I absolutely agree however if the AFR is shown to be way off on this 107 build, it could be an explanation for the lower than expected performance numbers. If the AFR looks smooth through the rpms at around 13.2 then I would say he needs to be looking at exhaust, timing or both.
If the AFR is a mess and showing multiple lean and overly rich conditions than I would suggest he simply has the result of a poor tuning effort and should consider starting over, possibly with a different shop.

If he had any tuning at all, he will likely find his afr in the ballpark.
I've seen timing changes do a lot in the past, but that's not always the case.
I must add, that I am not familiar enough with that particular cam to even know if his numbers are low or not. LOL
That might be the norm for that cam?

True duals a cool and all, and they don't "cost" you too many ponies on an average build. But this is a little more than a traditional mild build and I just "don't get" putting all that money and effort into a build and then giving away ponies for a less than optimal set of pipes.
It just don't make sense to me.
If you are willing to settle cuz you like the pipes, why not stay with a milder less expensive build?
The results wouldn't be that much different.

I have seen them "in person" and I was very impressed.
You'd never know they were fake just by looking at the bike.
Goes all the way up to the "Y". Check them out.
(Your excuse is officially "history" now). Get shopping! LOL
