I was told the same info Jamie has provided on this site already.

think you can get power commander 5, get bike tuned, than switch the map to power vision. sell the power commander,lose some money but will be able to keep pv,maybe not lose as much money.

If I had a local person to tune with it (that I trust) then I'd keep it.
Try calling Doc over at HDMD tuning center. He is one of the best. Iknow he would rather tune with a TTS, but he maybe able to use the power vision and get you a dead on tune.

Unfortunately, there's not much value in a used Powervision or SE Race Tuner, since most guys who buy them want them to tune their bikes.

I'm surprised Doc won't tune with the PV.

Have you contacted Docs Performance Tuning, up near Orlando? Honestly, if I were still living in Fla, there's nobody else I'd even consider to tune my bike, and I'd be surprised if he couldn't tune with a Powervision.
Yes brother, I have spoken to Doc in length about what I want to do to my bike. He will NOT tune with the PV as stated above.

Not to go off on a tangent, but I am really close to investing in a PV - just ironing out some details. Have these tuners given you a reason WHY they don't use the PV?

Yeah, I had posted that up before I read your other response. Then went back and edited while you were responding to my other post. lol

Maybe you should consider one who uses Dyno-jet products then, for a tuner?
I really like my PC-V and it works well if you can find a tuner that knows how to tune with it...

Personally I think that very few know how to tune w/a SERT and that includes the dealerships.. 4-5 hours for a tune? BS!!
They are inept or their SERT SEPST Program is, if it takes 4-5 hours of dyno time to build a map..

OTOH, do you want to constantly tinker with A TTS, riding around w/a laptop in your saddlebag and then adjusting here and or there?
Not me, not that interested..

I am interested in the Rev Perf though, but I have heard that a few have to take it off, send it back for adjustments and put it back on too.. mind you a few...

In the interim, I will just stick with the PC-V.
