Hey @Sparkle_Tooth, those drag pipes sound like an interesting upgrade! I'm curious, what made you decide to go with DNK Tuneworks for the retune? Maybe sharing that could spark some discussion!

 

I went with DNK Tuneworks simply because I saw someone else recommend them and then I did some research into what they do. There doesn't seem to be a lot of options for tuners that have a turnkey solution. Currently my ECU is with them getting a tune so I am looking forward to seeing how it turns out with the new pipes.
In preparation I have already removed the stock pipes, which I have to say is a complete PITA to get the CAT out. With the newer watercooled bikes you need to remove the frame rails from both sides since they are now welding the pipes to the CAT. So glad to be rid of that cinderblock.

 

I am considering this on my T120 Black. How did the pipes and DNK tune work out for you? Would you do it again? Thanks, Ed

 

Overall it was a good experience. I was under a time crunch and they were able to work with me for a really quick turn around time.

as for the tune itself I can’t say for sure it is a notable difference. If anything I feel like it is sluggish starting from a stop. The pipes sound great though and the tune serves its purpose I suppose give the Cat removal and open pipes.

i have been thinking of finding a place to do a proper tune/dyno but haven’t really researched in depth. If anyone knows of a good place to do a dyno in East Tn, I’d love to know where.
