning? I rode a buddy's 2012 48 that had been dynoed with the HD street tuner. It ran much smoother, both vibration wise and power band wise, than my 2014 48. Making me consider Dyno tuning mine as well.

I have a buddy with a shop/dyno, I'm running a slightly tweaked version of a fuel moto map to suit Australian fuels and hotter temps but it's much the same. Spent plenty of time dialing in the VE's.

Long story short, run it up on the dyno, and my buddy said he would just be stealing my $$$ for a full tune, not much he could really improve on that he could see. We did play around with adding a bit more fuel actually as the O2 sensor in my pipes detected a small lean spot about 80% load.

This was with the usual stage one stuff

I then went to install a Hammer Performance Cam kit, auto tune did an OK job but the timing maps used was only a guess from Jamie but isn't too bad.

We spent considerable time tweaking the spark for this map and now it flat out rips!

If it's the usual stage one stuff, I would be pretty confident in the Autotune doing a decent enough job, say 90% of a full on custom tune, which over here cost huge $$$.
