At first I was kinda disappointed of the non existent bottom end and keeping under 7k (was truly difficult) but after the awesome service dept @ pro Italia they informed me that there's a new map they needed to load. My first ride experience : wow this thing is a rocketship. Mind you I'm only 148 lbs. the idle is smoother , no more stalls , and the power is just incredible. Just thought I'd share |

After my first oil change, the bike is much smoother, seems to have more power, and the heat went way down. I think it has to do with the rings are finally settling down. The more miles I put on it the better the bike gets.

They referred to as a recal that my bike needed bsp or bst map. when I first rode it was just smooth and a slight power increase was noticeable. Put it race mode and wow my arms were going to come off lol sorry that's the best I can describe it. Please don't take my word for it but I'm sure Pro Italia in SoCal can attest to this matter.

i did have a new map as well, stock exhaust. i didnt know they put in the new map, and on my way back from the dealer,i noticed the smoother throttle (i always leave the bike in race mode, so dont know if this is the same on other modes), not sure about the increased power as i cant feel it, never ride the bike slow enough to feel the heat either haha. called them up when i get home and they confirmed that there was a map update.

And also did you nice that the throttle is more even ? I mean like when I'm cruising 4th gear around 55mph I would feel that it would buck a little. Like hiccups. Now it's solid. Bro put it on Race mode and gun it. Makes me wonder why I could keep it under 7k this whole time lol | |

Gotta say though, first gear tootling around town is a PITA. It's like riding a bucking horse through the school zones!! ![]() Wind a bit of throttle on and it's creamy revving goodness. ![]() ... and that quickshifter... with the "pop" on the up shift... man!! | |
