short while ago put a set of jardine drags on my bike. had it re mapped and dialed in. got right at 101 hp and 114 tq. bike runs fantastic mid and upper end but seams to not have as good of low end, right off the bottom power. is this common to have to give a little on on one end to get better at the other? don't get me wrong not complaining and wouldnt trade it back just curious? might just be me. what it feals like is lack of back pressure at lower rpm's.

When tuning for low end torque you will loose some top end. If you tune for max power on the upper end you will loose low end power. You just can not have it both ways.
However, at 101 hp and 114 tq. you should have plenty to be happy witIf you add baffles or quiet baffles you will most likely gain some low end back but will most likely lose some on the upper end. A good 2 into 1 will help some. dd
