If it were mine, I would strip it down to stock and see if it runs. If its still running poorly, replace the ECM with a new one. If that straightens it out and you now have a clean slate....well there's a couple ways you can go, but getting it to that point should be the main focus. I just don't feel confident a dealership is were I would have the bike......different thread.

Having had a Power Commander of some sort or another on every bike I have ever had, including my Ultra Limited, I just dont see how a Power Commander could cause any of these issues. It really takes some serious effort to burn out a tuner to my experience. I would seriously consider another dealer or a private shop to look at the bike. You can find many Harley and indy shops that support and love the Power Commanders and I think you just found one that will blame the issues on something that is generally not an issue.
