OK, who rode their bike for a while in stock form and then purchased the TOR's and had Triumph reflash the ECM with the factory tune for the TOR's. I would like to know how much of a difference there really is and where is the difference most felt. Anyone?

I noticed the bike stumble just a bit off of idle and then has a bit of a flat spot up top. Just wondering if the pipes and tune addresses this. :???:

I noticed quite a difference in throttle response! I've seen someone's dyno results of like a 8hp gain with the TOR's and remap. Can't remember who it was, but pretty sure it was one of them Arizona boys!

No problems with throttle response with stock cans or tors.
Mind you never pushed the bike with the stock cans due running in, but never had flat spots or stumbles.

Sounds like a go, I found some used ones for $250. It is a friend of the guy who owns the local Triumph shop and he is going to remap for free. Quess I can't really pass this up.
Thanks for the input.

What do you mean by stumbles off idle? You're talking 1400rpm? I guess maybe I could see that but I don't really run the engine that low. I haven't noticed any kind of flat spot up top. It's just power, power and more power from 3000rpms on up.

Ok. Sorry for being a total n00b, but what does TOR mean? What is it an acronym of? Some kind of slip-on system?
