Default Is the stage one worth it on the 103 bikes?

With catalytic converters standard on the new bikes, it would seem they'd be tuned better than bikes without converters. Anyone who's had it done - is it worth the price?

Just had mine done, however have not got to ride due to weather.. I seen the dyno sheets and there is a slight increase in power.I'm looking for heat reduction.

Son & I 4 new ones in last 4yrs....

Tuned better because of the converter,,, I highly doubt that... as good I even doubt that..

IMO I'd replace the whole system, then do a stg1 with whatever bolt-in cams U like,,,,,,, now I'd say they'll equal the < bikes.... Then add a good fuel mgt system of U liking and get a dyno tune....

YES after doing that,, its worth the $$$$$.....period...
