No it wasn't mine. Here is before and after. I will also show another that is the difference between a download vs a tune. These sheets only show wot. The big difference is how much better the bike runs where you actually ride it. Anyone that has never ridden a properly tuned bike doesn't know what they are missing.

How many People ride WOT all the time. I'm not saying a Tuner and dyno won't get you more performance, but how much is more important to some than other's. I've been that route before and don't want to again. If getting to the grocery store a few seconds faster is what you want then spend 3 to 1000.00 for a Tuner and another 5 to 600.00 for a Dyno. Then spend all your time fighting it to keep it that way. I'd rather run mine stock and not worry with it. JMO

I just purchased the SEST and am having my bike dyno'd next week. I had a pair of V&H BSS and a SE Heavy Breather put on recently. This is some good info. 
Hope you all don't mind a Softail following along in here...

Think you're missing the point. Dyno charts only show wot runs but a good dyno tune gives improvements everywhere.

He is. People need to forget dyno charts for a moment and think about rideability. There's no comparison between a stock bike and a tuned one, but people will continue to think that there's a simple solution to getting their bike right.

You guy's are missing the point I'm trying to make. You can buy a stock bike and leave it that way. It will run and ride fine. If you want more, you have to spend money for it. Some do, some don't! If I had it to do over, I would leave it completely stock, buy an extended warranty with the extra money and just ride the **** out of it. JMO
