Full Akrapovic Added

On a side note, thanks for the Vortex Video. Found it while looking for options to relocate my GPS and the Vortex was the best option. Another member had one so now I’m on my way.

Yes, he told me that he sold it to you. He and I ride together, even if only once a year.

Ok. Not sure what you’re trying to determine. A good example I can give was the performance of my 2009 RT. Wheb passing , anytime the RPM got up over 6K you could really feel her kicking in. With my RS it just felt weak. The full Akra took care of that issue and like I said it wasn’t something I needed or wanted to do. I’m sure something was wrong but my shop didn’t find it. Acceleration now very linear as high as you want to take it. I did dyno when finished to make sure I didn’t have any fueling issues and it tested fine. HP increase was very minor. You ne d to increase the air intake and add a fuel controller. After all of that you still won’t get very much. I’m just happy she now runs the way she’s supposed to.

I was just trying to figure out what is going on with your bike. I would think that putting on the slip-on should not cause a choking of the engine anywhere below redline. My bike with the stock exhaust behaves like yours does now with the choke point removed. In other words I accelerate through 6k all the way to redline (only a couple of times I've redlined it, mind you) and it pulls strongly and pretty linearly until it hits redline then the rev-limiter kicks in.
