Old man on a bike
On both of my R3Ts I have run the de-restricting tune without any TORs on the bike. I seldom lug my engine and I've had a rule...If I get below 1500 to 1800 RPMs, shift down to a lower gear or the bike would kind of jerk/surging (not terribly bad mind you) but like I needed a lower gear. The beast did not like to be lugged down much below 1800. This was especially problematic in 3rd, 4th, and 5th gears.
Since I just recently put on a set of TORs along with a Paul Bryant crossover pipe, all of that is now gone. The bike is smooth as glass easily down to 1000 RPMs regardless of what gear I am in. No more jerking or feeling like I needed to pick a lower gear. It's a different bike in those lower RPM ranges now.
My thought is... it was a little rich in the AF mixture without the TOR's, even though I haven't done anything to the intake side to lean things out. I have the Ramair, but just haven't put it on and re-tuned it.
What a difference with just that change. Oh, BTW...my MPG is up as well.
