I would say a 2-1 vs a 2-2 will make a little change to it. Ride it and see how it feels

I went from V&H Big Radius to Rinehart Cross Backs. The bike actually ran better with the Cross Backs on the same "dyno tune" for the Big Radius. Try it first before you spend a few hundred dollars chasing a couple of horses.

I understand where you are coming from. I was just saying that I would ride it first before you make a decision to re-tune. You might find that your current tuneup works great.
