Default Dyno question

I'm sure this has been asked before but please indulge me. How important is getting my bike dyno'd with a custom map? I have a little over 1000mi. on it now and cant get to the stealer till mid June. When I did the 1000mi service I checked the plugs and from what understand they look like they are burning fine for a EFI motor. Bike runs good with no popping on decel. When I purchased the bike they installed theAC, SERT, and pipes and evidently a canned map, not sure on what kinda download. Its an 07 model and sure seems to run hot, espescially on an 85 degree day. I will be taking it in for the dyno but not until June. Question is, do I need to limit my miles of riding until I can get it in or should I just ride it like I have been until I can get it in?Thanks for your input.

from what I have been reading, it sounds like the '07's are running hot, so what you are experiencing may not be to unusual.
If they installed a SERT with a canned map for your build, you are probably OK. If the plugs looked good, and you aren't getting any snap/crackle/pop, I'd say you are OK.
