That's about average peak #'s for a 110''er with good pipes... Except for the dip between 2-3 K rpm's... which is where You'll be at most of the time...... Somebody didn't do a good tune for you.....

Depends on which Bassani RR he is running, some are better than others, even Kurt at Bassani warned me and now I am planning on new pipes....

Guy doing the tune said something similar about Bassani pipes. Would have preferred knowing that before I spent all the money. Oh well I know where the the power band is, doesn't take long to get there. Not like I'm out racing it. It does make a wonderful growl too.
It's the short Megaphone pipe. Is there anything that can be done? The guy doing the tune has a pretty good reputation working with the SE tuner.

I believe your RRs have stepped headers, so that is good(mine don't). If you are running the Performance baffle, a switch to the Quiet baffle may help the low end a touch but probably not worth the effort. It is pretty much impossible to have a short pipe produce a great dyno chart, really just have to buy a longer performance pipe and sell your short Bassanis. The Bassanis look and sound great, so should be able to recoup a lot of the co$t.

Not sure but I'm going to find out if they're stepped. Yes on the performance baffle. I should have done more research on the short/long differences. I appreciate the education.
I'm going to live with this one for a while I think. The low end performance isn't a huge concern for now. Plus I really dig the way it pulls just past 3k. Took it for a nice long ride today on a very lonely divided highway with lots of visibility. Still grinning ear to ear.
I did get a good deal on the pipe. $551 to the door from IndySuperBike.
Again, thanks for the information.
That's a yes on them being stepped.
