I tune exactly opposite of what ray suggests, his street numbers are my track numbers and his track numbers are my street tuning.
SO just like you said , the lower numbers the more you like it? -sure the idle lopes if you try to get it under 1100 but she PULLS like a freight train without that torque dip in the middle, am I right? bell curve smooth until power shuts off. just shift before 9 or 10K and change your sprocket ratio -great for the drag strip or a power hungry hooligan wheelie addict. so the engine has more overlap - pollutes with more CO and HC's at idle uses more gas and has a unsettled steady cruise . but it is ready to whip the tach needle without fore notice.
compared to your starting point?
110/110 or 112/112 is perfect for street riding/cruising - less overlap, will pass emissions, idles super smooth -cruises at 2000 and is great up to 4700 then you DO have a distinct torque dip just above normal cruising RPM- ok wait for it and the power comes back over 6500K - To me that is great for the street because of the economy it offers from idle to 5K - who really rides like they want to go to jail all the time?
Now before I wear out my welcome and since I have everything backwards- I'd like to hear some more about the expanded lobe centers instead of equal .Last edited by trippivot; 12-13-2015, 11:10 PM. Reason: removed reduntant suggestion about nitrous lobe center.SUZUKI , There is no substitute

I looked at Trippivot's post and have to say, outside the US where we don't have to pass emissions tests, on old bikes anyway...I find that a setting which will give good response right through the range suits both track and street. By track, I'm specifically saying roadrace which of course on tight modern tracks will favour midrange anyway...Last edited by GregT; 12-13-2015, 11:38 PM.

Bear in mind that for decades, 2 valve singles were using inlet lobe centers from 96deg to 100 deg but the exhausts were stuck at 110 deg...But that was with megaphone exhausts and they simply had no midrange....
