Hello fellow Rocket pilots,
I had an '07 Classic that was taken out by a drunk driver, she was stock and I loved her.
I purchased a 2014 Touring model, I knew that the power wouldn't be the same but I am really disappointed with the difference. I am looking to just get it to near what the '07 had.
The dealer offers a "Sport Tune" , does anyone know what it does?
I don't want to get a do it yourself remap unless I really have to.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome from Florida,Screws go to the R3Touring forum (R3T derestriçting) thread
 
G'day and welcome.

Get TuneECU, and a cable, then ask @HansO nicely and he will give you a tune which will unleash them horsies.
 
Touring is capable of the same amount of power as the Roadster. As others have mentioned you can get the cable for $20 and upload the new tune. However I completely understand the hesitation to make such mods yourself (that's why I haven't played around with mine), and would be surprised if the dealer's tune didn't get you pretty close to what you're looking for.
 
You can drop a new tune in it and get a little bit but to really get anywhere it needs to breath better. TORS or other slip ons and a different filter system (either K&Ns or Ramair) I would think would be a minimum along with a new tune. With the deresticting tune and a dyno along with the TORS I was about 121 hp. Same bike, same tuner when I put the Ramair on it went up to the above numbers. My next step will be a header, probably a Viking and we'll see where it goes. Luckily I can use the same tuner because he comes to town a couple of times a year.

Thanks for the information, I am going to be getting the TORS for it too.
I am not looking to make it a fire breathing dragon, but after riding the '07 it is too much of a step down in power. Just want to get back a similar amount of power.
 
Hello Screws and welcome from Virginia. Good luck with that new tune, which ever one you chose.
 
Welcome. I test rode a touring a while back thinking about trading in my 05 standard :eek: What a letdown it was, I know what you mean. All the same engine so let the lads here help you get it unchained. No worries
