This is all getting a bit silly and heated. This whole thing stems from one fitting on one bike that on that day made 3hp less than the Termi slips. I don't disbelieve Waf at all. AR have quoted from the results they found, they have a very good reputation and I have had great customer service from them and they have dyno'd many panigales now and they are passionate about the bikes and making their products as good as possible. I have no affiliation to AR at all by the way but having met Rich, had my termi system mapped by him using the Rapidbike I liked him and what they are doing at AR.
From the back of this I allowed them to use my bike to develop this system and dyno it as much as they like over winter. On the tests they have run they have seen the results that they have quoted over the past few months. What is true is that my bike made 176whp with the original up map and Termi system, now it makes 191whp, is much lighter, sounds insane, has a much fuller midrange and looks better.
People are talking about the Akra (who make great products) but no one has even seen one of these in the flesh let alone tuned one. Maybe it will be great maybe not.
I think AR have been amazingly open and have only reported as they have found things, they are trying (and Id say succeeding) in producing some seriously great products for our bikes, they are bikers first and foremost, not a big company at all, AR is basically Rich.
Lets all just calm down, forums always get like this no matter what the subject. I'm getting my bike back tomorrow and ill ride over the weekend and give my views of the AR including riding in town without the heat shield.
Personally I am very happy thus far, I hope Waf will see the results he wanted and he is happy with his AR system as many other (non forum) buyers are.
