Olyrider do you happen to have the tune file you are running on your bike?
A tune is cheaper than a PC-V. My tune was $375 . They made the tune to fit every mod on the motor. Money well spent.

I actually already have the PC-V not sure if that makes any difference. Also would it be alright if I rode as is for now and take the bike in to get tuned later this year?

It’s perfectly safe if you have one of the Dynojet files loaded- they just target 13.2 across the board.
Ideal? No. Safe yes.

I’m curious as to what you are getting for mileage as well?

A little off subject, but I once rented an H-D Street Glide that popped so bad on decel that I had to modify the way I rode and never let it decel. When I dropped it off, I told the gal behind the counter that the popping was very annoying. She looked surprised and said that was her favorite aspect of the bike! Just goes to show....

I pay zero attention to mileage.
Which is funny- because I hate the task of filling a motorcycle- taking off the gloves, getting the wallet out, etc.. PITA.

+1 on that task.
To reduce bike fill ups I fill 3 or 4 cans for the bike when I fill the van or car up.

Speaking of mileage; my blinking segment comes on way too soon. I'm used to filling right away, and can get only 2.8 gals into the tank. Is there any way to recalibrate that thing? I could note mileage and all that, but.... I want the segment to start blinking when I can get 3.5 or so in.
RE: Nasty Decel Pop poor gas mileage - the Ferret - 06-30-2021
No way to recalibrate I know of but 3.5 or so would only leave you with less than 1/2 a gallon. That's cutting it pretty close depending on what part of the country you ride in.
