I watched as you suggested, but then re-watched from the beginning so as to appreciate the changes during different aspects of the ride. Helpfully, he re-rides the same route and isn't afraid to wring the F out of it so it was enjoyable regardless. Smile

Holy balls. Very interested now. Noted he said the tune kept the flapper open, and now I'm concerned a full de-CAT'd aftermarket exhaust would be too much with that, noise-wise.

I'd think so too, but then you'd think Dynojet would update their product info to reflect that? Hmm, I just revisited their website and when using the drop-downs to select what year bike you have, it maxes out at 2020. So... maybe?. On BT's stage 2 page it says "This stack kit will work on any BMW motorcycle with part number: 13718567190 for its airbox". Checking https://www.shopbmwmotorcycles.com/oem-p...3718567190 we see this airbox is only for Shift Cams. So... maybe not?

As I see it, what Berlin giveth, Euro 5 taketh away. Tuning removes those pesky legal and ethical restrictions to allow the bike to realize its genetic potential. It's like having a child born from olympic athletes with genius-level IQs but binding its feet and gouging out an eye, maybe puncture a lung at birth because the government told you to. The kid, if it even survived to adulthood, would likely turn out to have some horrible life and left on its own, devolve into a paste-eating circus freak.

You don't do that to your kid, you don't do that to your bike. Of course I'll be tuning it! Just hadn't thought about a stage 2 until today. Now I'm thinking about it a lot.
