I'm in eastern Oklahoma. There are lots of bikes around and some great riding out here. I really have a passion for motorcycles and I think a good tuner in this area would do well because they are very few and far between.

Study Fuel Injection, get some software and playe with it. Dyno Tuning is mostly being familiar with the software you are using. Running the bike is the easy part. Read about VE tables and ignition timing etc. Most of the classes that are taught are for people that are already familiar with the software. Starting your own tuning center could go both ways, if you pick up on it quik and do good you could really make a name for yourself. but if you experiment on someone elses bike and don't give them a good job, it will definately backfire on you, then you have a 25,000 dollar dyno sitting in your garage you'll be trying to sell on E-bay for 7 grand. You say you have experience working on bikes, maybe try to find a shop that has a dyno and see if you can get in working on bikes for them, if you do express interest about learning the dyno and see if you can sit in on a couple tunes. Dyno tuning is fun, but it also gets pretty tedious and boring.
