It really feels smoother and perhaps faster. Maybe i'm just getting more used to it. Had it at the fire station, all the guys thought it was sweet. Several of them are harley owners, and had never seen or considered the rocket before, they were quite taken with it. She sure is easy on the eyes!
 
Robm, I had exactly the same experience, much smoother and felt snappier after the first service.

I can verify however, that the fist service doesn't include a ninja flash as I'd made a change to the base tune and it was still present when I picked it up.
 
Out with the dinosaur oil and in with the synthetic - makes a big difference. Wait till you have a couple of thousand miles and see how it is when it really frees up.
 
free flowing exhaust + free flowing (Ramair) air filter then a dyno will net you 30 to 40 extra HP
