Nels can give you as much engine braking as you want btw. Have it your way!

To properly tune and get perfect 14.7 stoichiometric air-fuel ratio, a dyno tune is the only way you can get it. It's costly but well worth it if you are looking for max HP or individual ride-ability. "Dynoed maps" are only a very rough baseline. Every engine is a little different. Small variations in tooling, castings, ports, assembly etc, make each engine off the assembly line distinct.Forget the dyno. Get a flash. I have a PCV too. I got a dynoed map for mine from a member for free. It rips.
It took a little time but I have learned to adapt to the characteristics of this bike just fine as is. Even in sport mode I'm able to control the throttle and clutch to minimize or maximize the engine braking.Agreed, mine still has some engine braking but the transition between off throttle and back on is so much smoother now.
Sounds like a Burger King commercial!!Nels can give you as much engine braking as you want btw. Have it your way!

Yes 100% true!! The two best investments I made to my Super Tenere was an advanced off road riding school and mounting open block knobby tires to it for the added traction needed.Professionally I rode often at very high speeds on a factory bike.
Skills is what you really need to perform on a higher level.
Flashing cannot make up for poor skills..
There you go Chris. I've corrected your post and saved loads of salad. No charge...Take the money you would spend on the flash and spend it on a flash. Yamaha engineers designed this engine to meet emissions standards yet still be able to run acceptably.
But, many here have gone after a flash specifically to remove it.
Spoken so strongly by one that has never ridden a reflashed bike. Try riding a reflashed bike one day and you'll do a 180° and then sit down for a nice crow lunch....Take the money you would spend on the flash and spend it on riding skills, suspension upgrades, tires, brakes or anything else that makes the bike handle or stop better.

I do not recommend a flash. Yamaha engineers designed this engine to run outstanding while still meeting the emission requirements. The engine braking in sport mode is brilliant!!...
I have owned and ridden a dyno tuned bike with near perfect AF ratio and a bunch of emission deletes. And a bunch more bikes I tuned by jetting and exhaust/air intake modifications.Spoken so strongly by one that has never ridden a reflashed bike.
