I can see some serious mods there. What with the wheels, forks, yokes and exhaust there must be some money spent there.

48PS/60Nm looks about right for a DNA stage 2 set up, O2 Optimizer and Power Commander. I can see the Akrapovic cans, but what you got under the seat?
Well, exactly that. Exhaust with DB killer. Hopefully tomorrow i can download the PCV tune and share it on the forum.

And it is very white. I already swapped the engine guard for one in the original colour. I might change more in the future, but for now it is OK.

Do I win a prize? ;)

I used to have Akrapovic cans. I found you gain a tiny amount of power at the top end by removing the dB killers, but at the expensive of torque lower down the revs. I always thought the bike was smoother with them in. Trouble with Akras is not so much the dB killers, but the fact they contain cats which rob power.

I now have an Exan single system without a cat, which releases another 1.5hp on the same set up.

Well, you'll be on to the next round, that's for sure! :icon_cheers:

did you (need to) change the fueling after going from Akrapovic to the Exan?

I've put up an ad for my Akrapovic. Although it sounds good and civilised, i would like a single can setup

Not entirely necessary, the stage 2 + Akrapovic map will work well enough, but to gain the full effect you would have to visit a dyno. However, you wouldn't need to, as luckily you're an XT Supporter so you can download my map which has been uploaded to the PCV maps database in the "Ask Kev" section. My set up is exactly the same as yours (or would be with an Exan).
