Your bike will make good numbers in the cold for sure. I had mine dynoed in the cold. Sure doesn't run as crisp or well in the heat.
I suspect if it was tuned in the heat it would run better in the heat. But any air cooled motor is going to lose some performance in hot weather...

I've heard that it should be tuned on a dyno between 60 and 80 degrees. that way the engine will be fully warmed up, but not overly hot to where damage could be done. If you just want a dyno sheet for your bike make sure you trust the operator and follow his suggestions.
