I'll take some better pics soon but here's the system on the bike. With the ECU reflash the bike rides soooooo much better and the sound of this exhaust is killer! It's loud but not obnoxious and has that classic sound. Little bit of decel popping but I'm working that out and it's very minor. No DB killers so that's what you get. Pulls so much harder and the throttle response is superb and linear across rpms. The sheer pleasure of hitting the starter button and snapping the throttle is enough to put a smile on your face every time.

Aesthetically my bike hasn't really changed a whole lot except for the headers and pipes, mirrors, throttle body covers gone and took out the plastic spark plug covers.

I have a rizoma "one" mirror on, which I just acquired. Pricey but it's an awesome mirror if you want that classic look but low profile. They just came out with it.

I have MAS front and rear fenders on the way, already have the racer aluminum side panels, and the stucchi luigi aluminum alternator cover. All of that is getting powder coated matte black before install; no more plastic.

Suspension upgrades will come after that at some point. Want to change the headlight bucket out too, and possibly the gauges. I like motogadget's single gauge chronoclassic...pricey though.

Pockets aren't deep enough right now. Oh yea, I would love a pair of those Borrani wheels for tubeless.

Thanks for the post Franco. Glad you like it. I love the sound too, and the power delivery is 100% better over stock, right? Much less the overall weight it saved.
Look forward to sorting the fueling for the pop-on-decel when I'm in town... it's not related to the db-killers at all, especially with the re-flash. Hopefully we won't find an exhaust leak, which may be the problem still.

Sorry about the shitty pics (thanks for sorting that out Todd)...it was a fairly quick post so, I apologize.

It's really a no brainer, the bike is absolutely 100% better with Todd's reflash, no question. No more low speed jerking and pulling, or squeezing the clutch in every other second in a parking lot; smooth, even throttle response. Initial warm up is much quicker, seconds vs minutes. The bike gives you that visceral feeling that it just doesn't give you stock. The only downside is that I feel as though at any moment I'm going to be pulled over for speeding, because you just want to open it up every time to hear the music :) Best sounding cans I've heard yet, and they look so nice on the bike. I like that they're very slender vs the stock pipes (and some other aftermarket mufflers)...fits much better with the lines of the bike.

Todd's going to be in my hood, which is awesome, later this month to tweak it a little bit more, so looking forward to that.
 
Glad hear your enjoying it. This is my fear though, doing all the work to reflash the ecu then finding out its not 100% be it because of popping. If we all lived in Cali I'm sure its easy to deal with. Any plans to do a East coast shop or maybe a east coast ecu flash group buy, we could show up with our bikes and have them flashed and tuned all in one package? I would ride to a east coast location to have this done, like NY/NJ/NC or something.
