backcountry: The honest short answer is NO.
Autotune is a great tuning device. I look at it like an EGT or an A/F gauge more or less. You can not just plug everything in and go riding and have it build you a map. You sit down and create a good basemap, test it, revise it, test it, revise it, test it, revise it, then hook the auto tune up and FINE TUNE it. It looks at your recommended air fuel ratios and your base map and makes adjustments as it sees you need them. THEN..... I go back and rewrite the bottom end of the map, save it and run it.
The reason I rewrite the bottom end is that with autotune it asks for more fuel than you need. For example on auto tune I do a short burst throttle practice that allows me to make sure I have no bogs. Cruising along and SLAM the flipper to the bars. ...... When you do this, autotune looks at the fuel and at that rapid an accelleration, calls for a lot of fuel.
For example with autotune I usually get my 3500-4000 fuel numbers somewhere in the 30s.
The numbers acutally need to be in the 6-10 range to be correct. Also at an idle it seems to want to idle high under autotune, which is probably because at lower rpms I like to call for 15-16:1 air fuel ratios, which are lean.
Autotune is a great tool if you are switching between sleds and setups often or like myself, trying to tune for various setups and pipe configurations. Once you are happy with your map, the autotune becomes usless in everyday riding conditions.
Hope this helps, I feel like I took the long way around!
