SERT is no longer avail. I've had both the SERT and power commander. PC you can play with yourself, make changes when you want. SERT is dyno by dealer only. The new version is the SEST, again any changes involve dyno time. Get a power commander.

This is not true. The race tuner has a smart tune function that does not require a dyno. It requires a computer along with the program. You can make changes and play around with it as you please. However if you did want to have it dyno'd, it does not have to be at the dealer. Any indy with a dyno can do it

My SEPRT is fully programmable. Just buy the software and cable, hook it up to the PC and make any changes I want. Didn't know they were no longer available. EPA don't like them and the label says "off road only", but as of a couple of months ago, you could still buy them.

Sounds to me like you believed the dealer when he lied and told you only they could tune a SERT.

pillows, the PCIII is a less expensive option.
Any competent indy or dealer can tune either of those units.
Fuel Motto has a great customer service record, imo only.
A SERT is a little more fussy and therefore a little more expensive to tune.
I should have kept my PCIII but chose the SERT as it was a deal that cost me lots more in dyno time and I have a basic 95'' with se 203 cams.
Your mileage may/will vary.

Once tuned you shouldnt have to mess with either one. The SERT is a more capable unit. If you want a close tune and cheaper, go whith the PC. If you want every aspect of the tune dialed in then spend a bit more and hire a competent dyno tech and get a TTS.
As CndUltra95 stated here, I depends on what you want out of your bike.

I sent my SERT in to TTS Master Tune for an upgrade $100 plus shipping. I did it because I wanted to adjust my speedo for the 68 tooth rear spocket but the tuner at the dealer has worked with them and there are alot of added adjustments available. He tweeked the tune based on my prior map (dyno tune) current setup and maps they have for our altitude, etc. and no dyno was needed.
