So who's got some custom tunes?

Has anyone been using the tune edit to modify any tunes and if so what are the results?
Maybe we could list some here and if people want to swap and experiment we could start getting some great custom tunes.

customs..

Haven't modded yet, but I'm working my way around to it, and I think others are too. Steep learning curve for us; I think the triples guys are way ahead of us in this, but their methods don't always translate to our 270's. So we are left with our sweaty moments when it's time to push that yellow Download button.....

I guess I'll go first

Alright let's see.
I based this on the standard 20184 (America/Speedmaster with TORs) I gutted the airbox, removed the snorkel and installed a K & N filter and the bike was running really lean, I was getting pretty good ecconomy (about 22-24km/l) but was lagging in pickup and sounded raspy/thin?? y'know what I mean. Anyway I tried the 20184_1 (pod filters and aftermarket exhaust with dynotune) It was fine but a lot of burble/popping on decel and still seamed thin at lower revs. So I exported all the fuel and timing maps to .csv and compared them to the standard tune. there were a few differences, but not as many as I would have thought, and mainly in the higher revs and throttle position.
So I thought I'd try one myself. I wont bore you with the details but I tried to get the A/F ratio's closer to 13:1 from about the 5% TP upwards.
Anyway the bike runs fine and sounds better and seems to have a bit more midrange torque/response. It could just be a placebo effect so if some of you would like to give it a try and give me some feedback I'd be happy.

N.B. .dat files are not supported so I've changed the file extension to .jpg
Just change it back and you should be fine, if not pm me and I'll email it.
