TORS noise on touring decel

Excuse me if I am asking something that is known or normal as I am still learning my ride. With the help of this forum and its knowledgeable members I have done much reading and followed suit in taking my bike from stock and am starting to derestrict it. This morning at 5 am I could wait no more and headed out to the garage and installed a set of near new TORS I purchased and installed a map that HansO was good enough to give me for my setup. I have an under the seat K&N which might be upgraded soon as I am really liking the feel of my ride. Once mapped and run for the 12 minute tune I blipped my throttle and noted what sounded like a raspy noise on return to idle. I took the bike out for a 30 minute road test and it can be heard on decel so it is consistent. Now I do not know if this might be normal and I had not noticed it with the stock pipes, or if it is due to the increased flow the TORS offer, or if it is just an effect of the tune. I mainly inquire as I feel like it is coming from the right pipe and not the left. I don't feel it will be detrimental to my ride but I'm a little OCD with this bike as it is the most expensive thing I have ever owned aside from my home. I know Harleys do not have equal flow and am wondering if this is the same case with triumph. To rule it out I might just toss on a set of D&D slip ons I have for it and see if the raspy sound follows but before doing so I thought I would ask out here.

If it is coming from one muffler while both mufflers are fed from the same source I am guessing you have one muffler with possibly a faulty or loose baffle

Or an air leak where it clamps up.

Yup, I was hoping that is not the case. Not loose for sure as I inspected them thoroughly. I guess trying the D&D's will tell me if that is the truth or not.

Don't think so but I will most certainly double check as I hadn't thought of that.

Okay I have my tail between my legs. I made a mistake and it was noticed after the previous replies. I went out to my garage and fired my bike up, no leaks, my tenant came out so I asked a favor to blip the throttle as I sat at the rear of the bike. The noise is equal in both pipes. I think I was wrong as my reach was limited when initially testing and I really only heard one side of the exhaust. So maybe its a normal sound? Might be that I have to get used to it. Maybe the D&D will answer these questions for me. Again my apologies for misleading. Any other thoughts on the light rasp would be appreciated.

enjoy the pipes
u might want to get your ears checked

Maybe move to medium growl or loud roar? And ride closer to the falls so nobody hears .

And practice saying "Yes officer, I know it's loud but it is 50% bigger than a Harley after all - what's a bloke to do?!"

It may well be that you simply have to get used to the different sound Brenner.
Give it a few days of riding and see how you feel after that.
If still in doubt you could try throwing on the D&D set, but be aware that they will probably make a different sound again.

No need to apologise for asking a dumb question, that's always better than getting a dumb result because you didn't ask.

No need to apologize I think you will find most of us will have made a mistake or two... I lost count years ago you at least owed up to it before We all scratched what remaining hair we have out trying to work out your problem
