Thanks brother glad it worked well for you. I can't take a lot of credit since the base for this tune was given to me by one of the knowledgeable members here, and guidance along the way as I made changes. However I did just start my own tune file set which uses a revised set of VE's and open loop AFR table. I'm running that now and pretty happy with it. if you wanna try it out shoot me a email. Only thing I did not like in V10 was hotter ET's at idle / cruise with the summer weather, and some knock when getting hard on it. this new map has corrected all of that.

Be sure to log your runs and look for any knock events especially at heavier throttle pulls from 2nd, 3rd, 4th. If you have not done this before, save the log from PV2 to your PC though WinPV, open the log file in excel - click the cell that says "spark knock R", then do a "sort Z-A" and "yes" to expand selection. this will bring any larger knock events to the top for review and keep things like map, rpm in line so you can see where it is occurring. Do the same for "Spark Knock F" I wouldn't worry about anything 2 or less.

Well I ditched the rear license plate bracket and got something a little simpler setup. I think it turned out pretty good.

Are you required to have the lic plate directly attached on the fender in BC?

Nope, but we're required to have them horizontally mounted, and as you can see we have massive plates here, so they ruin the symmetry of the bike and look really out of place when side-mounted.

makes sense- so for staying within the 'letter of the law' that's a pretty good setup. we have the same laws here but it's extremely rare for PD to pull someone over just for a vertical mounted side plate.
