One of the dyno tune runs Urban Custom Bikes pulled in the process to tune my ride. The video was taken through the glass window of the dyno booth which had its doors closed.

Correct. Going with the 2 into 1 for maximum results. Nothing against the MGS pipes. I actually took a small loss (3hp/tq) and kept them on my bike cause they sounded MUCH better than my old system. I had the loud baffles btw.

As I thought, no luck on the "before" numbers. Sorry...

My seat-of-the-pants meter is much happier after the tune. Pinging? Gone. Smoother idle and power? Yup. Decel pop? Gone. Mileage gooder? We'll see when this tank runs out, but leaning out the cruise range AFRs to 13.8 should do the trick.
