The link Jack gave is a great resource, definitely want to go thru that info.

There are also a huge number of youtubes that can help. Here are the first two to watch-

On my 16, I just bought a PV license & dealer set it up. Nothing hanging on the trike. Ran great.

That is definitely an option. However, to be clear, those that have the actual Power Vision device do not need to leave it on the Trike.

Once you have the tune loaded into the ECM (like you dealer did) then you can remove the PV and store it til the next time (if ever) that you want to change your tune.

Many of us like to leave it hanging on the Trike so that we can monitor vital functions, but that is not necessary.

For myself...

After having my PV on the handlebar, I'm lost with out it. Others do not like the clutter and I understand that. I have gear selection, mileage, Engine Temperature, Trip miles. the most important one is the Engine Temp. When I was having issues with it (which was my own doing as it turned out) I was lost if you have your own Power Vision you can change tunes when you want or need to when you change exhaust or Intakes on the trike, or just good tune better already in use. Anything happens to your tune you have it backed up on the PV. A PV is so much more than just a tuner it for me is information central for our trike.

It's your trike your decision it is all what your expectations are of a tuner, I believe Power Vision by DynoJet is one of the best for the cost. Good luck on your choice. Travel safe Fred

You definitely have make sure you have the right tune. I didn't realize that they gave me the wrong tune. I received a free-wheeler tune instead of triglide. Being new to Power Vision I did not know. But did know that my bike shouldn't be at 374 degrees, when my screamin eagle pro race tune was down at 200 degrees. It really blued out my pipes from the heat. Luckily I didn't run it long or probably I would need a new engine.

I’ve not payed attention to the power vision threads before because I thought you had to leave it on there, I’m way more interested now that I found out you don’t have to leave it. Do you just hook it up and download the tune then remove the monitor?, thought I would get a fuel pack but now I may do this. Chime in on how it works without having to leave it out

If you download a map from FuelMoto, make sure you get the map for the M-8. When I bought my Power Vision, I downloaded a map hat was designated TC which I thought was Twin Cooled but it was actually for a Twin Cam. So I was out riding on a Saturday and pulled up top a light. While waiting for the light to change. I felt something warm on my right foot and looked down and saw all the anti-freeze/coolant running down my foot onto the pavement. Took it to a dealer that was just a couple miles from where I was and they kept it for about four days, when I picked it up the told me that it had a twin cam map loaded which prevented the fans from running. Also they flagged my bike with Harley which canceled my warranty. I found this out about 18 months later when I was going to have the vent installed on the primary.

Yes just hook up when want to download a tune then remove. It better if left it hooked up for a little while and auto tune your downloaded tune to your driving..

Yes you don't have to leave it on, hook it up and download the map they gave you and then take it off. My 2016 I had a improved stock tune from fuel moto where I bought the power vision, it ran really good with the tune they gave me, I was happy but I never did run auto tune, I was happy with what they gave me, guess I should have did auto tune and then more than likely it would have run better, not sure but alas I got rid of trike and let it go with the bike which I regret now.I know some people leave it hooked up and have it on handlebars so they can see what is going on with their bike.

What does the auto tune feature do, is it better or worse than the tune they load on there for you?

Lets see if I can explain this until someone that knows more than I do as I said I was happy with the tune they sent. Ok auto tune means you drive the trike with the map that is loaded on and you drive like you normally would, fast, slow, fast starts, running thru the gears, just normal riding on how you ride, the power vision collects data on how you do it and then you upload that auto tune to your bike, then you have a better tune than you had, I know some people are happy with the tune that is sent to them as I was. With a power vision tuner they will get you a map for what you have did to your trike, exhaust, air cleaner, cam etc etc, it is better all around than fuelpak not knocking fuelpak quite a few like it. I was happy with the improved stock tune they sent me.

Hopefully Jack or Kevin will chime in on this since they know power vision and how it works or someone that has did it.

The auto tune feature let's you create a new custom tune to your trike for the way you operate as well as the roads you travel. Old Shiney have gone down the auto tune road several times. As a matter of fact we are going to be doing it again soon. I loaded updated software just to be sure I will take about 75 mile ride for a tune update. It's not difficult and keeps your knowledge of how to use the software and tuner. Travel safe Fred

So is it safe to assume that the Power Vision tuner will not void the warranty. I have a 2020 TG with only 1800 miles so far so warranty is a concern for me. I had the V&H fuel pack on my Dyna and liked having a tuner when I made upgrades to the bike. With the TG I'd like to upgrade the air cleaner and other things but know that I'll need a tuner for it.

it will void your warranty

That's what I was afraid of.

Sad but true our 09 warranty was gone when we adopted it ride safe Fred

Same with my '10. I've never had to worry about voiding my warranty.

I don't think I will ever get another trike. I'm going to ride the 09' till I croak off. Fred

Colleydog, having tuned my previous bikes with a PV or TTS, I will say it is an interesting experience. Having a 20 tri myself, you can use a PV to monitor your bike without marrying it to the bike/ecm. I have run several logs on my bike just to see what is going on. Don’t know how much of a tech you are, to view logs you can download Megalog Viewer HD, get the pro version for a few bucks, it’s worth it. Also download WinPV, from the DynoJet website, free. Eventually I will get a new license from Fuel Moto and work on this bike/tune. Jamie from FM sent me a stock improved tune for the 20’s with the rdrs. They also provide unlimited tech support for the life of your PV, and are great to work with. DK Customs are also great to work with. I just can’t seem to find a decent way to mount it o the 20 with stock bars, lol. One other thought, if you get a new PV, and marry it to your current bike, but do not flash a new tune, I wonder if that will show up on the HD tech thing, maybe someone with more knowledge could answer that.

 

[Colleydog]

My bike is a 18 and already out of warranty so it doesn’t bother me to get a tuner, have been looking at the power vision, they are 399 on fuelmoto and 549 on dk customs, what don’t know is if there is a difference between the 2, don’t mind to pay more if I get something different, but don’t want to pay more for the same product. Maybe Kevin or someone the knows will chime in and tell me if there is a difference.

Power vision fl-blk can

includes free fuel moto handlebar mount & dynojet quick release visor kit

free pre-programming of your power vision, fuel moto technical support, and double warranty.

 

[Colleydog]

As far as I can tell, both companies come with that, don’t know why I wouldn’t buy from fuel moto, even though I love Kevin and DK Custom

 

[Wmitz]

I would go with FM. When I had my 15 RG, street tuned, I would get a pop at 1700/1800 rpm only with the throttle closed and decelerating. We tried a few thing, finally figured out that HD cuts the fuel to the injectors during decel above 1800 and one you go below 1800 the fuel is turned back on and hence the pop. They redid my map and turned the fuel cutoff off and all was good. Might of been the parts combination, but they didn’t hesitate to work with me.

Legendary good service.

When I thought I had issues

When I caused myself issues with my Powervision monitor and that was all it was my problem. I worked with Fuel Moto, Kevin (DK) and DynoJet in Nevada. All of these organizations treated me like I was the only customer they had. As it turned out it was the old wiring on the trike's accessory circuit and or plug corrosion. Regardless the service was top notch the PV has been on many different bikes/trikes all over and it works just fine. Just to add Kevin even ran it for a few days on his trike just to make sure it was fine. So I don't think you can go wrong which ever way you go, just my opinion. Of course that's like well you know. Ride safe Fred
