Default 117" done- need a map?

Just finished up my build... RevPerf 117" cyl, ported 110 heads, 58mm throttle body, lightened/ balanced crank. I could go on and on, but what I am not sure about is this:

I bought the SEPro tuner kit to get me started with a base tune. I read that you can upload a custom map other than the maps that come with the software. Being that my motor is not just parts bought from harley, would it be better to ask one of you for a map that might be similar to my setup? Or, should I try to tune it on my own? I have not used the tuner yet, but I am trying to learn as much as I can from the training dvd. Any suggestions?

Get a Dyno to get the best results out of your build.

I definitely plan to. I just wanted to upload something so I can run it safely to break it in before I drop the $ on the dyno.

Do yourself a favor and put the bike on a trailer and take it to a reputable tuner and have them break it in on the dyno where they can monitor operating conditions. It doesn't take much to hurt a fresh build with either a too rich or lean tune.
