Metro, Silver Eagle, and Hawkeye Harley are three that are close here to me.  Great people and customer service.
Down fall is, none of the three tune with TTS.  Jason at Faribault HD has good reputation in doing so and has proved it to me
with the last two motors.  Couple more hours and will be heading out for a days ride  :)

My bike has a TTS on it and I was under the impression they tuned it at Metro. The guy I bought it from did all his dealings with them.
 Long story short is when I bought the bike I bought it from a private party. He was taking my 09 as a trade and using it as a trade on his new CVO. The dealer actually did all the paper work so it saved both of us taxes. Worked out well.

 Ride safe

Jack,  Let me re-phrase that.  They may be able to tune with TTS, but not have it mastered as some others...
When I bought my Fullsac set up, Cams, header pipes and DX pipe.  Silver Eagle loaded the can tune, other than that
they had no experience in that software.  As not all of the same bikes run the same on a can tune, Jason at Faribault
tuned it to perfection.  I know when I was out at Metro 3 weeks ago getting a battery checked due to starting issues, we first check to see if the ACR's were enabled, being I have a built 120 installed.  They could check through the ECM, but not change anything due to I have the TTS.  Ended up being a battery anyway.

 Interesting. I may have to find someone close to me to redyno it. The guy I bought it from had Metro do the work I thought, so figured they had experience with the TTS. Good info. Thanks.

Corrected the rear air shock E.D. issue and bought the pencil pump.  Upped the pressure to 38lbs.  Hopefully that will stop the bottoming out.

My experience with the HD rear air shock system is that the only way to stop the bottoming is to replace it with a quality performance coil spring shock. I have used both Works Performance and Bitubos from Traxxion. I am really likely the Bitubos I put on my 15 FLTRUSE. Suggest you look at the discussion session on suspension.

Good luck,
DH

That may be the case in a bit but not right now.  I ended up taking the stock air shocks to 42 lbs.  I really can't believe how much that changed the handling.  I was really shocked to find that the dealer (or whoever) loaded it to 15lbs from the showroom.  When I saw that I thought it was a screw up.  Then I talked to a buddy that bought his 2 weeks after mine from a different dealer.  Found his was set the same.  If you read the guide that is set for like a 150lbs rider with no cargo and no passenger.  A bit of common sense would say they should be set higher than that as a base.

Simon and Haird have it right.  I think the best use for HD air shocks is as an anchor for my Jetski.  Took about 6 pounds off the bike switching to Ohlins and now it rides right and does not bottom.

I just realized that I never posted a picture after adding an air wing rack to the swinebox tourpack a while back. Well here is a picture but there is a stupid helmet strapped down to the rack in this picture. I will have to take some better pictures when I get back in from offshore.

reinstalled the front lowers w/speakers... You think I would have done that BEFORE I rode to Daytona last week. It's All Good! They go on, they go off...From lifting the bike at start and putting the tools away at finish, I have it down to 12 minute swap.
