Just got a 07 st.glide put a Thunder maxwith auto tune on it also a Wimmer Big Sucker air intake with V& H slip on's.the T M, cost $829 msrp air intake $550 pipes $400 now U say the 08's will auto tune to any add on?? Had a problem ,sometimes it would rev to 25-3000 for no reason (not safe ) while trying to stop 4 a light. took it back to Wimmer Custom Cycle (who makes the Air intakes ) found the heat sensor wire was loose and every time I hit a bump it would give a false reading ,ie: engine cold -or hot therfore high revs back to normal ,he fixed it .But this is right out of the showroom ,so if I crashed and burned they would have said going to fast for conditions they dont check out bike crashes like airplane crashes so , what does any one think of the mods I did so far ?? this is my 1st. bagger and I love it also looking for tweeters to put in the spot where the air temp & oil ,dials are .any one have a link for speakers for the bike ?

I have an 06 and when I changed my pipes and AC I went to the stealer to get an ecm flash. They told me they didn't have any luck with HD's flash. They recommended a PCIII. Go figure. Why are you guys so worried about the warranty? Have you ever heard of anybody's EFI tuner trashing an engine? No, I didn't think so. Wouldn't HD have to prove the tuner caused the problem anyway? You guys worry too much. Just get out there and fkn ride!

The fact that with the PCIII my bike takes a bit longer to start doesn't bother me. The fact that I often have an unpredictable stumble when coming off the line from idle DOES BOTHER ME. This thread was started with the best of intentions to inform fellow owners of an inferior product. Some of us like chocolate and some like vanilla. But if I'm a chocolate lover and I find out it has salmonella, I think I'd become a vanilla supporter until they can prove to me the chocolate has been fixed. Bottom line, PCIII has a know problem with their product and they are not falling over backwards trying to fix it. I bought the PCIII but now I have top shell out the extra $ for either a flash or a SERT. IMO, a smart person, after reading these threads would be buying a SERT.

Jeff, you are exactly right. The decision to cover or not cover a part by the dealer can vary. Just keep in mind that the overall factor is who is paying for the claim. The MOCO ultimately decides whether they will pay a claim or deny. If denied the dealer will cover all costs'. Some dealers will not take that chance. The MOCO precisely spells out that this is not a coverd part, however they do not ask when the claim is submitted. If that info is requested the dealer must submit the truth. That could lead to a denied claim. Some dealers know how to work the system, and the MOCO knows this and will get you through it. Beware if on the road and a dealer starts making remarks. Take it elsewhere, one phone call is all it takes for a "red flag."
