I have a bad habit to reprogram ECU all the time and try this and that. I just noticed, that i have reprogrammed ECU over 100 times and was like wtf. Better stop and maybe i share what i have done, so you don't have to be dork like me.

Anyways, original ignition map sucks. Values goes here and there too. I guess it is optimised for emission with restricted throttle valves. No way the maximum power comes under 30 degrees ignition advance in this big cylinders. Also low end was too lazy into my taste. Now the bike feels pretty much how i want it to be and got nice gain in useful areas. It is not dynoed, except with my accurate butt dyno. lol
If you look maps in graphic mode, you can see how crazy hasslings those are. I made them all pretty.

I have 31018 map myself, use European 95E lower octane and stock bike (except DNA-filter). I downloaded all TuneEcu maps for different regions and imported in those all my tune for F, I, ETV and AFR. It looks like all those had the same maps... at least those which i checked. I tried to attach maps here, but it's restricted to ten files. If you want to try my crazy unrestricted maps, here is download link:

Just select the map with the same number that TuneEcu shows from your bike.

If you want to try, notice that ignition advance is much earlier, different fuel and lower octane than 95E might cause detonation/knocking/pinging. I managed to have it few times before got it pretty good. If you hear like pinging noise, turn back home and adjust whole ignition map couple degrees lower, copy it to all gears and test again. Fuelling is probably a bit too rich and with dyno might find couple ponies more, but i have not easy access for that. It would be amazing, if somehow could get precise fuelling maps in my base maps.

And of course, you test maps at your own risk.
 
It is two spark plugs per cylinder and low revs.
These are some dyno runs with the 2.3 Rocket with different ignition advance. (Torque in Nm)
("Zündung Grad vor OT" is ignition degrees BTDC)
There is no need for big advance numbers. It just puts stress on the engine.
But I agree that at lower throttle openings you can get some gains. This area is controlled by emission laws and it is about NOX.

Yes, in higher load advance should be less. I iterated different angles and caps and this map was the best i found. At lower revs it should drop more or it starts pinging when open throttle. But if you look original map, it looks crazy hassling and that 22 degree advance doesn't make sense either as it is not supposed to open throttle bodies 100% originally. In my map advance rise relatively less when revs goes higher.

Those high values in original map is for engine breaking. Now it burble a bit, but i think it's just cool and i prefer that.

I did drive today like six hours at mountains with big grin. It is just so much better at areas you use at twisties. Traction control has to work way more too. When you cruise and hit throttle, it just shoots away instantly. With original ignition map you sometimes notice it has more power when you ease throttle a bit and it's annoying,

If you get Rocket on dyno, test this map and would be super cool, if you could trim it and fuelling with proper tools.
 
And of course there is more fuel where is more advance.

I forgot to say that center cylinder runs hottest, rear one a bit colder and front one coldest. I made spreadsheet and tested a bit. I have termal camera in my phone. Of course it's not super accurate way to do it and there is two layers of metal in headers, but looks like the best result is comparing to F3 somewhere F2 +0,9 % more fuel and F1 -0,9% less in every cells. The bike runs butter smooth when cruising, but of course triple starts rocking everywhere when put more load and nothing to do for that. I have that fuelling difference in my maps.
