    I've put on an akrapovic can and new s pipe road legal. I've taken the baffle out, sounds great but even with the baffle in the fuelling seems a bit snatchy. Is this normal. I'm not after superb take off warp speed but I would like the fuel delivery smoothing at low revs and definitely on throttle shut down. Seems like I don't need brakes when I shut the throttle these days.

    My question is will a power commander smooth this feature out?? Also is it the best way to do it?? and the best bit of kit? My friend keeps talking about a bazaazz?? Just would like my smooth blade back ( without putting the standard exhaust back on clearly)

    Cheers

    Either will sort out the fueling to be honest mate.

    Just down to your own preference.

    Get it set up on a pc5 or bazzaz and it will be smooth with great delivery

    Might sound like a stupid question, but how did you remove the baffle? Assuming that you have the same can as I do (road legal version - see below), it looks to me like the bolt head is inside the baffle with no way of getting an allen key on to it...! I admit however that I haven't taken the can off the bike yet to have a proper look....

    Your right mate, I took mine out while can was off.

    Mine runs ok, but I've just got a power commander and will get custom map

    maybe stick on an O2 eliminator, it will prevent the blade leaning out in closed loop.

    Yes. This is the first thing to do.
